Health Professionals near Penn Hills, PA

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. When herbal treatment is used alone, it's also more affordable. 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.

As an acupuncturist I have learned to believe in the old saying that "the only time the body and mind are separate is in a dictionary". By understanding this mind body connection I strive to not only treat each person as a unique individual but also encourage each person to take an active role in their health needs.

In every patient, I see an opportunity to make a difference in that person's life. Many people come to acupuncture after trying every other option. In acupuncture, there are so many ways to solve a person's illness. As a practitioner, it is incredibly rewarding to take a patient out of pain, ease their anxiety, help them sleep or engage in activities that they thought might never be possible again.

I'm passionate about helping individuals regain their belief and trust in themselves by successfully working on layers of their health.

My ideal client comes wanting to make a change and is willing to take on some challenges to help get them to that ideal health place. We make small changes, set goals after each visit, and the client is willing to step outside of their current comfort zone and challenge themselves to change. They want better digestion, less inflammation, a more active lifestyle, improvement in performance (sports and general activity), and to achieve a more desired body type (weight loss, increase in lean mass, or general weight gain).

Too often, I see people equating being healthy with punishing themselves. I believe your healthiest life comes not from punishment but from caring for yourself in order to live your fullest (and longest/most energetic) life possible. With a background in behavioral psychology, I encourage my clients to find ways to make changes to their diet and overall lifestyle that not only makes them healthier but also helps them to feel more alive. Physical and mental health should exist in tandem, not at odds with each other.

In a 1995 Nutrition in Medical Science Class, I discovered that statistically, African Americans suffered disproportionately from many chronic diseases. I made it my goal in this life to discover a solution to alter the trajectory of the problem. I now help African-Americans develop a proper relationship with the food they eat by incorporating culture into the recipe of active living, glorious nutrition and wellness!

I treat a broad spectrum of health concerns, but special areas of interest for me are post-concussion syndrome, migraine, fibromyalgia, peripheral neuropathy, shingles pain and Bell's Palsy.

Hi! I’m Jo. I’ve been a pediatric dietitian for over five years and have worked with a diverse range of patients—from infants leaving the NICU to teenagers leaving for college. I speak with families for a variety of nutrition concerns, including managing picky/restrictive eating behaviors, poor growth, food allergies, celiac disease, irritable bowel disease, and both type 1 and 2 diabetes. Discussing weight and food choices can feel very personal for both parents and children; my role is to support the whole family and help make achieving nutrition goals as easy as possible.

We live in a fast paced environment where there is little time for ourselves. My job is not to tell you that you can't eat certain foods but instead to try to focus on realistic behavior changes that will stick. No food rules, no "one size fits all" approach, just honest support and accountability from someone who cares about you!

As a dietitian with a non-diet approach, my nutrition philosophy is rooted in intuitive eating, honoring our bodies, and experiencing joyful movement. I believe that everyone deserves a peaceful relationship with food, movement and their bodies. I work with clients who struggle with food labeling/judgements, weight-cycling and chronic dieting. Together, we will identify goals that meet your own unique needs that allow for a sustainable recovery.
