About Mandi Sawyer
Founder of Root to Branch, Mandi Sawyer, has been passionate about healthcare and healing for most of her life. There have been many iterations of this throughout her lifetime, but studying Traditional Chinese Medicine was a dream of hers for more than a decade before beginning her studies.
She specializes in treating mental health concerns like depression and anxiety, and patients with sensitive or reactive systems, such as individuals with fibromyalgia, autoimmunities, or chronic inflammation, who may have found acupuncture to be too stimulating or overwhelming in the past.
Her experience includes Traditional Chinese Medicine internships at Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital, The Mother Baby Center at Abbott Northwestern, and The Salvation Army Harbor Lights Center. She has also worked as a birth doula, postpartum doula, and is currently a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) specializing in older infants and complex issues.
Mandi Sawyer is passionate about herbal medicine. She is a certified TCM herbalist and works as a Herbal Clinic Supervisor at Northwestern Health Sciences University in their TCM Herbal Dispensary, helping students learn to become better, safer herbal prescribers.
She and her husband, George Sawyer, are proud to be farmers focused on sustainability and soil health, raising goats and USDA certified organic chickens at Wild Haven Farm. When she is not working, farming, or making goat milk soap, her hobbies include crafting of all kinds, baking, reading, gardening, tap dancing, and playing with her dog, Sousa.
My job is not to heal patients, but to help their body heal itself.
