Helping individuals find their path to improved health and well-being is not just my profession but my passion as an acupuncturist. My journey into Chinese Medicine began with a profound appreciation for its holistic approach to healing, deeply rooted in harmony with nature. This ancient practice resonated with me on a personal level, as I experienced significant health improvements through its methods.  

 

The decision to study Chinese Medicine was driven by its comprehensive and integrative approach to treating the body, mind, and spirit as a unified whole. Unlike conventional medicine, which often focuses on symptom management, Chinese Medicine seeks to address the root causes of ailments, promoting overall balance and wellness. This philosophy aligns with my belief in the body's inherent ability to heal itself when provided with the right support and environment. 

 

When I learned Chinese Medical theory and the practice of Acupuncture in particular, it explained so many things. For example, the uncomfortable feelings I felt in my body that caused anxiety attacks, that I assumed were irrational, or at the very least not normal, were due to specific imbalances in my energy. I fell in love with the healing power of Acupuncture because it addresses the root cause of all imbalances in the body while also easing symptoms while the body relaxes.
