Christopher Miller, L.Ac., is the owner of Portland Wellness Collective and Miller Acupuncture. Chris is a highly regarded practitioner, teacher, speaker, and mentor with over 15 years of experience in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. He graduated from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California, as a Master in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Chris has a deep respect for Western-based Medicine but believes it fails to fully address the emotional and energetic responses that can result from traumatic injury and illness. His own experience with a severe disease compelled Chris to seek a holistic, integrated treatment, which he successfully found in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.
Chris’s additional studies include training at the prestigious Zhejiang Chinese Medical University in Hangzhou, China, Liaoning Chinese Medical University in Shenyang, China, and the Academy of Classical Oriental Sciences in Nelson, British Columbia. His experience includes internships in Fertility, Sports Injuries, and masterwork in Tuina, Shiatsu, and Five Element acupuncture. He holds multiple certifications from the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncture and [East Asian] Medicine, the American Academy of Physical [East Asian] Medicine, and the International Institute of Medical Qigong. He maintains Acupuncture licenses in both Oregon and California. In addition, Chris holds a degree in Biomedical Science from Colorado State University and has worked as an EMT and a Wilderness First Responder.
What People Are Saying
I cannot say enough about what a fantastic practitioner Chris is. He is insightful, compassionate, and effective. I came to him with physical pain- which he eased and have continued working with him on opening the doors to my emotional experience.

"I came to Chris with a long standing injury and two visits did what massage, chiropractic and physical therapy couldn't. He is great to work with and brings great insight to the process."
