 How I Can Help You
In addition to my general practice of Acupuncture and Nutrition, I offer a Technique that helps you understand and eliminate your food cravings, reduce allergies and resolve trauma. This combination of Acupuncture and Acupressure can truly accelerate your healing, and these modalities can be used alone or in combination.
This gentle Acupressure Technique (TAT) is highly effective and often requires fewer treatments than acupuncture alone. I believe that being in charge of your health is the basis for enjoying your life more fully, and my goal is to help that be your reality.
Why I Love What I Do
My own food cravings and struggles with food led me to study Nutrition at U.C Davis. During my training I became sadly aware that nutrition knowledge seldom translated into lasting behavioral change. Telling someone not to eat their favorite food was often fruitless, and frankly, painful for everyone involved. I knew there was more to health than what I was being taught, and a holistic approach was the path to healing. I knew that health concerns needed to be addressed from several angles, including mentally, emotionally and physically.
At the age of twenty-one, I sought out Chinese Medicine which answered that need for me and later for my patients. I was having health problems that were not being helped by western medicine. I found what I needed with Herbs, Acupuncture and Nutrition, and that started my journey into holistic health. I was taking biochemistry, learning meditation and Jin Shin Jyutsu, and getting Acupuncture treatments, all of which would help me for many years to come.
It gives me great pride that I can offer real solutions, something that goes deeper than just knowledge and science, but one that can profoundly improve one's quality of life. I am pleased that I can help my patients make the changes they desire, be it with food choices or their overall health.
I am a Licensed Acupuncturist in the state of California and certified Nationally in Oriental Medicine. I hold Masters degrees in Nutrition Sciences and Chinese Medicine. I have a Bachelors of Science in Dietetics and more than 20 years of experience in the health industry.
I look forward to helping you achieve your health goals!
