Meet Shuishan (Susan) Lui, L.Ac.
Licensed Acupuncturist & Founder
Healing is personal, and I’m honored to be part of your journey. With more than 20 years of acupuncture experience and a foundation in both Eastern and Western medicine, I bring a holistic perspective to every treatment.
My Journey
My medical career began in Guangzhou, China, where I graduated from Sun Yat-sen University of Medical Sciences with an M.D. and completed a specialized postdoctoral clinical training module in Neurology. I practiced general medicine for eight years at Guangdong Rehabilitation Hospital, with a subspecialty focus in neurology. I later pursued advanced academic studies at Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, completing certified clinical training in both acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine.

After relocating to the United States, I earned Diplomate status from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and became licensed by the State Medical Board of Ohio. I also hold eligibility status for certification to prescribe Chinese herbs from the State Medical Board of Ohio. I serve as a practitioner at the Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine, where I work alongside physicians across many specialties, and I am a lifetime member of the Ohio Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (OAAOM).
