Lyndsey Cordova is a licensed and board certified Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, functional medicine practitioner and the founder of Kōena. She was born and raised in Longmont, CO.

 

Lyndsey comes to eastern medicine from the Western biomedical field. Having been a surgical assistant for 16 years, she specialized in facial plastic surgery, ophthalmology and ENT/reconstructive surgery. She has thorough training in the anatomy and nerve pathways of the face and was fortunate enough to go through advanced training with a board certified ENT/ plastic surgeon. Her skills in the OR included advanced surgical skills like suturing, tissue dissection, incision making and injections.

 

While working in the OR, in 2016, Lyndsey became very sick, very fast. After 4 months and 6 MD visits, she still had no diagnosis. While going through that process, she turned to traditional Chinese medicine and functional medicine, desperate for relief. After her first acupuncture treatment, she slept through the night for the first time in weeks. A functional medicine practitioner accurately diagnosed her and her symptoms began to improve. 

 

Lyndsey has always had a passion and deep understanding of the mind, body and soul connection. Combining the best of her biomedical training with her knowledge of TCM, she will provide an integrative, personal experience for all of her patients.

 

"My goal is to help people feel better. That's it. I want them to leave the clinic feeling refreshed and grounded, with their symptoms under control -- ready to take on their busy lives."

 

She earned her Master's degree in Acupuncture from Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, CO and her Doctorate from Pacific College of Health and Sciences in San Diego, CA. She is currently finishing her functional medicine certification at The School of Applied Functional Medicine. 

​

Lyndsey is a very proud mom to humans and doggos. She loves Colorado, her community and her family.

Caroline is a dedicated acupuncturist committed to providing thoughtful and patient centered care. She firmly believes in the inherent capacity of the human body to heal itself when in balance and strives to create a comfortable and supportive environment for each individual. She has a special interest in treating cases centered around women’s health issues, mental-emotional balance, digestion support, and facial rejuvenation techniques.

Her interest in natural and holistic medicine began after a lengthy battle with her own health issues. She was frustrated with the limitations of Western Medicine and wanted to seek alternative solutions. Discovering the transformative power of acupuncture and herbal medicine sparked a profound change in her life. Motivated by this personal journey of healing and transformation, she made the decision to return to school to study acupuncture. It wasn't just a career choice; it was a calling born out of a deep-seated desire to share the gift of healing with others and make a meaningful difference in their lives.

She graduated from Colorado Chinese Medicine University with a Master of Acupuncture Degree. Since graduation, Caroline has pursued certifications in microneedling and injection therapy to provide patients with even greater support on their journey to optimal health and wellness.

In practice, Caroline takes a personalized approach to each patient, taking the time to understand their unique needs and concerns. When she’s not practicing, you can find her exploring the beautiful state of Colorado, and spending time with her beloved dog and cat.
