I treat each patient as an individual, working with symptoms while balancing the body's energies to find a new healthy normal state. I find that with this kind of medicine, many issues resolve on the physical and emotional level. Most of my patients come in with pain syndromes, emotional issues, female health, infertility, digestive issues, and chronic illness. For chronic problems I often use herbs to support the treatment. I also use Chinese medical massage, positional therapy, and Reiki

My primary goal: help you love food. I grew up in a household where food was fun, varied, and adventurous. My Mother was a home economics teacher turned preschool teacher. She taught me how to prepare food in fun ways and to be an adventurous eating. We learned to love food because it was good for our bodies AND because it tasted delicious!

Health is a culmination of all actions and choices taken during our lifetime. Life is a journey that is recording in every cell of our body. Patterns are created, habits get more entrenched and, at some point in our life, we find the need to work and survive replacing that sense of balance and wellbeing. So, we just keep going. What if it was possible to enjoy better health? If you are tired and disappointed about how you feel, come see me. Together we will create a treatment plan based on the principles of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. A wholistic plan that fits your life, your lifestyle, and your healthcare goals.

Many of my patients have been told their tests are "normal," yet they still struggle with bloating, IBS, reflux, chronic inflammation, fatigue, food sensitivities, pain, or hormonal concerns. You are looking for answers—not another temporary fix or a bunch of supplements to throw at your health concerns.
I help identify the underlying patterns contributing to their symptoms using nutrition and Chinese Medicine, then create a practical, individualized treatment plan. My goal is to help patients understand why they feel the way they do and give them the tools to regain their health.

We live in a challenging time in regards to food, nutrition and body image. We are submerged in nutrition myths, quick fix diets and “perfect” bodies on social media. We feel immense pressure to change our bodies, and work tirelessly to eat and move in a way that will do just that, only to find ourselves defeated, exhausted, and back where we started. Over time, we forget that eating and movement should be pleasurable and nourishing.

I became interested in natural healing techniques a long time ago. Considering the potential side effects of medicines commonly prescribed, I thought it worthwhile to study alternative methods of healing. Initially, I trained in Shiatsu and Massage Therapy, I graduated from the New England School of Acupuncture in 1984. My post-graduate studies involved extensive training in Chinese Herbal Medicine.

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.
