People find me when they get to the point they need help and support and want to address their issues with the powerful natural healing that acupuncture and herbs and supplements can provide. Often they are lost and fed up with conventional methods. It's my goal to not only provide excellent transformative treatments with my acupuncture and accompanying manual therapies like acupressure and cupping and reflexology but I also share my expertise and advice from the perspective of Chinese medicine and ongoing research.

In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.
