Megan’s Medicine
Ancient Medicine. Modern Families. In Your Hands.
You already know there is a better way.
You reach for natural supplements before medicine. You ask questions your pediatrician can't always answer. You trust your instincts and you sense there is a deeper intelligence running through all of it: your body, your child's body, the rhythm of the seasons, the cadence of your own life.
And still, when suffering shows up, whether it's a fever that won't break, a child who can't sleep, an anxious mind, an upset stomach, or your own body asking for something you can't quite name, you don't always know where to start or what will actually work.
That is not a failure of instinct, that is a failure of access. You're not missing something, you're just missing someone to show you. That's what I'm here for!
I have sat across from so many mothers just like you.
Mothers who see the body holistically, but still feel lost when their children are suffering. Who want to do things naturally but don't know where to start and what will actually work. Who are searching for something more, not just a remedy, but a philosophy, a way of seeing the world that actually makes sense to them. Who sense there is a better way, but haven't found someone to show them. That is exactly why I built this.
I'm Megan Spaeth: a licensed acupuncturist since 2009, the owner of Jersey Shore Acupuncture clinic, and an eternal student of Chinese medicine, holistic health, and mind-body-spirit healing. I study under one of the world's most esteemed Chinese Medicine teachers, Dr. Jeffrey Yuen. He is an 88th generation Daoist priest whose lineage dates back to the classic texts. I am also a mother of three children who I have treated with this medicine since infancy.
I grew up in a traditionally Western household with no exposure to Eastern medicine like many of you. As a child, I had negative reactions to allopathic medicine and my mother searched for answers and holistic doctors. After wanting to be a pediatrician most of my life, I know what it is to come to this medicine from the outside and fall in love with it from the inside. That journey is part of why I teach the way I do: in a way a modern, Western mind can actually understand and internalize.
Chinese medicine is the original medicine. It is the deepest system of healing on earth, at least 3,000 years old, and is the root of most holistic healing branches. It treats the mind, body, and spirit as inseparable. It connects heaven and earth. It relates humanity as the microcosm and the universe as the macrocosm. I believe this medicine has the power to heal not just individuals, but families, communities and ultimately, the world around us. My mission is to take this ancient, thorough, deeply philosophical medical art and make it usable in your everyday life.
There are four ways to begin.
The Podcast
Megan’s Medicine is where the philosophy lives. I teach foundations of Daoist thought, yin and yang theory, the five elements and how they shape your personality, your organs, and the seasons around you. I’ll show you how to view illness and disorder through a Chinese medicine lens instead of a biomedical one. I talk a lot about dietary therapy, since food is one of the most accessible and powerful medicines we have. I share a lot of pearls of wisdom from my teacher and you will leave each episode with plenty of knowledge to implement in your life.

This medicine was never meant to stay behind clinic walls.
When I started studying Chinese Medicine in 2006, the average American knew very little about it. Today, more people are aware of or have tried acupuncture, but it is still treated as an occasional remedy rather than what it really is: a complete medical system capable of treating both acute and chronic conditions, addressing the mind, body, and spirit as one.
Modern allopathic medicine is extraordinary at saving lives and limbs in emergencies, but only around 3% of medical visits are emergencies! The rest of life—the fevers, the sleepless nights, the anxious minds, the everyday aches, the immune complications—deserves a medicine that treats the root, not masks the symptom.
For thousands of years, humans lived closely with nature. We listened to the seasons, we were in tune with the energy inside and around us, and we innately understand what food to eat and when. We lived according to cycles and flow. That is the medicine that maintains health and harmony. When more intervention is necessary, doctors came into the home and taught the family what to do to restore health.
My mission is to mainstream this ancient medical art and make it accessible to all. I do believe everyone should see an acupuncturist in a clinic regularly, but every patient who comes to mine is taught the medicine so it doesn't leave when the treatment fades. This is a strength of mine: to help it become your medicine, your own hands, your own intuition, in your own home.
Imagine knowing exactly what your body, and your child’s body, needs.
Not fear. Not guessing. A grounded relationship with the intelligence already living inside the body.
The fever comes and you stay calm and watch it go down. The nightmare wakes your child and you know which points to hold. The stomach aches and you know exactly where to tap and massage. Instead of suppressing symptoms, you help the body vent and harmonize, the way it is designed to.
This is bigger than any single remedy. It is a different relationship with your own body and your family’s health: rooted, confident, and connected to something much older and wiser than any of us.
That is what Megan’s Medicine is here to give you.
From Parents Who Have the Tools.
Real stories of healing, confidence, and connection at home.
This is incredible work that you’re doing. I tried your little suggestion for my daughter's fever, and miraculously saw the fever go down in 30 seconds. They all thought I was a magician 😄
Both of my children have experienced the beauty and benefits of Chinese medicine since before they were born -- in the womb. Over the years, Chinese medicine has become an invaluable part of how we support our family's health and well-being. One of the greatest gifts has been learning practical techniques I can confidently use at home, from acupressure points to herbal remedies -- thanks to Megan and her team. As a busy mom who values a holistic approach and is always looking for natural solutions to support my family's health, Chinese medicine has become my first line of defense for keeping our bodies healthy and resilient. Megan’s course teaches parents how to understand and support the body's natural ability to heal. It has been such a blessing for our family, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for safe, effective, and natural ways to raise healthy, happy children.
Megan’s course taught us so many helpful techniques and strategies including acupressure, spoon scraping, cupping, tuning fork therapy, and various herbs. My daughter has struggled with coughing her entire life and these treatments have truly been a lifesaver for us. Now when she does get sick, the cough is so much less and she heals so much faster. I feel so much better supporting her body with Eastern medicine rather than simply suppressing symptoms. Megan’s teachings have truly been such a blessing to our lives.
Megan’s techniques have helped our daughter tremendously. The acupressure points and protocols we do at home to aid her digestion, drain her sinuses and ears when sick, help her anxiety and assist with seasonal transitions and sleep. She introduced us to Gua sha, a technique that can nip a cold in the bud if done right at the start of sickness. We have used these techniques and many others since our daughter was a baby and continue to use these now into early adolescence. Megan provides us with easy, go to protocols that can be used by anyone!
Megan teaches with a calm, soothing nature and makes things so clear. My 10 year old son had a difficult time sleeping for his entire life and was always scared at night so we tried this course. We used both acupressure and cupping and he was sleeping peacefully through the night right away! I am extremely grateful for Megan’s course!
Megan’s Course is truly a gift for parents and caregivers! It has given me the authority to treat my children’s symptoms in the comfort of my own home with simple concrete techniques that truly work! I have the confidence and peace of mind knowing that I am applying tools that work with my child’s body and help to rebalance their systems! We use these treatments for lung and sinus issues, emotional outbursts, detox, and daily life. I highly recommend all parents to watch and learn from Megan’s wisdom!
