Treatments
I have been trained to treat both physical and emotional issues in both adult and pediatric patients.
What does that include?
The list is extensive, and not limited to the following:
Pain of all kinds. Digestive issues. Women’s health issues. Stress and anxiety. Sleep issues.
If you are asking yourself, can Acupuncture help me with “X,” the answer is most likely, “Yes.”
I have also spent time volunteering at The Won Institute’s Go To Them and Veteran’s clinics, learning to treat patients with a variety of issues, including those in addiction recovery, using the NADA protocol.
What I Treat
How I Treat
Acupuncture and Asian Medicine come from rich and vibrant cultural and medical traditions, with many different styles of treatment.
My Acupuncture training is primarily in two types: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Constitutional Five Element Acupuncture.
TCM is a style of acupuncture that all American acupuncturists are required to learn in order to take their board examinations and acquire licensure in most states. It is effective in treating a huge variety of health conditions. TCM style Acupuncture is somewhat similar to how your regular “western” doctor treats all high blood pressure with a collection of approved medications, mixing and matching until the right combination is found.
Constitutional Five Element Acupuncture is a slightly different school, focusing on treating patients within an individual elemental imbalance. It is just as effective as TCM style acupuncture, and can be used for all of the same health challenges you face.
Some Acupuncturists specialize in one or another style of Acupuncture, just as doctors might specialize in one or another sub-specialty. I consider myself a general practitioner, and my treatment style is a hybridized version of TCM and Five Element styles. Having access to both of these lineages means that I can customize your treatment in a much more focused way, and get you on the path to healing more effectively.
