The Story Behind AcuBracelet💫

AcuBracelet began during a season of major life change.

I was a professional equestrian, riding, training, and competing over fences, when my son was diagnosed with autism. In order for him to receive the services he needed through the state of California, I had to step away from the career I had built.

Before AcuBracelet became a trademarked brand, my original Shopify store was called Jewelry with a Cause. At the time, I was hand sewing every bracelet myself and making wellness-focused pieces for real-life needs like motion sickness, stress support, and everyday balance.

The idea came from my own experience. When I was pregnant with my second child, I struggled with dizziness and vertigo so severe that I was passing out in public. I was still riding and competing, and medication was not an option for me. As a last resort, I tried acupressure wristbands. They helped enough that I lived in them, but they were not attractive, comfortable, or durable enough for daily life.

I remember thinking that if I ever had to leave my riding career, maybe I could make something better — something that worked like acupressure wristbands but looked and felt more like jewelry.

That thought became AcuBracelet.
