Below are modalities I practice and services I offer.
I typically incorporate whatever works best for you.


Traditional Oriental Medicine Acupuncture
Traditional Oriental Medicine is grounded in the practice of Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, Tui Na, and Qigong.  
Evidence suggests its beginings could reach back up to 10,000 years ago. It is based on the concept that there are 12 meridians/pathways that cover the body from head to toe. They are distinct, yet interconnected. There are points along these pathways, which when stimulated, have particular influence on the body.
Pain and disease are indications that there is obstruction/stagnation along one or more of the meridians. Acupuncture facilitates the removal of obstruction; thereby allowing the body to heal its self.


Acupuncture
The practice of inserting thin, flexible, sterile needles into specific point of the body to regulate physiologic functions, reduce pain, and promote healing.


Sports and Orthopedic Acupuncture
This treatment focuses on specific muscles and/or functional muscle groups, while addressing any underlying imbalances that may have been responsible, or contributed to the original injury.
Since muscles move bones, this style is usually highly effective in treating both acute and chronic neck and spinal injuries, such as: disc protrusion, herniation and nerve root impingement.  This kind of acupuncture treatment may help you avoid unnecessary surgery.

Few Licensed Acupuncturists (L.Ac.) in the
US have this unique skill set.
~Not suitable for Community Acupuncture Room~

Balance Method Acupuncture
This is a beautiful acupuncture method based on "mirroring" the area of the body that is manifesting disease or injury onto another remote area of the body. It also utilizes the relationships and connections between the channels/meridians. The method incorporates channel theory as well as microcosm/macrocosm theory. Points from the knees to feet, and elbows to hands, and the head are usually used in treatments.This method enables me to treat a specific area of pain, such as the knee, by inserting a needle into an area other than where you may be experiencing pain.

Auricular Acupuncture
The ear is a microsystem of the entire body, meaning that any area of the body may be treated by stimulating the appropriate area of the outside part of the ear.  This is a convenient and highly affective way of administering acupuncture. Any and all conditions may be treated with only ear points.


Esoteric Acupuncture
This style of acupuncture focuses primarily on the treatment of the of the "Etheric" or energetic levels of the body. If you are a Healing Professional, or interested in balancing your  personal energy field & Chakras, you will definitely be interested in and benefit from these treatments. We begin with Traditional Oriental Medical diagnosis and traditional treatments to bring your body into balance and prepare you for the more advanced energetic treatments, which are based upon "Sacred Geometric Patterns".


Nutrition and Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine in Traditional Oriental Medicine has been around since the stone age; the written history reaches back to 5,000 B.C. We occasionally use a single herb, but most often formulas contain from 6-8 to over 20 individual herbs. Herbs are categorized into three groups, Nutritional, Preventive, and Remedial. Herbal medicine is most often utilized for internal medicine. I usually make dietary and herbal recommendations on the second or third appointment.
