Who Am I and Why Should You Care

Who am I? Why should you care what I have to say about health and women and menopause and infertility? Blogs are everywhere now and sometimes it's nice to know who's talk to you. Here is a brief outline of some of the things I have done in my 20 year career starting out as an HHP (holistic health practitioner in 1999 evolving into an Acupuncturists and Master Herbalist with nearly 4,000 hours of study over 4 years, year round in graduate school.

Kristen Burris, L.Ac., M.S.TO.M. and her husband are the owner of Eagle Acupuncture
Center in Eagle, Idaho. She has a four year Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine
practicing acupuncture and herbal medicine. She is an internationally recognized practitioner
in the field of women’s health, menopause, and infertility.
Ms. Burris is a sought out expert who has had patients referred to her by Dr. Oz. She
has been interviewed by: Dr. Oz producers, Good Morning America producers, USA Today,
MSNBC, Woman’s Day, Shape, Natural Health, Better Homes and Garden and Parenting
Magazines. She was the covergirl for HERLIFE magazine for her renowned success in
infertility helping over 255 couples conceive.
Ms. Burris has been interviewed for her work balancing hormones in infertility and
menopause in Readers Digest, San Diego Union Tribune, The Idaho Statesman and The
Independent. She was the very first guest on “Ask a smart person” with Mike and Kate on mix
106 Radio in Boise. Radio and TV news segments have also sought her out including:
National Public Radio (NPR), Fox News, KTVB TV, KUSI TV, and KBOI TV News for
her menopause and infertility work.
Kristen was chosen to be the first alumnus to be featured as a success in traditional
