About Maya Musick Liszt, M.S. LAc.

Maya—a licensed primary care provider–is an acupuncturist, herbalist, Arvigo Maya Abdominal Therapist and Fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine. She specializes in women’s health, fertility, and obstetrics. She earned a Master of Science from the four-year medical program at the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Her interest in medicine began as a teen when she was selected by a local hospital to work alongside labor and delivery nurses. This unique experience allowed her the opportunity to witness the miracle of birth on a regular basis, each time leaving her in awe of life and the power of the human body. Her early introduction to birth sparked her passion to support women during all stages of life.
Becoming a mother was one of Maya’s greatest lessons on her journey toward helping others. She experienced the ancient wisdom of this medicine firsthand. With consistent acupuncture lovingly given by her husband and acupuncturist, Andrew, Maya and her baby had a profoundly healthy pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period.

Maya sees Mama Lounge as a bridge connecting modern women to these time-honored practices. When a woman is given proper care and support before, during, and after pregnancy, the journey can be an opportunity for her to achieve great healing and transformation while simultaneously establishing the foundation of heath for her baby and the next generation of her family.

Maya interned with the renowned master acupuncturist, Dr. Robert Johns. This is how Chinese Medicine was traditionally taught: handed down from master to student. It is a rare gift to receive this training in modern times. She continues to study with experts in the fields of advanced pulse diagnosis, natural fertility restoration, birthing, and mother care. She integrates her practice of Maya Abdominal Therapy into her treatments providing patients with the profound benefits of hands-on healing.

While working on organic farms throughout Europe, Maya experienced a profound transformation in her health. This experience highlighted for her how taxing modern life can be on the body and spirit. For the first time she was able to fully appreciate the foundations of a balanced and healthy life by slowing down, eating locally grown food, getting lots of sunshine and restful sleep. Maya helps patients make simple lifestyle adjustments to encourage optimal health and happiness.
