Health Professionals in Portland, OR

Everyone can achieve a greater degree of health, be it physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, and being a licensed Naturopath AND acupuncturist, I can provide many treatment options. I am looking for patients who want to sleep well, feel energized, think clearly, feel calm and centered, have a sense of humor, and really love life. Patients need to feel better so I first reduce current symptoms to improve immediate health, and then work with patients in a caring and respectful relationship to discover and treat the underlying cause, meet each patient's health goals, and prevent future disease.

Managing diabetes is a full time job, but what if there was a way to simplify it?

I provide holistic care to help you balance all areas of health, and collaborate with you and your healthcare team to create a personalized management plan.

I practice an intuitive art form rooted in scientific knowledge. Traditional medicine does not specialize in treating the myofascial restrictions that may be involved in chronic pain conditions or structural dysfunction. The tried and true techniques of deep tissue massage and myofascial release aim to restore the normal functioning of fascia by breaking up the glue that binds these adhesions. I do this by applying slow, sustained pressure, gradually working up to the threshold of what you can tolerate.

I primarily treat chronic pain and musculoskeletal injuries. My belief is that these are often multi-faceted. Injuries can ultimately be a result of structural or movement imbalances that go beyond a simple slip and fall. Pain itself can have multiple causes; there are different "types" of pain. As such, patients often need a diverse approach and my goal is to help guide this process.

My greatest joy comes from empowering individuals and families to live vibrant, healthy lives. While honoring your unique preferences and wisdom, I inspire people of all ages to live fully, peacefully, and with awareness. Partnering with nature, I use natural remedies, acupuncture, craniosacral, diet, lifestyle, and homeopathy to promote optimal health; while also tending the mental/emotional connections to your health. Patients come to me who want to explore the ways in which their body is communicating to them so that we can find ways to restore health and freedom.

Let's get real! What's the ONE barrier making you feel stuck in perimenopause's whirlpool? Is it the sleepless nights sapping your vitality? Unexplained weight shifts shaking your confidence?
