Meet Dr. Marylynn Jones DACM, L.Ac
Marylynn Jones is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and a Licensed Acupuncturist. Her first career was in pharmaceutical research, where she found professional success, but not true fulfillment. Searching for a more natural, non-pharmacological way to address injuries and health conditions, she discovered the power of Acupuncture and Eastern Medicine. Inspired, she made the leap from the corporate world into a vocation aligned with her passion and purpose.
Since becoming a mother in 2015,
Marylynn has developed a special dedication to women’s health—supporting women through fertility, from pregnancy through postpartum, and all stages of menopause. She is honored to bring the wisdom of Eastern Medicine into families’ journeys, complementing the care they receive from their Western medical providers. Beyond women’s health, she enjoys using acupuncture to support patients with a wide range of health concerns, from pain, sleep challenges, and digestive issues, to stress, emotional well-being, and other acute and chronic conditions. Her goal is always to guide patients back to balance and help them tap into the body’s innate ability to heal.
Additionally, Marylynn blends her expertise in women’s health with an enthusiasm for natural beauty and renewal. In addition to supporting fertility, pregnancy, postpartum wellness, and overall balance, she offers Facial Rejuvenation treatments such as Cosmetic Acupuncture, Microneedling & Nanoneedling treatments and Facial Cupping & Gua sha, designed to rejuvenate the skin, enhance radiance, and awaken confidence from within. These gentle, holistic therapies smooth, tone, and revitalize, while nurturing deep relaxation and vitality throughout the body. With a caring and restorative approach, Marylynn helps her patients not only feel their best but also glow with renewed energy and timeless beauty.
Originally from the East Coast, Marylynn earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Georgia. After 16 years working in clinical research, she returned to school to complete her Master of Science in Traditional Oriental Medicine (MSTOM) and Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (DACM) at Pacific College of Health and Science.
When she’s not in the clinic, Marylynn can often be found immersed in a good novel, working on a puzzle or her latest crochet project, or enjoying family time with her husband and daughter. She especially enjoys seeing musicals at many of the local theatres and trying out restaurants with family and friends. To stay energized and balanced, she enjoys hiking around San Diego county, lifting weights, and family dance parties in the kitchen. These simple joys keep her grounded and continually remind her of the joy in connection and creativity.
