Dr. Bailey Mojarrad
Bailey's initial love for the fine arts drove her towards creating a life for herself as an artist, and after graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2011 she found herself in an economic situation many would expect from someone working as a fine artist. Bleak. Through many twists of fate and the guidance of an incredible friend, she pivoted to holistic healing through National Holistic Institute pursuing a life as a massage therapist. Realizing the potential of this new passion, she had to take it just one step further and earned an extra diploma for advanced neuromuscular therapies in 2015. In total it was 1350 hrs of learning which launched Bailey into several modes of operations: providing luxury spa massage at the Bay Club Marin, joining the incredible Dr Rina Tinozzi Chiropractic team, while also steadily building a private practice. Then in 2018, along came a boy who dared question why not just go a bit further.....why not pursue a degree in Acupuncture? He casually dropped this question after seeing the massive Deadman Acupuncture textbook on her bookshelf. Yes she was reading it on a whim.
Fast forward to Nov 2019, Bailey was driving solo cross country in a used truck bought only a month prior while towing a vintage 1965 Shasta Trailer figuring it would be her home for the foreseeable future. You only live once right? Her first day of Acupuncture school was at MUIH (formerly known as Tai Sophia 5 Elements) Jan 5, 2020. By March everyone had scattered to the winds attempting to navigate distance learning while preparing for the worst, hoping for the best. But what was best?
This was just another pivot point for Bailey who quickly saw the need for change and switched enrollment over to Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts located in beautiful Asheville North Carolina.
Finally in May of 2024 on a perfectly sunny afternoon, Bailey graduated from Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts with a Masters and Doctorate degrees in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. Dr Bailey is certified through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and licensed to practice in the state of North Carolina. She combines her background knowledge in whole body holistic care with the intricacies of Chinese Medicine to provide treatments for unique individual care.
Forever looking for that moment to help patients realize their own ability to pivot towards change and embrace all that comes with progressing forward, and eternally grateful to be able to live this life always with the arts.
By the way, in case you were wondering about whatever happened to that boy with so many questions? She ended up taking his last name.
