I graduated from medical school in Beijing, and learned Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) from top experts in China. I have practiced TCM in Kansas City for 19 years. Beyond my proficient acupuncture skills, I am specialized in Chinese Herbology. With my profound knowledge and unique understanding of Eastern philosophy, and combining my medical background, I have lots of successful treatment cases in a variety of common and difficult disorders. These may be as common as allergies, flu, common cold, fatigue, and various pains, or as difficult as infertility, stroke, MS, or PD.

I view health and healing as a partnership. My specialties are Women's Health, Sports Medicine (weekend warriors to the professional athlete), Chronic disease management(including cancer support) and Pediatrics; however, I do see a wide range of patients. I do use a combination of acupuncture, customized herb therapies where applicable, as well as food therapy and lifestyle counseling. It is very important to me that my patients feel empowered to regain control of their health.

Acupuncture works to open signaling in your body, enhancing activity along pathways that signal energetic, chemical, nutritional and hormonal resources your body needs to heal and maintain health. Whether you have headaches, pain, fatigue, or dysfunction, acupuncture can optimize health, as well as relieve symptoms, naturally.
Initial visit starts with discussion of your history and current condition, as well as your goals for treatment. I do Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) tongue and pulse reading to aid diagnosis, and design a treatment plan specifically for you. The initial visit includes your first treatment.
