kitty acupuncture?

Does anyone know of a local cat acupuncturist? I've tried everything to help my cat get over her habit of pulling out her fur with her teeth (vet exams, tests for parasites/infections etc. (negative), changing food several times, medications (first prednisone, now cyclosporine), and so on. I'm thinking I have to go holistic. She's getting mighty impressive bald spots on her tummy and legs.

Marie Cargill (262 Beacon Street, Boston - (617) 247-1446) was recommended both by my acupuncturist and by my vet. I've never used her but she gets pretty good reviews online.

Beverly Animal Natural Health Services is a holistic veterinary practice that I highly recommend for stuff like this, too. There's a huge difference between taking a pet there and taking a pet to any other vet service I've ever seen. (http://www.banhc.com/)
