You've tried every diet, tired of being tired, or are simply sick of not feeling well. Labs have come back "normal" — and somewhere in caring for everyone else, you stopped feeling like yourself. Whether it's stubborn weight, perimenopause, gut and digestive issues, blood sugar, food sensitivities, thyroid, or burnout, you've started over more times than you can count. We get it — and this time is different. The Pointe helps busy women, men and families break the cycle of quick fixes and finally build health that lasts, without the crash diets, confusion or 30-day challenges that set you up to fail.

I understand that life’s challenges are complex and unique to each individual. Busy schedules, limited nutrition resources, and complicated relationships with food are just some of the many factors that contribute to failed diet and lifestyle changes. I’m here to help you establish a healthy relationship with food and guide you through the connection between mind, body, and spirit to accomplish your goals. I firmly believe that wellness is a dynamic process of change and growth, “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease“.

Strength of acupuncture stimulation should be considered carefully for each patient. Regardless of pain nature, acupuncture is an excellent modality for pain relief and management. I have practiced acupuncture over 26 years and taught the students at the Midwest College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago for 5 years. I have been the health advisor for various live radio health programs for Seoul Radio Broadcasting and KBI Radio Station in Chicago for 9 years.
