Meet the Team

Carrie Webster is a licensed acupuncturist in Maine and New Hampshire and nationally certified as a Diplomate in Acupuncture by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).  Growing up in Maine instilled her with a passion for nature and natural living.  She always wanted to be a doctor and started her career in medicine at the age of 18.  After 10 years in the Western medical field, she found Traditional Chinese Medicine and realized its mix of nature and medicine is exactly what she was looking for.  Carrie learned TCM at Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine College in Berkeley, CA and New York College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where she earned her master’s degree.  She then went on to earn her Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine degree from Pacific College of Health and Sciences.  Carrie returned to Maine and opened Atwell Acupuncture and Holistic Health in 2019. 

Emily is a graduate of the New England School of Acupuncture, where she provided accessible treatments to the Worcester community. She is currently NCCAOM board-certified and licensed in the great state of Maine. In college, Emily majored in Religious Studies and was inducted into the Theta Alpha Kappa honors society, which recognized her academic achievements in this field. This included studying Eastern philosophy and world history from a socio-cultural perspective. Her treatments bring you to a space where past and present meet, combining an ancient practice with science-backed technique. Emily will effortlessly guide you to ease of body and mind. She’ll meet you precisely where you’re at to provide you the best holistic care to reach your goals. Emily loves to play guitar, climb mountains, and snowboard down them.  

Ashley is a Licensed Massage Therapist who graduated from Harris School of Business in 2019. Prior to schooling Ashley spent a great deal of time working closely with the public before finally finding her calling as a LMT. She has always enjoyed exploring the connection between mind and body and is looking forward to integrating massage into the treatment plans here at Atwell. She takes pride in providing personalized care for each individual, tailoring her treatment to address specific concerns while promoting healing and relaxation. Outside of her professional career, Ashley enjoys spending time outdoors with her children, friends and family.

Michelle graduated from the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy in 1992 and has loved doing massage ever since. In her long and varied career, she has especially enjoyed working in conjunction with other health professionals in a holistic approach, to achieve the best results for her clients’ health.  For this reason, as well as her personal experience with the effectiveness of acupuncture, she is very excited to join the team at Atwell Acupuncture.

Michelle offers a unique blend of Swedish and Deep Tissue techniques that relieve chronic and acute pain and bring a deep sense of well-being. Grounding her practice in mindfulness meditation, she strives to create a feeling of calm awareness in each massage session.

Having grown up in Maine but spending most of the last 30 years in California, Michelle is now enjoying getting reacquainted with New England. She also loves cooking and gardening and finds being outdoors very healing.

Loumi (Loo-mee) for short, is at the clinic part time to supply us all with puppy joy.  All she asks for in exchange is belly rubs.
