Dr. Galen Wilson, DACM, MSTCM, C.SMA, L.Ac

Certified Sports Medicine Acupuncture Specialist | Doctorate & Masters in Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine

A Passion Rooted in Family & Healing

Growing up as the son of two acupuncturists, Dr. Galen Wilson experienced the transformative power of acupuncture and Chinese medicine firsthand from an early age.

It wasn't until his junior year studying entrepreneurship at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles that he felt called to switch paths and pursue a career in medicine. This decision led him to earn both his Master's (MSTCM) and Doctorate (DACM) degrees from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM) in 2018.

Since establishing his practice on the Central Coast in San Luis Obispo, Dr. Wilson has dedicated himself to helping people of all ages and athletic backgrounds relieve pain, restore function, and achieve optimal wellness through acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, functional nutrition, and advanced sports medicine techniques.
