I have practiced acupuncture since 1990, predominantly in the 5 Element Style. I offer care for any health and wellness needs you may have and that is because intrinsically acupuncture treats the whole of you - which is why it is called "wholistic" medicine. By its very nature it cannot help but affect every part of your body, mind and spirit.

One treats symptoms by looking at the constitution - the core of a person. Symptoms are like leaves on a tree - they are highly visible - but the health of the leaves is determined more by the core, or what is going on at the root of the plant. If diagnostics are focused on the root, then any symptoms that have arisen from disharmony there can be worked on so that your system can flourish and express its natural state of heath, which is seen in a healthy body, sound mind, and conscious spirit.

Goals of my work:

• To alleviate pain both physical and emotional by serving the patient at the level he or she is seeking relief.
• To educate about the health potential that is often beyond and above the initial symptom that makes a person seek help.
• To nourish the spirit and awaken inspiration, joy, propriety, loyalty, a sense of value, wisdom, and compassion.
• Please read more about me and the styles of acupuncture that I practice so that you can better understand the potential of this form of healthcare.

May the force be with you!
