Stephanie Salinas MSAc, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac
Master of Science in Acupuncture, Licensed Acupuncturist, Certified in Injection Therapy, Cosmetic Acupuncturist, Trained in Micro-needling, Cosmetic Cupping
Hi, I’m Stephanie and I’m a licensed acupuncturist in Denver, Colorado and in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I found the ancient modality of acupuncture through a personal struggle with emotional balance and well-being. After months of talk therapy in conjunction with acupuncture, I was able to triumph and regain my energy and enthusiasm about life. I found a renewed sense of purpose and decided to go back to school.
I earned my Master of Science in Acupuncture from the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine in December 2020. This 28 month program consists of 2,370 hours of education including 555 hours of clinical practice. I was certified as a Diplomate in Acupuncture by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) in September 2021. This includes certification in Clean Needle Technique. My training includes therapies and specialties such as: cosmetic acupuncture, headaches and migraines, pain, fertility acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, moxibustion, Tui-na, gua-sha, acupressure, cupping, auriculotherapy, dietary and lifestyle recommendations.
My treatment specialties include migraine, weight loss, facial cosmetic acupuncture and cupping, emotional balancing, and body pain. I have treated hundreds of patients with shoulder, QL, low back pain and knee pain with a high degree of success. My passion is making your life better and giving you the tools to self heal.

I am originally from Nebraska, and have been in Colorado for 16 years now, the last 6 in Colorado Springs. I come to Generations Acupuncture with more than 5 years medical billing experience. I changed career paths before moving here. My prior career was with Leprino Foods as laboratory foreperson with specialized training in dairy, cheese and whey testing. I trained numerous technicians and completed several training sessions. I have a degree in cheese making from Cal Poly Tech and certificate in Food Safety from KSU. I am currently working on completing my AAPC coding certification.
My sons were in middle school when we moved here, and they both have completed college with bachelor’s degrees. Both of them were very involved in sports, with my oldest son competing in college Rugby. My younger son was involved in band and was the high school mascot. On our time off, my husband and I enjoy time outdoors, riding motorcycles and enjoying those mountains! We like to travel and enjoy visiting friends and family, who live all over now. I look forward to meeting and getting to know you all!
