If you’re looking for a practice where you’re treated as an individual in a calm and nurturing environment then my practice might be for you. When I started Different Drummer Acupuncture in 1998 I tried to make it a place that people would want to come to and based on the comments I get from my patients I think that I’ve succeeded. Acupuncture is a complete medical system and as such can treat almost anything. That said I specialize in treating sports injuries in both adults and children, women’s health including fertility and pregnancy and all types of pain. In addition I work on allergies, colds and flu. By it’s very nature acupuncture is all about balance so I also find myself treating stress, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, digestive problems and lack of energy. I also do Mei Zen facial acupuncture where I can tonify and lift your face. By treating the person not just the symptom I get better overall results than if I just treat the symptom. One of the things I enjoy most about my practice is that I have entire families coming to me. It’s especially nice to be able to treat a preteen or teen and teach them about acupuncture and the importance of maintaining good health. I believe that the less stress one can have in their life the better so I have evening and weekend appointment times.

I have a practice in a beautiful office in Oakland. I treat a lot of people with the following issues: stress, pain, insomnia, difficulty conceiving, menstrual difficulties, and digestive problems. I love what I do and spend time with each patient determining what the root cause of their issue is so that they can feel better as quickly as possible and feel empowered about their health. I often study with Richard Tan and use his style of treatment when I feel it is appropriate.

I have an eclectic practice, using Acupuncture and massage techniques, which are determined, specifically for each person, individually. I have been able to help people who are in pain, who have had injuries, or have headaches, problems with their hearing, ear infections, people who can't sleep, who have digestive problems to even depression and for those who just need help with chronic problems. I also work with my husband, Doug Tessler, who offers live healing music; Together, we offer Qi Gong workshops and help people, in groups and "One on One". I look at each person's diet and their surroundings. I usually go to people's homes, as I work with the "Alpha-Stim", which helps your own body, produce extra encephalons and endorphins, which can change your body chemistry, significantly. ~ Because of this change, I feel that people, after a treatment, should be able to relax and not have to drive anywhere, afterwards. So, I come to you. Tho, I do also practice, out of a few offices, and can offer an office location, as well, to patients. I especially like helping the elderly. I have worked with people who have Parkinsons and have helped reduce their shaking. I've worked with people, with health challenges ranging from back pain, to depression and insomnia, to even just foot pain, like plantar fascitis. I have also helped women with menopausal symptoms thru acupuncture. Also, due to the FOUR things, that United Health Care, will now pay for - I would like to share their list for comedic relief ~ As, United Health Care's list, only covers these four things ~ Yes, it is quite funny and almost entertaining .. to share, that United Health Care Insurance, will now cover and accept, and pay Acupuncture Physicians to treat only 4 things ! and the envelope - please ; Unfortunately - this may seem - like material, for a stand up comedy routine - But for now - this is the new 2021 Info - - Most importantly, United Health Care will NOW - pay for NOT only post surgical pain, - due to Dental surgery ! ~ BUT - Now, I have to update this as United Health Care will now - also let you call an Acupuncture Physician and cover treatment, for Low Back pain ! Tho, I will assure you, that Acupuncture has helped many people around the world, for hundreds of years, United Health Care is so far only recognizing the effects that Acupuncture can have on Low Back pain and will NOT cover Acupuncture treatments, for much of any other kind pain, besides dental pain after or due to post surgical pain. However, I will point out, that I have helped a lot of people who have had post surgical pain from Dental surgery, so I will agree that Acupuncture can help and has helped many people with dental pain ! I also have helped people with the other three other things, that United Health Care, is willing to offer to pay Acupuncture, for ; 1 - Nausea and vomiting from post surgery 2 - Nausea and vomiting from pregnancy and 3 - Nausea and vomiting from chemotherapy, ~ I also teach people, about the health benefits of a healthy diet and how to prepare raw foods ~ Plus .... I also teach about Qi Gong & teach people, about How to use essential oils and How to make your water safe to drink, without floride. Please also know that I can help you, find the right supplements and safe products to use for yourself and to use in your home, too !

When my health problems were not adequately addressed by modern medicine, I looked for other answers. That search led me to Chinese medicine. Today, I am a licensed acupuncturist helping people deal with their health problems using a combination of acupuncture, herbal and Chinese diet therapy, and common sense. Wellness is a combination of taking in the right foods, getting the exercise appropriate for your situation, good sleep, a healthy mindset, and appropriate treatment when life gets you off balance. I specialize in treating chronic problems and rebuilding health. A few of the issues I regularly treat include adrenal fatigue, fibromyalgia, chemical and environmental sensitivity, Crohn's disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic pain, and stress. My practice is a partnership with my patients--we work together to analyze each individual's situation and condition. I encourage my patients to take great care of themselves, and when necessary, to build a wellness team to move toward vibrant health. I work with an amazing team in the office, including a chiropractor, NAET practitioner, and massage therapists, and regularly refer to other health professionals when I feel it is helpful.

With 18 years experience -- an acupuncture patient before I became an acupuncturist -- I know that acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are effective treatments for chronic ailments. I, like many patients, was a patient of last resort. Are you a patient of last resort? Why wait? Acupuncture can complement your medical treatment, or provide a treatment when standard medical care doesn't provide you the wellness you seek. In addition to acupuncture I provide custom herbal prescriptions based on Traditional Chinese Medicine formulas; tui na orthopedic massage; moxibustion; and gua sha as needed. I use gentle needling techniques based on the Japanese style, and provide a quiet, private treatment setting. Superbills are available for those with insurance to submit to their insurance companies for reimbursement. Specializing in autoimmune disease, cancer therapy support, anxiety/depression. Available for brief phone consultations to help you decide whether acupuncture and Chinese Medicine will help with your health concern and improve your quality of life. Acupuncture can also be used as preventive wellness care -- the best time to be treated is when you have no complaint at all (four times a year when the seasons change to keep your body at optimum health). Other self care techniques I am trained to help you with: dietary recommendations, sleep hygiene, exercise program regimens. Whether you're dealing with a chronic illness, stress, or just want to stay well, consider seeing me for regular treatments. Both effective and affordable, acupuncture is worth your time and investment.

I enjoy working with Women's health, such as hormone imbalances,, including menopause and fertility issues. I also work with people who have digestive disturbances, are interested in weight loss, pain relief, emotional discomfort, as well as the common cold and many un-common discomforts. People often ask me how I got involved in Chinese Medicine. I have always been interested in things that are foreign. The first time I tried acupuncture, I was amazed by the deep relaxation I experienced. I felt that my body, mind and emotions were ‘reset’. I was deeply present in the moment, as when I experience deep meditation. Part of the wonderful things about acupuncture, are the diagnostic techniques which help us to diagnose and treat complicated chronic conditions which western/biomedicine has difficulty detecting and resolving. When I treat my patients, I am excited at the depth this medicine has which aids me to treat what I see and helps people align what they are feeling in their body with a medical philosophy, which coincides with their experience. The way I mirror their issues gives them insight into how to help them create change. Acupuncture gives us the opportunity to take a moment to connect with the big picture thru the regulation of our body processes. This gives a patient space from their small problems and relaxation, which is the first step in evolving our health. I’ve seen people dramatically change their lives, their health, their circumstances and their outlook with the benefits of this medicine. Acupuncture opens the doors, opens our eyes to changing our perceptions of our health, our lifestyles and our relationships. I have seen this medicine transform the way people create their lives as they unblock and release the physical habits stagnating their choices. We all experience various forms of pain and discomfort. I want to help people understand their body and mind with insight so they may evolve themselves to healthier, joyous, choices and experiences and consciousness in their lives.

Acupuncture, acupressure, and medical massage. I blend the art and intuition of ancient Eastern traditions with the practical application of modern Western science… and I'm dedicated to providing powerful, personalized care. I *love* helping people heal themselves. My specialties are musculoskeletal dysfunction (neck, back, knees, etc), sleep, and stress disorders, but I treat everything from migraines to evicting overdue babies. The medical massage I offer is osteopathic-based. It uses the neurological system to reset tight muscles, so it lasts longer than a typical massage. My acupuncture is extremely gentle: Most patients fall asleep during my treatments. I only see one patient at a time, and the session includes whatever combination of needles and bodywork are appropriate. I do smoking cessation treatments for free (tell a friend!).

My practice, Balanced Health Acupuncture is a holistic healing center dedicated to getting you back on the path of healing and well-being using acupuncture, various relaxation techniques, essential oils, Chinese Herbal Medicine microcurrent and color light therapy.

I teach you how to take better care of yourself so that you are able to get better faster. I make recommendations that work and have a lasting effect on your health. Using microcurrent and color light therapy I am able to get pain issues such as sports injuries, fibormyalgia and headaches resolved quickly. Are you avoiding acupuncture because of needles? I offer very effective treatments using microcurrent and color light therapy that do not require the use of needles. So no matter what your dis-ease is, you owe it to yourself to get the caring, effective help that you need and that is with me. If you are ready to live pain free in a vibrant, healthy, energetic body, then give me a call to set up an appointment for a consultation.

Holistic Healthcare for the whole family. "I am a Doctor of Oriental Medicine and a Licensed Acupuncturist. My unique education is complementary based in both Eastern and Western medicines. I hold a Master's degree in Chinese Herbology and have worked to receive advanced certification in treating immune dysfunction. As a general practitioner, I provide one-stop healthcare to the entire family. Some of my areas of experience are in Digestion, Gynecology/Obstetrics, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, Immune function and Liver disorders. I have also seen great results with auto-immune disease, pain management, allergies, interstitial cystitis, fibromyalgia, weight loss, candida, as well as a myriad of other health concerns. One major area of focus in my practice is the study of the human microbiome and how an imbalance in this system, as well as the gastrointestinal system in general, leads to systemic disease in the body. By looking at the bacteria, liver and gallbladder function, nutritional metabolism and absorption as well as neurotransmitters, we are able to uncover the causes of many symptoms. My practice philosophy is to provide complete, compassionate, individualized healthcare. I believe in uncovering the root of disease in the body to provide long term results as well as prevention. One of the beauties of Chinese Medicine is its ability to diagnose the individuals constitution in order to pinpoint their specific situation rather than using protocols. I believe that this is one of the reasons that we see such amazing results. It is my mission to provide patients with options in order for them to make empowered and educated choices for themselves and their children's health. People are thrilled when they learn that, quite often, medications and other invasive procedures can be avoided with the timely use of natural medicine.”

I am passionate about Chinese Medicine, and have witnessed its powerful effective of healing a person at the body, mind, and spirit levels. Every treatment is different for each person because of one's unique life experience. As my practice has grown over the past thirteen years, so has my way of helping people get to the root of an illness. Sometimes, moving a physical pain has a tremendous impact on a person's life. Other times, the physical pain is a manifestation of a deeper issue. Using a blend of many traditions, including Five Element and TCM, I help a person see where there is stuckness. Lifestyle coaching is an important part of treatments, since developing healthier habits outside of the treatment room is the key to keeping one in balance. Using the spirit of the points and their empirical functions help a person with these changes. Herbal medicine, when appropriate, can also help someone have a "treatment" every day, since the herbs improve the functioning of the whole being, not merely band-aid the problem. Being a practitioner of acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is extremely rewarding and the pursuit of knowledge never ending!

If you live in the Tempe – Phoenix area, chances are you’ve found your way to this page because you’re tired of pain, fed up with weight loss, burned out by stress, or are just plain tired of being tired! (d. all of the above?) You’ve come to the right place. I can help. If you’re like most people, you probably don’t know too much about acupuncture treatments, and might have even thought about running away at the thought of needles somewhere on this page. No worries! Even the burliest ex-football player tattooed Marines tend to be nervous about this stuff, but let me be the first to put those fears to rest. Imagine this: a place where you can go that feels as cozy as your living room. You sit down and have a chat – I mean really talk about you: your devotion to your brilliant two-year old, your 3:00 chocolate cravings, that ridiculous knee pain that screams at you during bowling night , and your quest to find out where you left your energy. Mind and body, it’s all you – and it’s all related (you knew you weren’t crazy, right?) That’s the beauty of Chinese medicine. After your chat, you get to have the deepest, most amazing nap, blissfully drifting in a sea of tranquil music and warm heat therapy. If you closed your eyes, you were probably oblivious to those tiny needles that somehow magically rearranged everything in there and made you feel like things were just right in the world again. Seriously. It feels that easy. If you’re tired of conventional treatments (pills, surgery, injections) and conventional wisdom (“you’re getting older,” “it’s just arthritis,” “learn to live with it,”) give health another chance. You deserve it. I’ll try to make sense of it all for you here. I want to get to the core of your health issues and I know you do too. Using acupuncture, acupressure, natural herbal medicine and personal nutrition plans, we can optimize your body’s healing and help you reclaim your energy and well-being.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (acupuncture, gua sha, tui na, cupping, herbal remedies, etc.) has been around for thousands of years. Its a safe and effective form of health care, and it gets to the root of the problem. Good health depends on normal flow of blood, body fluid and energy (qi – force that holds everything together). When qi, blood and/or body fluid becomes stagnant it will lead to a disruption in the flow of energy and fluids which will affect the surrounding tissues and eventually affect the organs. The placement of needles, which are very fine and relatively painless, affect the qi of the body by either bringing energy to the area or removing excess energy from the area. Once the organs have become affected, treatment is better with the addition of herbal formulas. Regular treatments are vital to prevention of disease and expedite healing. If your energy is flowing smoothly, your body is working at optimal levels and no disease can occur. An old Chinese saying is: “The inferior Doctor treats the sickness. The good Doctor treats the person and the sickness. The superior Doctor prevents sickness.” Depending on the condition being treated, you can feel relief immediately or in just a few sessions. Chronic cases will tend to take more time. In either acute or chronic cases, acupuncture will help ease you through whatever healing crisis you are facing.

What Makes Japanese Acupuncture Special Thinner Needles -The obvious differences between Japanese style acupuncture and that of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) are that the needles are far finer (using needles barely thicker than a human hair), and that they are inserted often barely deeper than 1 or 2mm, with an absolute minimum of manipulation. In some instances, they are not inserted at all. -For a first-time acupuncture patient who is worried about needles, Japanese acupuncture might be the style to try first because it tends to be more comfortable for the patient. -In Japanese Meridian Therapy there is a focus on conserving the Qi of the patient. The practitioner must be mindful of ways the patient can lose qi: needling (especially deep needling or strong stimulation of the needle), stress, and the inappropriate use of a guide tube More Emphasis on Palpation -The diagnosis is very hands-on. In fact, 40% of licensed acupuncturists in Japan are blind, so there is much emphasis on touch and palpation. -Much like Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), we look at the tongue and pulse to see what’s going on at a deeper level in the body. -Unlike TCM, we also do abdominal palpation where the abdomen is split up into different areas to represent different organ systems. We can tell a lot about what is going on by palpating the abdomen. -Also, instead of just choosing acupuncture points from a textbook based on point functions, we palpate the channels in order to decide which acupuncture points are most appropriate for the individual patient. Front and Back Treatments -We always treat the front and back side of the body. This promotes balance. -We assess both the root and branch of the presenting illness. We cannot just look at the local area of pain; instead we must look at the person’s individual constitution. We must figure out what underlying deficiencies allowed this disease process to take place. Then we can strengthen from the root so the illness will not come back. -Every person is born with a constitutional deficiency of one of the main yin organ systems. We look at different characteristics and features of the individual to help us assess what the constitutional deficiency is and how it led to the current state. If Japanese Acupuncture sounds right for you, then make an appointment with us. We look forward to meeting you!

Acupuncture & Depression Depression can be debilitating for those who experience it. Prolonged feelings of sadness, discouragement and hopelessness greatly affect the quality of life. At one time or another, most of us have experienced some form of depression. It's a healthy response to events in our lives that seem overwhelming. When we are balanced, physically and emotionally, we can easily bounce-back from a depressed state and move on with our lives. But, when negative feelings and emotions become persistent and consistent, depression may set in. Today, more than 28 million Americans are taking antidepressant and anti-anxiety drugs. (1) In 1998, doctors wrote more than 130 million prescriptions for antidepressants. According to the Physicians' Desk Reference, the top antidepressant drugs only address signs and symptoms associated with depression, and can cause a variety of side effects, including insomnia, anxiety, listlessness, fatigue, body rash, tremors, facial tics, diarrhea, loss of appetite and sexual dysfunction. Depression alone is stressful enough on the body and while medications may provide temporary relief, they can further compromise our health. How can acupuncture help? Acupuncture and Chinese medicine incorporate thousands of years of experience in treating depression. Not only can they help to alleviate the signs and symptoms accompanying depression, they can address the root causes and underlying imbalances that have contributed to the problem, safely and naturally. Acupuncturists are aware of the powerful interplay between our body and emotions the two are inseparable. When we experience emotional upset, our internal environment becomes disrupted. Likewise, when we experience physical problems, our emotions can become greatly affected.

Chinese medicine treats the root cause. In Chinese medicine, the root cause is always an “energy diagnosis,” which tells us about the state of your energy in the body. Acupuncture is an art we commonly use in the clinic to treat a wide variety of conditions and health challenges. We even use acupuncture for “tune ups” or seasonal wellness visits, for people who enjoy acupuncture as a way of staying balanced, focused and healthy. We may use acupuncture to treat a common cold, injuries, or to support a cancer patient in their care. We may use acupuncture in the care of women’s health, men’s health, children’s medicine and fertility. Acupuncture is not only an ancient art, but rapidly becoming a modern science and integrated into western medical care for it’s very strongly positive effects, and “side effect free. Basically, it involves insertion of very tiny (very fine) needles into the skin along acupuncture points, to affect the flow of energy (qi) in the body. Qi flows along channels in the body to organs and cells in the body, nourishing and promoting blood flow along the way, by Chinese Medicine theory. When qi is abundant and flows freely, the body can have good health. Hence, abundant qi and circulation in the body is one of the main goals of treatment with Chinese medicine. It also feels nice. Peaceful, relaxing and calming to the body, mind and spirit… it is just good for your health. Clinical science and medicine is showing many ways that acupuncture is of benefit to your health. It is side effect free, reasonable to afford, and has the gift of addressing the root cause and not just treating symptoms. Herbal Medicines in Chinese medicine, herbal medicine is complex –and requires a skilled practitioner to diagnose and prescribe appropriate herbal combinations. Chinese medicine formulas balance herbs together to support each other and give optimal effect based upon energy diagnosis. As part of care, for those whom it is appropriate, herbal formulas may be recommended as part of your care. Medical Qigong — Also known as Qigong Therapy, or “External Qi Healing,” or “Energy Healing,” is an art that is perhaps the most ancient of all of the Chinese medicine healing arts. Qigong healing as a therapy is a peaceful art of healing with energy that is done in various ways, according to patient needs, in the clinic. It involves the practiioner helping the patient to remove energy blockages and restore balance and flow through peaceful healing mind/body techniques, some of which are ancient arts, as well as teaching meditations, mind/body methods and movement, visualization and sensing techniques so that the patient can work with their own energy to improve their health. It is peaceful, but also empowering. Anyone can learn qi healing techniques to improve their health. For many, it is a wonderful part of everyday life.

We provide a very gentle and personalized treatment. We see only one patient at the time and use as few needles as possible. Other therapies are included as part of the treatment if needed. Two hours are reserved for the first appointment to discuss everything and follow up 1 hour and 1/2. Come and try the difference!
