Katherine Rowe, LAc, FABORM

Katherine Rowe is co-owner of Triangle Acupuncture Clinic and Director of the Fertility Wellness Program. She is nationally licensed and board-certified in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine by the NCCAOM and holds state licenses in North Carolina and California. Katherine specializes in women’s health, including fertility, pregnancy, and menstrual health, and also treats anxiety, mental health, and cancer-related symptoms.

She began her career as a research biologist at UNC hospitals but found her calling in preventative health, actively working with people to help them feel their best. This lead her to study Classical Chinese Medicine at Five Branches Institute in Santa Cruz, CA. In 2004, she co-founded Triangle Acupuncture Clinic, now a trusted provider in the Triangle community, integrating Eastern and Western medicine.

Katherine is passionate about working with cancer patients, having completed an advanced training certification program with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. She uses acupuncture to help manage stress, insomnia, nausea, pain, and fatigue during and after treatment. With 20 years of experience, she is also highly skilled in treating body pain, including low back pain, sciatica, and upper back and neck tension. She frequently treats neuroma-type nerve pain under the toes in aging women, a condition that responds well to acupuncture.

Her training also includes an Advanced Clinical Internship at Zhe-Jiang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China and she has studied under leading experts like Dr. Randine Lewis, the author of The Infertility Cure, Jane Lyttleton, a world renowned infertility and Chinese Medicine specialist and Sharon Weizenbaum, a classical Chinese Medicine scholar. As a fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine (ABORM) since 2008, she ensures safe, complementary care for women undergoing fertility treatments.

Katherine is our lead herbalist for TAC Tea, and creates all of our in-house made Herbal Tea formulas. She lives in Durham with her husband and two children, proudly cheering for the Tarheels.
