Lera is a Jewish immigrant from Omsk, Russia. She grew up in near proximity to China and Kazakhstan and therefore was introduced to Eastern medicine practices like cupping and herbalism at a young age.
In her spare time, Lera enjoys working with plants, adventuring in nature, and hanging out with her partner and two cats.
Lera provides services in both English and Russian
Intent:
I recognize the fact that I am practicing medicine not of my ancestral lineage. I give all respect and honor to the East Asian cultures from which this medicine comes. I make it a point to support businesses owned by AAIP folks. If you would like to support these businesses, please visit my resource page dedicated to this.
