My interest in acupuncture began in 1986 after I first received treatment. My positive experience led me to want to study the tradition and to offer it to others. The foundation of my practice is in Five-Element Acupuncture. Continuing education has led me to other treatment forms that work well with the Five-Element tradition. Since 2004 I have been certified as an Acupuncture Detoxification Specialist working with addictions. Since 2006 I have been certified as a Zero Balancer. I use Dr. Tan's Balance method for pain relief. I enjoy working with both children and adults, and employ acupressure and non-insertive needle techniques for those who would prefer an option to working with the needles. My approach to treatment is to hold each patient in their wholeness, working from a place that sees human beings as an integral part of nature made up of complex relationships between their anatomy and physiology and their emotional and spiritual bodies. I listen and respond to the body's systems as uniquely expressed by each person to address imbalances and restore health and well-being. With improved balance in the body's systems, the quality of your life will be enhanced.

Do you struggle with digestive issues, joint aches and pains, fatigue, or problems with losing weight? Perhaps you’ve been told that all of your lab work looks good, but you still don’t feel good? You may even feel like there is something that is being missed. You may be aware that labs coming back normal does not always mean you are experiencing optimal health.

If you are struggling because you have pain issues, difficulty sleeping, or are undergoing mental and emotional stress, massage therapy may bring you the relief you seek. I have helped many people with a wide array of issues--people with very physical jobs, people who sit all day, athletes, people who have undergone great physical traumas and surgeries--the benefits of massage therapy are far reaching. In addition to resolving pain issues, massage therapy promotes deep relaxation and a sense of well being. As your body releases tension, your mind becomes more peaceful.

Acupuncture is a safe, effective, and natural form of healthcare that will get you feeling your best. Treating a patient is not just a matter of giving someone acupuncture.

Many patients come to me after "trying everything else," and it's great to be able to give them the relief they've been searching for.
