Sam’s ideal client is an adult (18+) navigating blood sugar challenges such as newly diagnosed Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, or reactive hypoglycemia. They often feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice, frustrated by glucose swings, or stressed about weight management without rigid tracking. They need practical, individualized guidance to understand how food, lifestyle, and medications impact blood sugar. Their goal is to feel confident, improve time in range, support weight management, and reduce anxiety around food—seeking clear, realistic support from someone who understands diabetes both clinically and personally.

Almost any condition can be successfully treated with acupuncture because the goal is to correct the imbalances that are the underlying cause of the patient's symptoms. I find acupuncture is particularly beneficial for those with any type of pain: headaches, back pain, muscle, joint and nerve pain. It is also helpful for those with endocrine/hormonal issues, PMS, irregular periods, menopausal symptoms, digestive issues, abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhea. Also: anxiety, insomnia; high blood pressure, stress management, chronic fatigue. People with colds, sore throats, asthma, sinus infections, urinary tract infections, and dermatitis can also find relief with acupuncture.
