Will Sheppy is a licensed acupuncturist and founder of Valley Health Clinic in Albany, Oregon, with more than 20 years of experience in Traditional Chinese Medicine. He has built one of the region’s most trusted practices for one of medicine’s most frustrating and least-understood conditions: Ménière’s disease and chronic vertigo.

“He doesn’t just treat Ménière’s — he lives with it.”

Lived Experience, Real Results

What sets Will apart is that he is a fellow Ménière’s patient. He knows firsthand the dizziness, ear pressure, tinnitus, and the helplessness of never knowing when the next attack will hit. That lived experience drives a practice known for results — especially among the high-stress, high-achieving patients who so often struggle with vertigo, dizziness, and blood-pressure issues. Using acupuncture, qi gong, and herbal medicine, Will has helped these patients regain control of a condition that so often leaves people feeling powerless.

Backed by Research

Ménière’s is famously hard to treat, with few effective conventional options. Yet a growing body of evidence supports the approach Will uses every day:
Systematic reviews have found that acupuncture shows a beneficial effect for people with Ménière’s — both during acute episodes and for those who have lived with it for years. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/ medicine/articles/10.3389/fmed.2024 .1463821/full

Recent meta-analysis evidence indicates that acupuncture — alone or combined with conventional care — can outperform Western medicine alone, reducing dizziness, tinnitus, and ear-fullness symptoms

Acupuncture has likewise shown promise for vertigo more broadly, improving vertigo and headache symptoms compared with conventional drug therapy.

A Whole-Picture Approach

Will’s method goes beyond chasing vertigo attacks. He maps the comorbidities that drive Ménière’s — neck tension, gut and inflammation patterns, allergies, vestibular migraines, and a nervous system stuck in “fight or flight” — using Chinese medicine diagnostics to help patients finally understand what’s happening in their own bodies.

There Is Hope

Will’s message is simple and honest: there is hope. It isn’t an easy road, and it isn’t a pill — but for patients willing to do the work, he offers the tools, the understanding, and the support to take their lives back from a disease that thrives on uncertainty.
