My Method
I use an integrative approach to health. My practice is evidence based and rooted in the ancient wisdom of Chinese Medicine.
What to expect
A typical session involves an in depth discussion about your health. I will ask many questions about indicators of your well being and will examine your tongue, pulse and abdomen. Each session, as you move closer to balance, these indicators will be re-assessed. If results are available I will analyze pathology results. Your appointment will include acupuncture and cupping, guasha and moxabustion. Included can be prescriptions for an individualized herbal formula or supplements. You will receive resources on diet and lifestyle.
Personalized care
Personalized care means that your health plan is specific to you. No two people will have the same treatment, even if they share the same symptoms. East Asian medicine uses pattern identification that are unique to each individual. This approach seeks to understand the root causes of illness, and treat the cause.
