Dr. Heide Nielsen - Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine

Tongbu Wellness Center was born through my healing journey that required synchronicity between several healing modalities. The name Tongbu, which means "walk with me" in Mandarin, was inspired by my experience. At Tongbu Wellness Center, our clients get the best of many healing paths under one roof.
As a Doctor of acupuncture and integrative medicine, I specialize in chronic illness, which includes but is not limited to autoimmune disorders, chronic pain, digestive disorders, TMJ pain (jaw pain), early onset of stroke, and cancer support. My studies in Tianjin and Beijing, China, enhanced my knowledge and enriched my passion for Chinese medicine and all that it has to offer.
"Every time I walk into Tongbu Wellness Center® I instantly relax. This is where I go to renew my mind and body. I have been a long-time patient of Dr. Heide's because of her unique holistic approach to health and wellness. Whether it is a acupuncture to rejuvenate my aching body or to get my digestion back on track, Heide takes care of me from head to toe."

Wanda Voelker - Licensed Massage Therapist

I grew up both giving and receiving massages, which eventually led to my training at the National Holistic Institute in Berkeley, CA. I firmly believe that massages are not a luxury but an essential tool for self-care, promoting both mental and physical health.
In my massage practice, I employ a combination of various modalities, including Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, and Shiatsu techniques. Guided by intuition, I create a relaxing yet healing experience that can also be tailored for prenatal and pain management massage.

Chuck Drefs - Spiritual Mediumship

I use my mediumship to tap into what's going on in a person's life on a spiritual level. This allows me to see things that may need healing and further help the process along. I can tap into the root of what is causing pain or anguish, whether it is happening currently, or whether it is residual from a loved one passing or traumatic experience.
Everyone has guides, and with my gift, I have the capability to work with them to create a healing and harmonious experience. Call
