About Ola Acupuncture
& Krista Graves, LAc
I have been practicing acupuncture since 2002 when I moved to Kailua-Kona and found my home on the Big Island of Hawaii. Since that time I have helped countless people discover more freedom in their lives through pain reduction, improved sleep, hormonal balancing, quieter mental processes, healthier digestion, and more balanced emotional states. I practice Classical acupuncture, a pre-Han Dynasty channel medicine that offers a heart-centered approach and profound clinical results.
In 2024, I opened Ola Acupuncture Art & Design in Honoka’a with the intention to bring a lightness of heart to the pursuit of healing. My emphasis is on education and self-care, while also knowing the importance of compassionate support when life offers the inevitable challenges.
When it comes to living a healthy life, I’ve also found it essential to maintain a curious and creative outlook. I have a deep appreciation for the arts, and really value the role that creativity can play in healing on an individual and a collective level.
In addition to acupuncture and art, I love to share my explorations of Human Design -a system that offers an opportunity to move beyond the mental conditioning of a profoundly homogenized world and into one’s differentiated, unique self with more clarity and meaning.
I believe that nature is the boss, everyone can feel free, play is imperative, our minds are a mess, our bodies know best, and smiling is the best policy.
