“Hello! My goal as an Acupuncture Physician is to treat the whole person: Body, Mind & Soul. Symptoms are the body's distress signal; but it's best to treat the person, not the symptom. That's why a thorough examination is necessary to accurately diagnose why YOU are having symptoms. The 90 minute initial examination includes questioning, pulse & tongue diagnosis, structural assessment (leg length / spinal subluxations), physical palpation of organs, and blood pressure. This serves as the basis for a treatment plan to address your complaints. By diagnosing the underlying cause, I focus treatments for the most direct approach to healing.
I use a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 5-Element Acupuncture, Herbs, Oriental (massage-like) Body Work, Bach Flower Essences and The Neuro-Emotional Technique, which allows me to assist my patients from a physical as well as mental, emotional and soul/spiritual perspective. I honor each patient's unique healing process.
The body has an innate ability to heal itself. Stress, diet, toxicity, physical injuries, emotional traumas- these can all take their toll on our well being. I engage my patients in their healing process, and encourage them to make changes that will return them to their natural state of vibrant health!”
