Often these problems are due to chronic excess muscle and nerve tension, or injury, that result in structural imbalances. Next, I have for three years been practicing and administering Medical Qigong Therapy (along with giving clients specific exercises) for the vital organ systems to help purge excesses, tonify deficiencies, and regulate organ energetics.

I see people of all ages for both "simple" and very complex issues. Pain, digestive concerns and stress/anxiety are frequently chief complaints. The first visit is at least two hours long.

The goal is always that you will have an increased sense of wellbeing and an improvement in your overall health as well as experience a significant improvement in whatever it is that brought you to your initial appointment.
