Though some may think that acupuncture is something mystical, exotic, or out of reach, in fact, its benefits are comfortably attainable for all.

You don’t have to be a monk or a yogi to enjoy its benefits. Acupuncture is for everyone.  It works because it’s based in science, and thousands of years of observation. 

We call our clinic “Blue Jean Acupuncture” because acupuncture should be as comfortable, as familiar, and as useful to you as your favorite pair of blue jeans.  

For your convenience we accept PPO insurances, will work on liens for motor vehicle accidents, and are open until 8pm on weeknights.  

Serving Pasadena, South Pasadena, Arcadia, Los Angeles, Eagle Rock, Glendale, La Crescenta, La Canada, Altadena, Alhambra, Monrovia, and San Marino

Roxy Han
L.Ac

Roxy Han had been working in the film and television industry for 6 years before one fateful day when she got an injury that would change her life in the very best way.  She was at a Jiu Jitsu convention, zigged when she should have zagged and ended up with a separated AC joint.  The acupuncture treatments she received afterward were so effective in reducing pain and speeding healing that she knew she had to discover this medicine’s secrets for herself.  

She enrolled at Emperor’s College of Traditional Oriental Medicine at her earliest chance, and graduated with highest honors in 2006.  She went on to treat in different acupuncture clinics all over Southern California, incorporating the very best techniques she observed into her own.  

Roxy Han founded Elements Total Health in South Pasadena in 2008, an integrative health clinic, where she performed over 40,000 patient visits. She founded Blue Jean Acupuncture in Pasadena in 2015, where she has been treating people with the same high quality level of care she has been providing for over 17 years. Roxy Han is a caring and effective physician, capable of treating many different types of health concerns, especially pain related, hormone, and fertility issues.

Veda Gastaldi

L.Ac.

Born and raised in Los Angeles Veda (v-ee-da) began her healing journey when she realized that becoming a lawyer was not going to be for her.  She worked as a technical communicator and web interface designer for several high tech start up companies.  But found her true calling through a series of yoga teacher training and vipassana retreats.  A door to ceremony work opened and for 6 years Veda studied intensively in a Brazilian tradition facilitating healing works with flower, animal, and plant medicines from the Amazon rainforest.  Jungle medicine led her to the Mountain where she lived off the grid for a few surreal years amongst other healers, artists, and teachers.  This is where she first discovered the magic of Chinese Medicine.  Veda returned to Los Angeles to get her degree from Yo San University of Chinese Medicine while managing an acupuncture clinic and working as a teaching assistant.  She graduated at the top of her class and received the Deans Prize for highest score on the graduation exam.

Veda has lived in Los Angeles, France, Boston, Montreal, Silicon Valley, off the grid in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and now home again in Southern California.  She is fluent in French and passable in Spanish.  Now that Veda has found her way, her heart is full and she is thrilled to share her medicine and wisdom with others.  Specializing in the treatment of pain, stress, depression, anxiety, addiction, insomnia, PMS menopause, and digestive issues.
