My goal is to help you achieve radiant health! I have 20 years of experience working in Orthopedics & Chinese Medicine.
I believe we have a fundamental right to enjoy good health: to sleep well, to awaken refreshed- to move through our days with abundant energy & clarity of thought- to feel connected to our friends, family, co-workers and our environment. Yet the stressful demands of urban living have made it increasingly difficult to lead healthful, happy lives. Chinese Medicine offers an opportunity to rebalance and to revitalize- to make positive changes in our well-being: to recover from illness or injury; to feel...better!

Orthopedics, pain, and chronic health disorders are successfully treated.
My ideal client is interested in returning themselves to optimal health, and is interested in doing what it takes to achieve that. I use acupuncture and Functional Medicine- science based herbalism and nutrition- to help them achieve these goals. I specialize in treating orthopedic pain conditions, Hashimotos's thyroiditis, Metabolic Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, autoimmune, digestive, inflammatory, and chronic ill health conditions. The mechanisms behind these are one and proper identification of the underlying issues and proper treatment and lifestyle modification can have a dramatic impact. I use modern lab work along with traditional methods to identify these issues.

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.

It was precious experience for me as I was able to see and treat various medical conditions from the age of one-month-old babies to over 100-years-old elders. In Japan, acupuncture has been used extensively to treat childhood ailments. For youger childrens, I use special pediatric tools that developed about 300 years ago in Japan. Childrens, actually, respond better and faster than adults due to their sensitivity.
