Philosophy
My goal is to utilize Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine to help empower my patients to take control of their own health and well-being, as I believe that is when the most profound healing occurs. Working with the therapies of Chinese Medicine, I strive to bring the body back into balance: body, mind and spirit. I want to create a true partnership with my patients wherever they may be in their healing journeys, and my varied background in several styles of acupuncture helps me individualize treatments for each patient to attain optimal results. I have personally experienced the profound effects of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in my own health journey, and I look forward to seeing those remarkable transformations in my own patients.
