Thank You and Farewell Laura ~
May the long time sun 
Shine upon you
And the pure light within you
Guide your way on.
In September, after six and a half years at The Teal Center, Laura Berkebile and her family are moving to Texas. During her time here with us Laura's generous and compassionate service as an acupuncturist has helped many on their paths to healing. Her sense of humor and calm spirit have been a gift to all of us. We will truly miss her. Our warmest wishes to Laura and her family as they move on to new adventures! If you'd like to send a message to Laura at feelbetter@tealcenter.com we'll pass it along to her.
