PUSH San Diego

Alisa Galvan is an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant, Licensed Acupuncturist, and Degreed Nutritionist. She has held space for mothers and their families with nutrition, prenatal, birth, and lactation support for more than 15 years. Alisa has been practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine for more than 10 years working with a range of clients from veterans to children successfully treating an even larger variety of symptoms and imbalances, but her passion has always been working with families around fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. This passion was further highlighted as she journeyed into motherhood herself and searched out resources to support her own pregnancies and postpartum phases. Alisa’s background working in a variety of modern health care systems has ignited her passion to learn, study and practice modalities that are more natural, holistic, and individualized. She uses food as medicine in all her treatment plans and is passionate about helping her clients connect to and regain trust in their bodies using breath to movement. She loves educating families about breast/chest-feeding as well as the importance of postpartum care. Alisa is compassionate in her search for the root cause of her patients’ imbalances and the individualized treatments that she provides create a nourishing, safe space that encourages the body, mind, and spirit’s natural impulse to return to balance in a gentle yet effective way.
