Health Professionals in San Francisco, CA
Hi, I'm Brenna! I work with adolescents, teens and adults who are struggling with disordered eating, recovery from chronic dieting, binge-restrict cycles, body image concerns and wanting to be able to pursue health without obsession. It's common to be interested in or passionate about food, health, wellness exercise - but when those interests become inflexible, or don't allow for you to spend time and feel present doing other things that are important to you, it can be a sign to reach out.

I offer an integrated approach to Chiropractic treatment, drawing from my diverse training and experience in several different healing art systems. After a careful and thorough history and examination of your physical body and other forces that come to bear, I assemble an individualized treatment plan for you. The treatment is dynamic, highly participatory and interactive, and is not only geared toward solving the acute problem you've brought in the door, but also to identifying and working with your underlying functional patterns. The work is empowering, and often produces excellent results where previous treatments have failed.

I believe that there are three fundamental elements of a happy, contented life. One, we need to be able to eat, digest, and eliminate every day. Two, we need to be able to sleep well. Third, we need good sex life. Based on these three elements, we build life and pursuit dreams. However, stress, unhealthy diet and eating habits, and many environmental pollutions make the foundation of our lives unbalanced, thus, we experience depression, anxiety, digestive disorder and sexual dysfunction. My mission is to help people to build a healthy foundation of life with happiness an contentment.

I practiced with my father for 5 years before he retired, and I learned from him what really works to get people well. He started practice in 1959 and had a wealth of experience that I learned from. I incoporated that into the latest techniques that I learned at Life Chiropractic College West, an excellent technical school, to get a very well rounded technical expertise.

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.

I am a practitioner of traditional Japanese acupuncture and have studied extensively with master acupuncturist Koji Ichihashi of the Kurumadani School of Japan. Japanese acupuncture technique involves shallow insertion of very thin, delicate needles into points along the Meridians of the body. It is a relaxing spa-like treatment that is gentle and essentially pain free. This style incorporates medical Shiatsu massage while the needles are in the body. I give my patients self-care education, Qigong (energy movement), nutritional counseling and suggest Chinese herbal therapies and/or supplements in a nurturing environment.
