Print Story | Email Story

LENOX, Mass. — Two practitioners of the healing arts, Dawn Meltzer and Louisa Weeden, have come together to provide expanded body/mind health options for those interested in a more holistic approach to their physical and mental well-being.   

In 2004, acupuncturist Dawn Meltzer opened New Dawn Healing Arts at 25 Franklin St. in Lenox. Through the practice of Chinese medicine, Meltzer specializes in helping those suffering from chronic illness and "mystery" conditions (such as fatigue, brain fog, unexplained pain), as well as treating a wide range of other conditions.

Meltzer holds a master's degree of acupuncture, a doctorate of Medical Qigong Therapy and a master's of theology in spiritual ministry and Sufi studies.


Recently, Weeden, a licensed mental health counselor, opened her new office at New Dawn Healing Arts. For nearly 30 years, she has offered Heart and Soul Psychotherapy, an approach to emotional healing and life enhancement based in the teachings of yoga, Gestalt and body-centered psychotherapy.

Among her specialties are treating depression, anxiety, emptiness, feeling stuck, grieving, and making repetitive life choices with unwanted results. She also offers Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping) as a way to regulate one’s own emotional states.

Both practitioners accept various forms of insurance, and offer day and evening hours. For more information, or to schedule an appointment with Dawn Meltzer, call 413-637-9993 or email newdawnhealing@gmail.com.
