Elizabeth Corr, Dipl. OM, L. OM
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!
