Registered Acupuncturist,

Certified Sports Medicine Acupuncture® Specialist

When I was a little girl, I was fascinated by botanical drawings. One of my favorite things to do was going through Maria Treben’s herbalism books and feeling such an awe and wonder by looking at those illustrations

of herbs and plants.

Later I became fascinated by how herbs

can benefit you; the way they influence

our mind and provide healing to our bodies.

No matter where I lived and worked in the world, the idea of a natural way to health and well-being always followed me. My life had come full circle, when I decided to go back to school and study Chinese Medicine, after working in the business world and hospitality industry. Gaining work experience in different fields in different countries has been quite an eye-opener for me, which eventually led me to practice Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture today. It’s more than a job for me, it’s a way of life and my mission.

It has been a great honor of intimately working alongside so many incredible humans who chose to bravely share their stories with me.

For me, acupuncture is an ongoing challenge to grow and understand humankind. When a person comes in for treatment,

I feel drawn into her or his life story. I listen carefully. All the information I gather is being used as a basis for diagnosis. Traditional Acupuncture is not palliation or suppression of symptoms, it is all involvement with the innate workings of a person in bodymindspirit to remove the cause of symptom. Traditional Acupuncture treats the person, not the disease. Through this work I’m stretched to know who the other person is, which is only possible through holding a safe space to my clients, where they feel safe, heard and empowered.

I treat pain in the joints, in the muscles, in the organs even pain that you’ve been told is “all in your head”. In Chinese medicine, we do not separate the body from the mind, so if it’s “in your head”, it’s still real and I take you seriously.
