Cheryl Weatherby practices the Shen-Hammer lineage of Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis - a system working with more than 90 diagnostic qualities found across the pulse. She studied under senior instructor Ross Rosen as part of a 2000 hour internship at The Center for Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine (2006 - 2010), as his associate practitioner from 2012 - 2020, and continues to train with Shen-Hammer certified instructors across the country. In addition, Cheryl studied Ayurvedic pulse diagnosis from Dr. Vasant Lad at The Ayurvedic Institute and as part of the pancha karma certification program at The California College of Ayurveda (2003).

Cheryl is licensed in acupuncture, dipl. NCCAOM, and certified in hypnotherapy, craniosacral therapy, manual lymphatic drainage, chi nei tsang visceral manipulation, Thai yoga and Ayurvedic medicine. She began dissection training with Somanautics (2002) and taught gross anatomy for Laboratories of Anatomical Enlightenment.

Passionate about nutrition and health supportive cooking, Cheryl completed the Natural Gourmet Institute’s chef training program in New York City with culinary internship at Mercer Kitchen. She studied Chinese medicine dietary therapies throughout her graduate program at Eastern School of Acupuncture and Traditional Medicine and is trained in Kanpo Sino-Japanese herbology (Nigel Dawes), traditional Chinese herbal medicine, and Ayurvedic herbal medicine. Her nutrition counseling and Food as Medicine seminars emphasize dietary needs based on each person’s unique constitution and is influenced by lab work, applied kinesiology muscle testing, and emerging research.

While studying classical midwifery with The Russian Birth Project in St. Petersburg, Cheryl participated in 27 deliveries, performed prenatal, postpartum, and newborn exams in both hospital and home settings, and practiced traditional manual protocols for turning breech position. She works with both men and women to enhance fertility and provides treatment throughout all trimesters for symptom relief and prevention, to enhance immunity and health, and assist with mind/body/emotion labor preparation.

In addition to private practice, Cheryl has worked in doctors’ offices, community clinics, integrative medicine centers, and for the VA Health Administration.
