A Yorba Linda native, I began my studies of Chinese Medicine in the mid-1980's while still attending Esperanza. Now, 30+ years later, I'm super excited to be back in my hometown, offering my neighbors and friends quality acupuncture services! I was privileged to train at some of the top schools both in the US and China, graduating with honors, and am one of few caucasians to have earned bachelor's, master's and doctoral level degrees in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. My residencies in integrative medicine included pain management, immune support, and oncology care in western clinical settings.

The main objectives of acupuncture treatment are relieving pain and other symptoms, strengthening the immune system, and balancing, harmonizing and integrating the functions of the internal organs with each other, making for a unified, healthy person, rather than a collection of fragmented, disharmonious parts. Oriental Medicine addresses and seeks to find the root or the cause of the problem rather than just merely treating the manifestations of various symptoms.
Acupuncture increases the blood circulation to the area where the fine tiny needles are inserted. With increased circulation of blood the muscles relax, and they become tightened.
