As a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I seek to find balance in the human body. TCM considers physiological, emotional, environmental aspects as being equally important puzzle pieces connected to make up a beautiful and complete picture of wellness.
My unique post graduate studies, and hands-on clinical experience of over 10 years, has refined my skills to specialize in several key areas designed to support holistic health from the inside out:
physical pain
skin rejuvenation
digestion/ metabolism
hormone balancing
stress management
Having an education in many styles of massage therapy, in addition to receiving multiple regenerative needling, and advanced Clinical Pilates instructor certifications, has allowed me to properly relieve:
acute/ chronic muscle tightness
throbbing/ aching/ pulsing/ cramping
frozen shoulder/ shoulder blades
lower back/ hip flexor/ SI joint
sciatica/ tingling/ shooting/ numbness
tennis/ golfers elbow/ tendonitis
carpal tunnel/ wrist/ hand/ trigger finger
weakness/ instability/ compensation
postural tendencies/ repetitive/ overuse
tension headaches/ migraines
Often, there are further factors to consider after undoing knots and kinks in the body: hydration, nutrition, movement, rest. This will help to keep the aches away once they’ve been released by one or more of these tools/ techniques:
acupuncture/ electro acupuncture
dry needling/ trigger point
cupping/ gua sha
massage/ tuina
active/ passive stretching
exercise/ re-engagement
alignment correction
supplementation/ herbs
nutrition counseling
Skin Health is another fascinating field where the internal affects the external to a great degree. As we are all aware, what we eat, when we sleep, how we feel, have an immediate effect on our face:
acne/ cystic acne
rosacea/ capillaries
eczema/ psoriasis
dry/ withered lips
dark circles/ puffy eyes
fine lines/ wrinkles
sagging/ hollowing
pigmentation/ spots
TMJ/ facial tension
