What do you get when you mix a former Condé Nast magazine editor and hip-hop music journalist with a doctor of Eastern medicine? Lovely to meet you, I’m Giselle.

After a decade-plus as a writer and content creator in NYC and LA, I switched careers (like, big time!) and founded REMIX Acupuncture and Integrative Health in Chicago in 2012, a wellness studio that blends ancient medicine with modern needs— and launched a complementary, practitioner-driven skincare and lifestyle brand, REMIX by Giselle Wasfie.

I was responsible for all stages of development and growth of the brand - from the formulation of products to creative direction, marketing strategy, social media, brand design, project management, press and influencer relationships, and so much more.

I was invited to speak about green beauty brand building, and natural medicine for trend-setting cultural think-tanks such as Unilever’s Innovation Lab in NYC , and IDEO in Chicago, and was named as “One of Top 5 Wellness Influencers” in Chicago by Modern Luxury magazine.

In 2018, the REMIX by Giselle Wasfie product line was chosen by ALLURE as “One of the Top 21 Indie Beauty Brands” in America. In 2023, I sold the product line and began business school in London, focusing on innovation, service design, and leadership.

When REMIX was born in 2012, making wellness and self-care feel relevant, cool and relatable was a new concept. As one of the first-to-market, internationally-recognized holistic studios and green beauty brands with a traditional Eastern medicine angle, we made ancient medicine relatable and relevant. We rooted our remedies with our ancient founders’ teachings as the line grew organically, being carried by retailers like Urban Outfitters. In 2023, I sold the product line, and continue to work as a consultant for the buyer.

  • <autoplay speed=5></autoplay>Giselle is a one-of-a-kind soul and this shines through in everything and everyone she touches. Having had the pleasure of being a patient and programming partner with Soho House Chicago, and she is intentional and considerate in her approach- always meeting her base where they are, while still managing to leave them more knowledgeable about their body and practice after each encounter.

    Autumn Merritt

    Head of Membership CWH North America, Soho House & Co

  • I had a great experience working with Giselle for an [EQUINOX] brand activation at Pitchfork music festival. She was incredibly knowledgeable, had a very engaging approach and makes everyone feel very comfortable. Giselle also has a personal and brand style that elevates every experience – making it a place you want to be!

    Annalise Ghiz

    Director of Programming & Partnerships, The Britely

  • I was lucky enough to have Giselle give a talk on aromatherapy at IDEO as a special "lunch 'n learn" experience for the design studio. We loved it. She's engaging, insightful, and has such an incredible wealth of knowledge and experience about East Asian medicine. She has the ability to communicate philosophical ideas that might otherwise feel abstract in ways that are entirely relatable and applicable to everyday life.

    Jessica Goldman

    Writer/Strategist

  • Giselle was a tremendous partner for Owen + Alchemy. She helped us formulate an elegant line of products that incorporated Traditional Chinese herbs and rituals, assisted training our staff and educating our clients. The products were extremely well received and are some of my very favorite, to this day.

    Anne Owen

    Executive Director of Media, MIAMI DESIGN DISTRICT Magazine

  • I brought Giselle in to give a few virtual presentations about East Asian medicine to our organization during the pandemic. She provided a much needed sense of calm during that bumpy time. Our employees learned a lot and left the sessions feeling lighter. I’d highly recommend bringing her in for a virtual or in-person experience.

Ancient remedies remixed for modern life has been a core value in my decade-plus work as a practitioner, and triple-board-certified doctor of acupuncture, and herbal medicine.

As the creator and founder of REMIX Acupuncture and Integrative Health LLC in Chicago, I offer holistic medicine services, crystal healing and energy medicine, as well as telehealth consults.

I’m proud to say we have over sixty only 5-star reviews to our name, and are a beloved part of the Chicago wellness community.

I am also a board-certified hypnotherapist, and offered treatments remotely— like distance reiki—that are relaxing, healing, and truly transformative.

You can also book virtual gua sha tutorial sessions with me, and comprehensive Eastern medicine consultations, where I incorporate intuitive healing, breath work, and meditation, based on your needs.

We also discuss your current state of mind-body health —and curate an individualized treatment protocol, using acupressure, Eastern Nutrition and lifestyle recommendations—to achieve your goals.

I look forward to working with you in-person, or from anywhere in the world.
