Sophia “Sophie” Zega is a nationally board-certified and Oregon-licensed Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist dedicated to sharing her expertise with the community. She earned her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (DACM) from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in 2024, after completing a degree in Molecular Biology at Bard College in New York.
