About

Gianna is an acupuncturist, intuitive healer, 
and co-founder of Wildling.

“For as long as I can remember, I have had an insatiable curiosity about human health. I want to know all the tricks that genuinely make people feel better. My understanding of the body began in childhood — I’m the daughter of a gastroenterologist and the granddaughter of an osteopath. I had no shortage of stethoscopes. I remember the satisfaction of diagnosing my first patient at the age of 8, it was an ear infection in my younger brother.

Later on, I found my passion for alternative medicine in India where I was mentored by an Ayurvedic doctor. I obtained a master’s degree in acupuncture and herbology because it resonates with my energetic understanding of the body. My degrees are not my most prized credentials. I award more merit to my willingness to step outside of the box in my personal and professional healing work.

My Intuitive Acupuncture practice was born because I wanted to combine modalities that were extremely effective in my own healing journey. I lost a partner in a car accident many years ago, and I was devastated. I cried every day for six months. In my darkest moments, these healing practices gave my grief a purpose and they changed my life. For the next ten years, I embarked on a journey studying alternative healing methods that brought me back to life. Now it’s my turn to pay it forward. My mission to help people heal.”

Client Testimonials

    “My experience with Gianna was so powerful that it will take days to process it all. After years of seeing an amazing acupuncturist who moved his practice to San Francisco, it was time to explore LA again for a new one. And boy am I glad I did! I can honestly say, my life just got better! ”

    Lisa Gutierrez

    “I thought I’d just be going in for a relaxing hour, and ideally some immediate relief from the physical pain, but I left with so much more — and continue to reap the benefits of her work! She also helped me understand what aspects of my life might have been contributing to the discomfort.”

    Benjamin Lapides

    “Almost immediately after seeing Gianna the malady that has plagued me since my early 20s (I’m now 51) started to lift. She has done more for me than any therapist has been able to do and I’m eternally grateful. Saying what she does is transformative is a gross understatement, she truly changes lives. ”
