Health Professionals Beginning With P in Pennsylvania

All great Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners in history are expertise in using acupuncture and medicinal herbs together for greater effectiveness. While acupuncture has gained popularity in America, many people do not know each component has its own strength. Some conditions cannot be treated effectively without the use of herbs.

With the commitment to provide effective, comprehensive and affordable treatment, I spent years in the study of medicinal herbs in addition to acupuncture. I am licensed in both acupuncture and herbology.
