Welcome to The Alternative Options

Holistic Health Clinic – Lansing, MI

Where acupuncture, energy medicine, and emotional integration work together


We are a holistic health clinic working with both physical symptoms and emotional patterns as they present in the body.



What This Means


People come in with stress, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and a wide range of chronic physical symptoms.


Often, these are not separate issues—they are different expressions of what the body is dealing with.


We focus on what is actually happening in the body—not just the diagnosis or label.



How We Work


We work with what is present in the moment, rather than focusing only on diagnosis or labeling.


Sessions are responsive and may include acupuncture, energy-based work, or emotional integration depending on what is showing up.


The goal is not to override the body, but to work with it in a way that allows things to shift more clearly.



What We Offer

We integrate a range of acupuncture, body-based, and energy-focused modalities, including:


  • Reiki
  • ThetaHealing®
  • Quantum Entrainment (QE)
  • Total Body Modification (TBM)
  • Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)
  • Hands-On Healing (Bengston Method)
  • Classical Five Element Acupuncture (Worsley Style)
  • Charlie Goldsmith's 'Emotion Integration'.


These approaches may be used individually or combined, depending on what is most appropriate for the session.



What People Come In For


We work with both physical and emotional concerns, often occurring together.


This includes:

  • Anxiety, stress, depression, and emotional overwhelm
  • Burnout, exhaustion, and feeling stuck or disconnected
  • Chronic pain, tension patterns, and persistent physical symptoms
  • Headaches, sleep issues, and stress-related physical conditions
  • Digestive issues and other functional physical complaints
  • Support during medically intensive periods, including cancer care


Many people come in with a physical issue that has not fully responded to other approaches. Others come in because of emotional stress that feels persistent or unresolved.


Often, both are present.



What This Is Not


This is not a symptom suppression model.


We do not work by overriding the body or forcing change.


We do not separate emotional experience from physical experience when they are clearly connected.


And we do not rely on one fixed method, because the body does not present in one fixed way.



Why People Work With Us


  • Sessions are individualized and responsive
  • We work with both physical and emotional patterns together
  • Multiple modalities are available within one integrated framework
  • Emotional processing is addressed directly when it arises
  • Care can be collaborative with other healthcare providers when appropriate


A Simple View of Healing


Healing is a process, not a moment.


Change happens when the body stops working against itself in that moment.


Our focus is on working with what is present in a way that allows this to occur more clearly—whether that shows up physically, emotionally, or both.


Over time, this can support greater stability in both emotional experience and physical well being, not just during treatment, but in daily life.
