I enjoy treating people who want to take an active role in their health. I work with the body's innate ability to heal by promoting balance and removing health obstacles. I work hard to understand you as an idividual, and not as a list of symptoms. I do my best to educate and communicate about your treatment, so that you feel comfortable every step of the way. I encourage you to schedule a free consultation to get to know each other and get all of your questions answered before we begin our partnership in your health care.

My ideal client is someone struggling with chronic pain, stress, fatigue, or digestive issues—frustrated with conventional treatments that don’t offer lasting relief. They need a natural, effective approach that addresses the root cause, not just symptoms. Their goal is to feel better, move freely, and reclaim their energy. They want acupuncture because they’re seeking balance, holistic healing, and long-term wellness. They come to The Point because they want expert care that integrates both Eastern and Western medicine for real, sustainable results.

I've seen the strengths and weaknesses of modern medicine firsthand as a Medic and Critical Care Nurse over 23 years. There is no easy way to convey the power I've s seen through Eastern Medicine techniques, many of which are now being brought to the mainstream. Whether it's dietary therapy, herbal medicine, needling, cupping, they have their roots in Eastern Medicine. The modern takes on these tools often lack the unifying vision for how and when to use them, when not to, when to be gentle and when to be more aggressive. These are the kinds of nuances only a comprehensively trained practitioner can offer to you.

Smart healthcare and results are my passion! Using a body constitution approach, I tailor treatments for nerve and joint pain, gastrointestinal and auto-immune disorders. Knowing your particular body constitution is vital since your treatment could be completely different from someone else even if you have the exact same symptoms and diagnosis. What you eat is also very important so you know how to maintain the treatments you receive from me. As part of my care, every patient receives comprehensive dietary and lifestyle activities counseling.
