JJ Quinn, Doctor of Oriental Medicine, Advanced Clinical Master Nutrition Response Testing®,
Licensed Acupuncturist, Functional Nutrition Specialist
Dr JJ Quinn, also known as Quinn Medicine Woman, is licensed as a Doctor of Oriental Medicine (DOM) and an Acupuncturist (LAc) in the states of Arizona and New Mexico. She has been an Advanced Clinical Master of Nutrition Response Therapy since 2020, a practicing Arizona Acupuncturist since 2007, and for 10 years prior to that had been honing her “pain busting” skills in private practice in Scottsdale with her signature Targeted Neuromuscular Therapy™.
Even in primary school, JJ Quinn (aka “Jacqueline Jo”) knew she was going to be a doctor. Her childhood illnesses of allergies and asthma, leading to migraines and other headaches, with an eventual diagnosis of epilepsy, certainly made her familiar with the importance of health—and the obstacles created by a lack of vitality. JJ’s first break away from cycling antibiotics, weekly allergy shots and a sinus surgery finally came in 9th grade when a wise Doctor of Chiropractic and Clinical Nutrition started treatments that included the Standard Process therapeutic whole food supplements. (Thank you, Dr. Wenger and Standard Process☺) With the improved health and mental acuity that followed a renewal created by Designed Clinical Nutrition, JJ served as a Chinese linguist in the US Army, followed by graduate school in the biological sciences at the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish!). But vaccine injury plagued JJ coming out of the military, leading Providence to guide Dr Quinn back into the world of nutritional and traditional healing therapies.
Her own particular “stops and starts” in health are certainly what has caused Dr JJ to be so fully invested in creating “outside-the-bottle” healing opportunities for others. A keen mind and relentless passion for helping the most difficult and chronic cases has caused her to earn 17 certifications and masteries, all of which activate Nature and Human Agency to CATALYZE healing.

I have known Dr. JJ Quinn for many years, but it wasn’t until I got sick with Covid in August of 2021 that I really got the full understanding of what kind of healing Dr. JJ is capable of at her office, Catalyst Wellness LLC.
I was working on my plan to go to the hospital as I was confined to my bed with each day getting steadily worse and my blood oxygen ratings going way below normal due to Covid. One of my friends told me, “why didn’t you get stuff from Dr. JJ? The supplements she gave our family had us all over Covid in no-time.”
So I texted and told Dr JJ that I thought I’d have to go to the hospital before the day was out. She immediately me up with a supplement regimen that I truly know saved me from the hospital. By the end of the same day that I began taking Dr JJ’s Designed Clinical Nutrition, I wasn’t feeling worse, and by the next day I was already starting to feel better. After days of my breathing and energy going downhill, it wasn’t until taking the supplements that I noticed improvement almost instantly. Later she explained to me that my body had run out of the essential nutrition it needed to fight off Covid, let alone recover.
After my turnaround, I knew I needed to learn more about what it is that Dr. JJ does in her office—especially because my friends had been helped with her program too. It was almost like it was destiny that the timing of all this occurred as I was currently looking for my next quest professionally. After my own experience with the healing received from Dr. JJ’s protocol, I knew I could help her with taking Catalyst Wellness LLC to the next level so everyone can have their own healing experiences. I’m very excited and honored to have the opportunity to now work at Catalyst Wellness and assist Dr. JJ with her clinic. Since then, I have also become fully invested in studying Nutrition Response Testing and Catalyst Wellness’ style of Designed Clinical Nutrition. I aim to continue to learn everyday with and from Dr. JJ: I see her expanding her skills all the time and the universe always sends us a perfect client to benefit from the new knowledge.
Finding a place of employment where you are able to express your own knowledge, experience and ideas is not very common and I am very grateful to have a place of employment that embodies that. I also appreciate that Dr. JJ supports, trusts and welcomes me to learn as much as I can to help grow the clinic so we can continue helping so many to get the full, proper health that they desire and long for. We both love coming to work and helping the great people that come in and then send all their friends and family!

About Catalyst Wellness
Dr JJ Quinn initially created Catalyst Wellness to offer exceptional results in pain and injury management with her Targeted Neuromuscular Therapy™ practice in Scottsdale in 1998.
Throughout her years of changing lives through pain reduction, JJ began to notice that there was an ever growing subset of clients whose treatments would not “hold”, and their dysfunction might even increase in spite of the restorative therapies, exercises, and other lifestyle recommendations that had created lasting change in the past. This motivated JJ to learn Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine because of its entirely wholistic and foreign way of viewing patients: each patient along with their environment, lifestyle, energies and stresses is more important than a disease pattern or their presenting symptoms.
Upon completion of this schooling, Dr JJ Quinn, now Medicine Woman (D.O.M., L.Ac.), realized that there was a noticeable increase in dysfunction, illness and disease among the general population that even acupuncture was too slow to change. This kept Dr Quinn in hot pursuit for better methods to provide patients with consistently reliable and lasting results.
Her research concluded that the majority of health issues were due to increased exposure to environmental toxins and poor diets that included processed foods, chemical additives, added antibiotics and hormones. The Standard American Diet “S.A.D.” is found to be entirely lacking in real, living, rejuvenating food. As a whole, Americans are toxic and nutritionally deprived, and THIS is what is causing an extreme rise in obesity, illness and disease.
In 2019, after long years of searching for truly comprehensive solutions to the increasingly complex medical and lifestyle challenges surrounding us, JJ finally discovered Nutrition Response Testing®. Immediately recognizing the value of Nutrition Response Testing, which reliably uncovers the often hidden sources of true healing, Dr Quinn spent the next intensive year becoming Advanced Clinically trained in this time-tested methodology.
The success was immediate - using Nutrition Response Testing® alongside the acupuncture or Targeted Neuromuscular Therapy, she was finally getting the results she had known were possible. Patients of all ages began attaining life-changing results in their health and vitality.
Since successfully incorporating Nutrition Response Testing® into the practice, Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman, and
Catalyst Wellness began receiving patients and referrals from all over Arizona, and even referrals from other parts of the country.
