Health Professionals in North Carolina

Tired of not feeling like yourself? Pain holding you back from fun & family events? Acupuncture is your ticket back to the life you want! ​ When anxiety has you trapped in a holding pattern, acupuncture slows down your mind, calms frenetic energy & nudges you to relax into your best self! ​ If you've had enough of doctors telling you: "There's nothing wrong with you" - even when you know there is! Like: "Well, you are getting older" or "We've tried everything, you'll just always have (fill in your symptom here)" I understand, because I've been there! I'd love to give you skills to nurture your body's natural healing ability.

My training allows me to address a wide variety of conditions. I have frequently treated people that have nowhere left to turn for relief. I try to treat the most immediate pain-causing issues, while also treating the musculo-skeletal(postural) patterns that are at the root of the pain. Most problems are not where the pain is being felt, so I use observation, client history, and just plain intuition sometimes to find the original trauma.
