Alyson Adams, MAOM, LAc

Alyson brings a fresh approach to Traditional Chinese Medicine, combining a Master of Science degree from Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM) in Portland, Oregon and a Bachelor of Arts in Human Development from Boston College.

Alyson is a board certified Diplomate of both Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine by the NCCAOM and is licensed in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. While attending OCOM, the first school in the country to offer an accredited doctoral program in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, she was able to gain experience in a variety of health settings. Among them included interning at Oregon Health and Science University working alongside both an MD and LAc. This experience allowed her to see how eastern and western medicine can be integrated together to create wellness in her patients. She also has experiences working with seniors and chronic pain management.

Alyson has studied both Chinese and Japanese styles of acupuncture and treats a wide variety of complaints. She has a special interest in internal medicine, specifically digestive disorders, headaches, and women's health and infertility.

Shauna Massahos

Shauna is a licensed massage therapist offering massage services at the Northeast Center for Holistic Medicine. In addition to traditional Swedish massage, Shauna also specializes in prenatal massage.

Diane Riley

Diane is a graduate of the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, the world’s premier institute of hands-on energy work and transformational approaches. She is a Reiki Master as well as a facilitator of Family Constellations, an experiential method that explores entanglements and loyalties held with in the family system.

Since 1995, Diane has devoted herself to exploring and studying ancient and modern healing modalities. By blending aspects of both viewpoints in her healing work, she has been privileged to assist many individuals so they may experience greater health, emotional well-being and a deeper spiritual connection.

Diane believes each person ultimately does his or her own healing. Health care practitioners simply assist someone in their healing process. She provides a unique approach that offers support, guidance and teaching so that individuals can access their “healer” within. Her assistantship calls upon cognitive and relational theory, intuitive knowing, kinesthetic awareness, guided imagery and hands-on energy work.

Diane is also very involved with the VNA Hospice of Manchester. She provides training for individuals interested in becoming Hospice volunteers, facilitates bereavement groups for adults and children, offers respite to Hospice patients and their families and trains healthcare staff about “compassionate care giving” for the dying.

Diane is a passionate seeker of all things which bring wholeness to one’s life. She enjoys yoga, hiking, walking and reading.

She looks forward to helping individuals experience a greater sense of balance in mind, body and spirit.
