Margot Chambers, LAC

WELLNESS DIRECTOR

At START UP WELLNESS, Margot Chambers is more than a Wellness Director—she is the architect of a radical new approach to healing. By merging Eastern medicine with cutting-edge frequency medicine technology, she has redefined what holistic wellness looks like in the modern age. With over two decades of expertise in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), holistic health, and addiction recovery, Margot’s approach transcends conventional treatment—blending ancient wisdom, modern science, and intuitive healing to create deep, lasting transformation.

A lifelong seeker of mind-body mastery, Margot’s journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Political Science from UC Santa Cruz, followed by a Master’s in Traditional Chinese Medicine and a California State Board Acupuncture License. She refined her expertise at the renowned Simms/Mann Health and Wellness Center, where she worked as an acupuncturist in the Pain Management Department, helping individuals break free from chronic pain and emotional suffering. This experience solidified her calling—to revolutionize the way behavioral health and addiction recovery integrate holistic healing.

A true trailblazer, Margot played a pivotal role in shaping the integration of Eastern medicine and holistic pain management in addiction treatment. During her time at Promises Treatment Center, she was instrumental in the creation of the first-ever Eastern medicine program within addiction treatment and the first holistic pain management program for opioid recovery—an industry shift that redefined approaches to sustainable healing. At START UP WELLNESS, she continues to advance the field, designing an immersive wellness program that fuses Traditional Chinese Medicine, somatic therapies, and state-of-the-art frequency medicine technology. This fusion creates an unparalleled healing experience, designed to restore, recalibrate, and empower each client on their path to optimal well-being.

Margot doesn’t just lead—she embodies the philosophy of healing. She hand-selects a team of elite healers, ensuring that every client’s treatment plan is as individualized as their journey. A natural educator and wellness alchemist, she leads daily "Juicing for the Internal Organ Systems" classes, using vibrant elixirs to decode Traditional Chinese Nutrition and balance the body from within. She also cooks alongside her team, preparing organic, nutrient-dense meals that nourish both body and spirit. As a devoted student of essential oils and herbal medicine, she equips clients with lifelong healing tools, empowering them to take ownership of their well-being long after their journey with us ends.

Born into a lineage of natural medicine practitioners, Margot embodies the perfect fusion of ancestral wisdom and forward-thinking innovation. Under her leadership, START UP WELLNESS isn’t just a treatment center—it is a sanctuary where science and soul converge, and where healing isn’t just restored—it’s reimagined.
