Modern life places constant demands on the body and mind. Many of the people I see come in feeling overwhelmed, run down, or “stuck in overdrive,” experiencing pain, stress, anxiety, poor sleep, digestive and hormonal concerns , or persistent tension that affects their quality of life. As an Acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, I take a whole-person approach to care rather than focusing on symptoms alone. I consider how your nervous system, movement, sleep, digestion, nutrition, lifestyle, and emotional wellbeing work together to influence your overall health. I have advanced training in musculoskeletal and electro-acupuncture, with a particular interest in treating pain, movement dysfunction, and chronic tension. Every treatment begins with a thorough assessment of your health history, current concerns, and goals, allowing your care to be tailored to your individual needs. Many of my appointments are 90 minutes, giving us time to combine acupuncture with hands-on therapies such as Tui Na, cupping , guasha , acupressure, reflexology, and head massage when appropriate. I enjoy creating a calm, restorative treatment experience that encourages deep relaxation, helps settle the nervous system, and allows you to reconnect with your body. I believe that simple, realistic nutrition and lifestyle habits can complement acupuncture treatment. When appropriate, I offer practical education and guidance within my scope of practice that fits into everyday life, helping you take an active role in supporting your health and wellbeing. I especially enjoy working with people who are curious about their health and are looking for a thoughtful, collaborative approach to care. My hope is that you’ll leave each treatment feeling heard, supported, and with a better understanding of your body, along with practical tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and ease. Outside the Clinic Outside the clinic, you’ll often find me painting, spending time in nature, listening to music, or exploring philosophy and lifelong learning. These interests have shaped my understanding that health is not only about addressing symptoms, but also about cultivating balance, resilience, and a deeper connection with ourselves and our everyday lives. I strive to bring that same sense of presence into my practice by creating a calm, thoughtful environment where you feel heard, understood, and cared for.
