I specialize in fertility / infertility acupuncture, pain management acupuncture and stress disorders, but my practice is multi-fold and I work with far more than just that. I work with my patients from a holistic perspective, in which we look at diet, lifestyle and all else that can influence health. While I use acupuncture (and other Chinese healing modalities when necessary), I like to see that the patient is able to find freedom from symptoms and retain positive health on their own through their newly found knowledge about their health.

I believe that everyone deserves to have a basic understanding of nutrition, and my goal is to help clients meet their individual nutritional needs and set realistic, achievable goals. I understand that improving health is about more than just “knowing what to do,” and that seeing me is often not your first step towards better health. Part of working with me is identifying and helping you overcome past and present obstacles in order to create lasting lifestyle changes.

First taught by my grandmother to help with my father's headaches, I have been doing massage all my life. I pursued it as a career after receiving prenatal massage while pregnant with my daughter. I offer a treatment that is holistic in nature - personally addressing body, mind and spirit - focusing on what the client needs when (s)he comes in. I use an integrated approach to massage seamlessly blending many modalities that I have learned throughout my many years of practice. I look forward to meeting you and working with you to achieve health and overall balance in your life.

“Diet starts Monday”. “I’ll burn this off tomorrow”. “I wish I looked like them”. Sound familiar? If so, this is for you...
Starting a diet may seem like exactly what you need, but it can actually create more disdain and feelings of guilt as you get lost in the diet cycle. You may lose a sense of self as you connect your body and food with worth, further perpetuating an unhealthy relationship with food and movement. Remember, diversity is what makes us wonderfully human! Taking care of yourself doesn’t need to involve shrinking down to fit a mold. Shifting your mindset can be challenging, this is where I come in.
