My ideal clients are people ready to take an active role in their health — often dealing with chronic or nerve-related pain, headaches, an injury that hasn't fully healed, or the physical toll of stress and poor sleep. Many have tried other approaches and want care that treats the whole picture, not just symptoms. I help them move forward with individualized, evidence-based acupuncture, electroacupuncture, dry needling, and herbal medicine, clear and measurable goals, and honest check-ins so they always know whether treatment is working. I also welcome clients seeking facial acupuncture and microneedling for skin health.
