My specialty is in emotional concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression, and PTSD.
I am very interested in the inner tradition of Chinese medicine, which is concerned as much with the physical health as with spiritual and emotional wellbeing. It is my belief that when we are living our destiny, from a place of centeredness, we are less susceptible to illness. As acupuncture can produce a deep sense of well being it supports these journeys.

I believe people can heal themselves when given the right plan and priorities. I have been in practice for close to twenty years focusing on Acupuncture and Sports Medicine. During this time I have worked with professional athletes, musicians, recreational athletes, adults and children. My passion is taking someone who is acutely out of balance and seeing them through to full function. I do this by integrating acupuncture, acupressure, exercise, nutrition, breathing techniques, herbal therapies, and nutriceuticals.

Japanese acupuncture technique involves shallow insertion of very thin, delicate needles into points along the Meridians of the body. It is a relaxing spa-like treatment that is gentle and essentially pain free. This style incorporates medical Shiatsu massage while the needles are in the body. I give my patients self-care education, Qigong (energy movement), nutritional counseling and suggest Chinese herbal therapies and/or supplements in a nurturing environment.
