Health Professionals in Kentucky

As someone with chronic pain who has been on both sides of the table, I have a unique viewpoint on what patients need. I believe that both western medicine and acupuncture have their place in society; neither is "better" than the other. Instead, they work best when used together as part of an overall health plan. My goal is to make acupuncture an easy, sensible part of my patient's lives. I work hard to tailor treatments to each individual so that all of my patients are comfortable with their level of therapy.

Are you struggling with what foods are good to eat and which ones are considered bad for you? Are you fed up with trying fad diet after fad diet with no luck and feeling miserable in the end?

"As a traditional naturopath and acupuncturist my practice is multifold. I work with patients from an individualized perspective, and in addition to acupuncture, utilize nutrition, lifestyle and herbal approaches. There is a strong focus on educating the patient in self-help methods. Patients are encouraged to ask questions and take an active role in their therapy program. I like to give my patients the "fishing pole" and not just the fish! My practice is not an acupuncture factory. I spend at least 45 minutes to over an hour with each patient and take the time to listen, really listen.

I am passionate about clinical dietetics and truly understand how impactful nutrition interventions can be on improving patient & client outcomes.

Many clients seek me out when they are at the end of their rope & have tried everything to resolve pain. Over 23 years experience as a massage therapist. Virtually all physical pain has an emotional component either behind it or attached to it. So beyond treating physical pain I utilize EFT (emotional freedom techniques) to help clients deal with un-resolved emotional events contributing to their pain.

I love working with high school & college aged athletes that want to improve performance. These athletes may be experiencing an unhealthy relationship with food or body image and are looking to change their relationship with food and be more confident in the body that they have.

If you've tried everything to get rid of your IBS, migraines, or fibromyalgia (or other inflammatory conditions) and nothing has worked for you, then you've come to the right place. I use food sensitivity testing and diet counseling to help you get rid of your symptoms and reclaim your life. Sometimes your food can be making you sick (even if it's a "healthy" food). I can help you uncover your food and chemical triggers and then create a diet that works for your body. Everyone needs to eat, why not eat the right foods for your body?

Food is a very important part of our lives. We eat every day - not just because we are hungry, but also because we are happy, sad, celebrating an event or accomplishment, mad, frustrated, because "it's time" or because we are just plain bored. Food can be all these things to people, but really it is nourishment for bodies - to fuel for our bodies for the life we want to live. It can certainly be a part of our happy lives, but should not be the main purpose. I work with people to find this balance between sustenance and overindulgence.

I provide safe, gentle, and effective relief to a wide range of health concerns, with particular emphasis on the treatment of painful conditions, chronic conditions, stress relief and vitality.

Chronic conditions such as allergies, asthma, fibromyalgia, insomnia, digestive issues, migraines and macular degeneration can often be relieved. My treatments are very effective for calming the nervous system, reducing stress, relief from anxiety and promoting whole body wellness.
