My specialty is Japanese Style Acupuncture , this is a gentle style of Acupuncture that focuses on the root cause of an individuals problem. Diagnosis is done by visual observation, asking questions and by palpating the body. In particular I examine the the radial pulse and the abdomen. These are the areas of the body that give the most information about the core or root cause of a persons problem. Once a pattern of disharmony is found I treat the core/root cause to build a foundation so that the presenting symptoms can truly be resolved. These presenting symptoms are what brings a person in for treatment to begin with. By treating the root first it is much easier to have a lasting effect in treating and resolving the symptoms. This is the heart of Japanese style Acupuncture. I also use the balance method of Acupuncture. This is a Chinese style of Acupuncture that many times can yield immediate results. This works especially well with issues of pain and physical discomfort.

Lifestyle, diet and stress are some of the things that can move us toward or away from healthy balance. Using a combination of Chinese and Japanese acupuncture I treat gently yet effectively for a whole range of health issues, ranging from allergies to women's health to pain to emotional issues and more. I look at lifestyle, diet, emotions and stress and, along with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, help my patients feel better in their daily lives, physically, mentally and emotionally. My goal is to help each person live healthfully and without pain. I give them tools to help them achieve that goal, empowering patients to take charge of their own health.
