About

Picture
Darla Erickson has been working in the healing arts for over 15 years.  She started in Quantum Energetics Structured Therapy (QEST) after seeing astonishing results with family, friends, and herself. QEST is a systemic process using subtle energy to trigger the innate natural healing processes within the body.  The ultimate aim of QEST is to produce a state of optimum balance or health within the body.

After seeing the effects of QEST had when combined with Acupuncture, Darla’s journey led her to pursue a degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.  Acupuncture is used to encourage natural healing, improve mood and energy, and reduce or relieve pain and improve function of the affected areas of the body.

Darla studied QEST at the Quantum Energetics Academy and received her certification as a Quantum Energetics Structured Therapy Practitioner in 2002.  She then studied at Northwestern Health Sciences University and received her Masters degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in 2012.  Darla received her Doctor of Energy Medicine in 2016 from the International Academy of Energy Medicine.  In 2019, Darla completed her two year certification in "The Gold Standard Facial Acupuncture" by Mary Elizabeth Wakefield and Michel Angelo.  She has also received certification in Vibrational Acupuncture and is studying Planetary and Soundscapes acupuncture.  She is an NCCAOM board certified and licensed acupuncturist in the States of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and South Dakota. Darla’s work experience includes Woodwinds Hospital, Fairview University of Minnesota Medical Center on the West Bank, Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute (previously known as Courage Center), Edith Davis Teaching Clinic, Northwestern Health Sciences Burnsville Clinic and University Health Services.
