My immediate concern is your discomfort. Your pain is addressed from the first visit; I use hands-on technques to reduce muscle spasms, joint tension, and disc pressure on the nerves: i.e. a tension headache can be reduced in seconds. I also prescribe foot orthotics for knee, hip, and back pain. Spinal assymetry is a cause of chronic back pain. Adults will find their sport and on-the-job injuries resove quickly; everyone wants to return to their faivorite activities as soon as possible. I like helping active people to stay active.

I came to nutritional & lifestyle medicine after 15 years as part of an historic team of doctors and nurses at St. Vincent's Hospital in Greenwich Village, New York. Over the years I came to appreciate the need for a different, better way to diagnose and treat most of the chronic health conditions of our day; an approach that appreciates the delicate and sophisticated interplay of the body's physiological systems; an approach that is informed by "outside-the box" thinking in order to find clues often missed by the mills and mill workers that make up today's health care system. "Physiology over pharmacology!"

The work I do is based on Chinese medicine, one of the oldest holistic healing traditions, and can address many different kinds of issues. Health, according to Chinese medicine, occurs when the "qi", or "vital energy", is moving smoothly and harmoniously through its pathways in the body. When this happens we experience a wonderful sense of well-being and connection in our lives. This can be felt on the physical level, pain management is one benefit, and also on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels, as the qi affects all aspects of our being.
