Studies show that up to 78% of people with IBS have a condition called SIBO... which you can get rid of! For 15 years I was told there was nothing I could do about my debilitating GI symptoms– pain, cramps, bloating, all the other things no one wants to talk about. “Everything looks normal. You’re just going to have to live with it. Try managing your stress.” Sound familiar? If so, you’re in the right place. Because I get it! I’ve been there. I’m also now symptom free… why? Because IBS is B.S.! I got to the root cause and you can too!

Your doctor told you your numbers are high. Maybe you've already tried changing your diet. Maybe you don't know where to start. Either way, that's exactly who I work with.
Most people know something about eating "healthy," but are still missing the specific dietary patterns that drive high cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar. A general healthy diet isn't the same as a targeted one. Small, precise changes, and sometimes counterintuitive ones, move numbers more than overly restrictive approaches.

"Five Element acupuncture is the foundation and backbone of my practice. This is an elegant and beautiful system of medicine that helps people heal and maintain balance at a deep level. Each person has an innate healing ability. By listening and gathering information about a person's life I can help to stimulate their own healing potential and guide them towards balance and health. I also encourage lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise. In addition to Five Element acupuncture I incorporate Dr Tan's Balance Method and Zero Balancing, a type of bodywork, which balances body energy and structure through touch.

My goal is to help people get healthy and strong and to literally age backwards. At an age of 76, I have a biological age of 57. You can do this. Specializing in chronic conditions, I have spent years studying why people , without apparent risk factors, suffer strokes, heart attacks and other serious ailments. Environmental toxins like mercury, herbicides and mold toxin can and do contribute to strokes and heart attacks. Cells must be fed their ancestry diet since we are all genetically locked in. If not, nutritional deficiencies arise and and cell function suffers. Your personal required ancestry diet can be determined.
