MSOM, L.Ac, Reiki Master Teacher, Owner

Christie Kern, L.Ac. – Owner & Practitioner
Since 2006, Christie has been guiding people toward health through acupuncture and related therapies. For 13 years, she owned and operated Racine Community Acupuncture in Franksville, WI, where patients found comfort and healing in a group setting. After the COVID-19 pandemic brought that chapter to a close, she took time for her own healing before returning to practice—this time focusing on one-on-one care to more deeply uncover and address the root of each patient’s concerns. In 2024, dedicated to compassionate care, Christie accepted ownership of In Balance Acupuncture & Wellness in Kenosha.

Today, Christie integrates Esoteric Acupuncture, Reiki, Traditional Asian Medicine, meditation, and other energetic healing practices to support profound transformation. She remains committed to learning, growing, and trusting her intuition in the healing process.

Outside the clinic, Christie enjoys time with her Newfoundland puppy, traveling, and finding restoration along the shores of Lake Michigan.
