Health Professionals in New York
Are you a high-functioning woman 35+ whose digestion has gotten annoyingly unpredictable? Bloating shows up out of nowhere. IBS patterns shift. Hormonal changes make your “usual fixes” stop working. You’ve tried elimination diets and supplements that promised clarity and delivered... nothing. You want a structured, evidence-based plan to stabilize digestion, support hormone-related symptoms, and eat without constant second-guessing. I’ve lived with Crohn’s disease for more than three decades. That perspective informs a clinical approach focused on discernment and durable results, not generic advice or trend-driven protocols.

My practice of ASIAN BODYWORK THERAPY, with Infrared LED Light Therapy, (please see website) helps people maintain or regain their health through physical manipulation and pressure. It is based on Zen Shiatsu, Zero Balancing, Myofascial Release, and CranioSacral Therapy. You wear loose, comfortable clothing and lie on a massage table placed over a Therapeutic Magnetic Grid. No oils are used. I notice where your tension is, where your weaknesses are and where you have the tendency toward illness. I pay special attention to problems associated with the neck and the back. Pain relief and freedom of movement is a priority.

Many people seeking naturopathic care have already tried conventional treatment, supplements, restrictive diets, or other natural approaches without finding lasting improvement. They often feel stuck, reactive, exhausted, or overwhelmed by conflicting information.
My practice focuses on understanding broader physiological patterns involving sleep, stress tolerance, digestion, energy regulation, inflammation, and recovery capacity. Rather than chasing symptoms in isolation, I look at how different systems of the body interact and contribute to the overall picture.

Your primary physician referred you to a dietitian, now what? You may feel anxious and wonder if this would work! There is so much nutrition information out there!
