Acupuncturists near Pleasant Hill, CA

I have been a Five Element acupuncturist for 35 years. I am deeply committed to help you with your physical symptoms, as well as to support you to live your life with more vitality and ease in all ways. I believe one of my personal strengths, as well as a strength of the Five Element Acupuncture approach, is to see each person as the unique individual that you are, and tailor each treatment to strengthen you in body, mind, and spirit.

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.

I do not simply attempt to treat symptoms, nor do I treat diseases. I treat people. My focus in practicing TCM is holistic; I seek to understand the entire person and the health pattern they have. As you will hear in the testimonial videos on my website, the feedback I get from my patients speaks not only to the effectiveness of my treatments in getting the results they need, but to the safety, comfort and ease they feel when they come in for their appointments. I am interested in being my patients’ partner in meeting their complete health goals.
