You became an acupuncturist because you wanted to do the medicine. This series is about building the practice that lets you keep doing it. Across three focused grand rounds sessions, Dr. Krystal Lynn Couture, DPT, LAc walks through the financial, pricing, and operational conversations that most acupuncture training programs never touch. What to do with the money you earn. What to charge for the work you do. And how to build a practice that can hold more than you can personally carry. This is not generic business content. Every concept is grounded in the specific reality of running a pelvic health acupuncture practice, because the stakes of getting this right extend beyond your bank account and into the treatment room.

Krystal teaches Pelvic Care to Acupuncturists around the globe!
"It is my greatest passion to share the sacred medicine of the pelvis with acupuncturists around the globe. Over the past decade, I have developed a comprehensive approach that incorporates a range of acupuncture tools, including Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the Spirit of the Points, Manual Therapy, and Muscle-Specific Ashi Point Needling (also known as Dry Needling), to effectively treat the pelvis and the whole person. I'd love to have you join me in sharing this work with your clients."
Pricing, positioning, and the practice you were meant to build. This course examines the identity beliefs underneath undercharging, what pricing actually signals to prospective clients, and how specializing in pelvic health changes your referral volume, your authority, and your rate conversation entirely.
The financial literacy conversation no one had with us, and the one we desperately need. This course walks through the real income and retirement gap facing acupuncturists, the limiting beliefs that keep us financially stuck, and the specific savings and retirement vehicles available to self-employed practitioners so you can stop surviving and start building.
Systems to set you free. This course makes the case that burnout in a solo acupuncture practice is not a volume problem, it is a systems problem, and walks through the four core systems every pelvic health practice needs, including how AI can handle the administrative and content layer so your clinical time stays protected.
