I practice Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which includes acupuncture and Chinese herbs. TCM is a holistic medicine that treats the physical aspect while simultaneously addressing the emotional, psychological and spiritual components as well. It treats the whole person, not just an illness. To achieve optimal results, I include the patient in his or her healing as there is greater patient empowerment when a partnership exists between the patient and practitioner. My philosophy is to assist each individual in obtaining balance in all areas of their lives. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a general medicine and is beneficial for a wide range of conditions, such as all types of musculo-skeletal pain and injuries – back pain, all joint pain, arthritis, sciatica.

My goal is to have a smoke-free world! “Tune-ups” - TCM excels as a preventive and for general health maintenance. It’s always better to maintain health than wait for symptoms to appear.

The story of the lotus flower The lotus flower’s life begins as a root buried under murky waters. Despite such unwelcoming conditions, the lotus grows through murky waters becomes a beautiful and pure flower. Like the lotus flower's power to grow out from adversity, your mind, body and spirit has the innate power and knowledge to heal itself from illnesses and dis-eases. Our goal is to assist you in this process with Chinese Medicine. In Chinese Medicine, dis-ease forms when there are imbalances in the body, mind and spirit. Chinese medicine brings balance and harmony through acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutritional counseling, and other modalities such as cupping, Gua Sha, Tui Na and moxabustion. It treats the root, which is the cause of a dis-ease, as well as the symptoms. Without taking care of the root, the symtoms will keep reoccuring. Because every person has a different constitution, living environment, lifestyle, and belief system, we are dedicated to working with your individual needs for a healthier mind, body and spirit.
