Kim Silsby Licensed Acupuncturist
Kim Silsby, MTCM, L.Ac.
Kim is a California and Nationally licensed acupuncturist and herbalist since 2003. Kim earned her Masters in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California.
A Masters degree in TCM is a four year accredited full time program of study. California acupuncturists complete 25 hours of continuing education annually to remain current and to maintain their license.
Kim earned her BA in women's literature and writing in her home state at the University of Missouri. During that time she became interested in the use of botanical medicine and began researching it. She later worked as the office manager for a holistic health center in New England with several acupuncturists and naturopathic doctors. She observed patients getting great results with acupuncture and Eastern medicine, and she enjoyed the benefits of treatment herself. That experience inspired her to attend grad school for traditional Chinese medicine in California.
She has worked in various settings: IVF fertility clinics, women's cancer support centers, El Camino Hospital Labor and Delivery in Mountain View, CA. She established White Peony Acupuncture in Los Altos in 2005 and practiced there until 2022. In early 2022, Kim and her husband relocated to the Sacramento area. She established Rose Gold Health in Granite Bay to continue providing holistic health care to patients.
Kim has completed the following post-graduate trainings:
TCM Obstetrics with Raven Lang
Master Tung's Acupuncture with Susan Johnson
White Pine Institute Graduate Mentorship with Sharon Weizenbaum
