I offer the most effective and gentle acupuncture, cosmetic acupuncture, herbs, cranio sacral, and many modalities under Traditional Chinese Medicine.
I work with people in all ages and stages of life.
I look forward to working with you!
Education/Training
I graduated with a Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and a Tui Na certificate from the Arizona School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. During school, I had a special interest in peripheral neuropathy due to chemotherapy and radiology treatment and wrote my Master’s Project describing my findings and treatments implemented on my patients with such conditions.
Bio
My first career after college was as a Registered Veterinary Technician. I love animals and wanted to care for them in their time of need, and to be a voice for them when they didn’t have one. I did this for ten years all the while dabbling in herbal studies and natural medicine. I decided to make my hobby into a living and graduated from acupuncture and Chinese herbal school.
I am grateful for having the experience of treating many children of all ages at the pain clinic at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Acupuncture is amazing for children and there are many needle- free options for them! I also gained experience working at holistic veterinary clinics, and have literally seen miracles happen before my eyes!
I am very blessed that I love what I do for a living. I deeply enjoy connecting and getting to know everyone I work with; I always treat my clients as the individual they are. People describe me with a compassionate, gentle and kind disposition which my clients appreciate.
