I’m Andrea Clow, the founder of Adrift Acupuncture. Originally from the Oregon coast in the United States, I’ve recently relocated to the Netherlands as an expat, bringing with me over 20 years of experience in alternative healthcare. I’ve always been inspired by the body’s natural ability to heal, which led me to the study of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I completed my Master’s degree at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM) and, after many years in practice, earned my Doctorate in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (DAOM) in 2023. For me, learning never ends, and I continue to grow so I can offer the best care possible. I am nationally certified in the United States through the NCCAOM and licensed in the state of Oregon.

​

In my practice, I work with a wide range of conditions — including musculoskeletal pain, injury recovery, stress, sleep, digestion, and overall wellness. My approach blends acupuncture, herbal medicine, bodywork, and lifestyle guidance to support balance and vitality. I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and supportive environment where patients feel empowered on their path to health.

​

I also have a special focus on women’s health, fertility, and pregnancy, and became a Fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine (ABORM) in 2016. In addition to my acupuncture training, I have studied Arvigo abdominal massage therapy as a way to further support reproductive and perinatal care. I enjoy meeting patients wherever they are in their journey, whether they are working toward reproductive goals or simply seeking more energy, ease, and wellbeing in daily life.

Through Adrift Acupuncture, I look forward to welcoming patients in my new community and supporting you — or someone you know — on the path to healing and balance.
