ABOUT ME
Sabine’s journey from Wiesbaden, Germany to the heart of Wellington, Florida is a story of passion, dedication, and relentless pursuit of excellence in Health & Wellness. Born with a drive for health and fitness, Sabine’s career trajectory took a significant turn when she became a licensed Personal Trainer in 2000, laying the foundation for her transformative path ahead. Driven by her unwavering commitment to her clients well-being, Sabine expanded her expertise by obtaining licenses as Pilates & Yoga Teacher, solidifying her position as a Holistic Heath Professional. In 2003, her entrepreneurial spirit led her to open her own studio in Wiesbaden, offering a sanctuary of Wellness that encompassed massage therapy, Homeopathy, Reiki, and personalized care. Despite finding success in Wiesbaden, Sabine’s thirst for more knowledge and growth propelled her toward new horizons. In 2012, she took a leap of faith and set her sights on Wellington, Florida, a move that marked the beginning of a new chapter in her career.. Continuously seeking to deepen her understanding of Holistic Medicine, Sabine pursued advanced studies in Nutrition, alternative medicine, and acupuncture, culminating in the completion of her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at the Pacific College of Health and Science. As the founder of Rise above Acupuncture, Sabine stands as a beacon of expertise in anti-aging treatments, and health and wellness. Specializing in LPG Endermologie, Acupuncture for pain management, anxiety disorders & depression, and woman’s health, Sabine’s multifaceted approach to healing encompasses injection therapy, B12, healthy weight loss solutions, herbal formulas, supplements, and homeopathic remedies. Today, Sabine’s practice in the heart of Wellington serves as a testament to her unwavering dedication to empower her clients to rise above their health challenges and embrace a life of vitality, balance, and well-being.
“You’re not broken. You’re just out of sync with your inner wisdom.”
That’s been my guiding belief for over two decades and the heartbeat behind everything I teach, write, and practice. I’m Dr. Sabine Clarke, though most people now know me as Dr. Sunshine not just because I
live in Florida (though yes, the weather is fabulous), but because I bring light to what’s been overlooked in health, healing, and the journey of becoming fully you.
I didn’t grow up in a wellness family.
I grew up in Germany, where traditional heavy food was the norm; my family was not into an
active life or working out. As a teenager, something in me said: This can’t be it. I was fascinated by health, nutrition, the mind-body connection, and the unspoken language of energy. So, I started reading, studying, and experimenting with what made me feel truly alive. That curiosity never stopped and led me into Yoga, Pilates, Nutrition, Homeopathy, Meditation, and Herbal Medicine.
Fast forward through motherhood, immigration, and professional pivots...
I moved to the U.S. in 2012 with two teenagers and a suitcase full of dreams. I became a licensed
Doctor of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, opened a thriving clinic, earned awards for my
work, and helped thousands of people rise above their pain, anxiety, hormone imbalances, and
gut chaos. But even with all my credentials, something was missing.
Enter my late-in-life ADHD diagnosis.
It wasn’t a crisis it was a revelation. Everything suddenly made sense: the way my brain buzzed
with ideas, the struggle to “just relax,” the deep emotional sensitivity, the constant search for why.
Instead of hiding it, I embraced it. I began blending neuroscience, quantum healing, spiritual
practices, and somatic tools into my approach. Because healing isn’t linear and it’s not just physical.
It’s mental. Emotional. Hormonal. Cellular. Spiritual. And honestly? Most of us aren’t sick.
We are overstimulated, under-nourished, overwhelmed, and missing the connection to ourselves, our bodies, and our light.
That’s why I created LIVINTY.ACADEMY®
Not another one-size-fits-all wellness brand, but a sanctuary for soul-led living.

Calm your nervous system without numbing your spark
Balance your hormones without hating your body
Heal your gut without another boring diet
Focus your mind without losing your joy
Age vibrantly without shame or fear
Return to your truth again and again
