Body Positive Acupuncture empowers patients to foster a positive relationship with their bodies.
Body Positive Lens
A body positive lens aims to heal the wounds that may have come from diet culture, weight discrimination/stigma, ageism, heterosexism, racism, classism, gender bias, a consumerist-driven society, personal and/or medical trauma, and various other factors.
The Intention
The intention is for patients of Body Positive Acupuncture to know that there is an exit ramp from diet culture, that it is possible to unlearn damaging misinformation about our bodies, and to trust in the body’s ability to communicate its needs.
The Result
The result is that patients will understand that their intuition is their primary care provider—they are born with it—and they can cultivate the ability to listen to and follow their intuition.

Patient Reviews
“I have been seeing Robin for acupuncture for over a decade. I initially tried acupuncture for the physical benefits and was really surprised at the mental benefits I felt as well. Robin is a kind and thorough practitioner, her facilities are fantastic (she always has the table warm for me since I'm always cold), and booking through her online platform is super easy (though she's just as happy to book in person too). I cannot recommend her enough!”

“I have been a more-than-satisfied client of BodyPositive Acupuncture/Robin Harris for over 10 years. I happened to win a one-time session in a charity auction, and was immediately hooked. The quality of care I receive from Robin is beyond any of my expectations, then and now. Her knowledge of the benefits of acupuncture and how to maximize those benefits is expansive. Her intuitive abilities to know what is needed, where, when and how during a session leaves me renewed and healed every time. She answers any and all questions in an understandable and informative manner, makes the most amazing referrals, and is able to enhance the mind-body-spirit connection perfectly. The facility is spotless and always well-maintained, and the vibe in her waiting room, as well as the service area, are worth the visit alone. Her online booking system is extremely accurate and user-friendly, and Robin is always available to make concessions when needed. I am overjoyed that I found her 10 years ago, and look forward to a long and healthy client-practitioner relationship. I highly recommend her services to anyone in search of a unique healing approach to wellness”
