My Philosophy

I believe in the natural healing process of the body. Dis-ease usually takes a long time to develop, and therefore takes time to heal. Our bodies are remarkable in the billions of activities that take place every second to help us maintain health. Things we can take control of to help gain back and maintain health include having a healthy diet, exercising regularly, doing daily relaxation techniques, resolving emotional baggage, building a health support team you trust, learning to love yourself and forgiving those around you who may have created pain in your life.

I hope through the wonderful traditions of Chinese medicine and acupuncture to be able help you along your path of being healthy and pain free.
