My story

Meet Pauli Iida

My own journey into healing began with that same longing. I discovered acupuncture while searching for relief and transformation in my own life. My first treatment was deeply profound—it awakened something within me and nourished a deep inner hunger. That experience eventually led me to leave my career as a biology field technician and begin my studies in acupuncture on the Big Island of Hawaii in 2003.

After the birth of my first son, I transferred to the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in Portland, where I earned my Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in 2010. The transition from biology to Eastern Medicine felt natural—my love of nature and deep connection to the elements found a new expression in this ancient healing art.In 2017, I began studying Kiiko Matsumoto Style (KMS) acupuncture, a powerful and precise method rooted in Japnese medicine and modern clinical insights. I became certified in KMS in 2023, and this approach has profoundly enriched my practice, offering tangible, lasting results for my patients.In addition to acupuncture, I teach meditation and support others in reconnecting to their inner light. Whether through the needle, the breath, or quiet reflection, my aim is to help others experience their wholeness and align with the natural flow of life.
