I am dedicated to helping you find practical solutions to your health challenges!
I practice Classical Chinese Medicine, which is a full system of medicine that has been shared,
documented and refined for nearly 5000 years.
Experiencing this medicine has been a completely life-changing experience and I am dedicated to sharing my knowledge, time and experience with you, so you can experience these benefits.
I am a graduate of Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts in Asheville, NC. I am blessed to have been educated by many amazing and experienced practitioners such as acupuncturists, herbalists, chiropractors, medical doctors, psychologists,
counselors and professional researchers.
I entered the world of medicine on the ground level. Since age 19, I've been an Emergency Medical Technician for the US Navy and Charleston County EMS, a Battlefield Medic with the US Marines, and an Intensive Care Nurse, where I helped stabilize patients after open heart surgery and heart transplantations. I have firsthand experience seeing both the strenghts and weaknesses inherent in modern and ancient medicines.
All of my experiences in medicine have led me to develop a deep conviction and confidence in the ancient Chinese Medicine perspective. It is safe, effective, non-toxic and honors the body's ability to heal with the right kind of assistance. I have witnessed many conditions that treated that were otherwise relegated to only being manageable, rather that treatable. When I inform a patient that their patterns and conditions are treatable by natural and non-pharmacological means, I am confident in that assessment. The amount of work and time needed varies between each person and condition. If a patient needs to see a specialist or another type of practitioner, I am ready to help make that happen as well.

My experiences on ambulances, battlefield medicine and open heart surgery recovery inform my approach to each case.
I learned so much while working with Medical Doctors for decades in Emergency Care and Critical Care. We treated the most complex patients in the community as a team. Because of this, I can offer you an honest take on your medical options from both Eastern and Western Medicine perspectives.
My promise is to present an honest review of your treatment options so you can make informed decisions on your care-plan. Eastern Medicine can play the lead role or supporting role in your care plan.
As Acupuncturists in the modern era, we are routinely replicating treatments from eras like 650 AD, while offering successful herbal formulas from 1100 AD to meet the challenges of modern life. We incorporate Modern understandings of medicine, while also holding true to visions of health and healing that have no modern equivalent. What a powerful way to honor our human ancestors, to continue their work into the future.
Humans are built to adapt and the medicine has adapted to every era in our history. The recent adoption of Eastern Medicine techniques by modern medicine is a testimony to its power and effectiveness. From needling, cupping, herbal therapies and mindfulness, to the classical understanding of Epigenetics, eastern techniques and theories are becoming mainstream.
We are trained in root-pattern recognition and diagnosis. Our goal is to treat multiple issues at once by getting to their common root, saving you time and money in the long run.
Treating Body, Mind and Spirit is key to producing lasting changes.

Services
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese Herbal Medicine may be used as a
stand-alone treatment for some clients or as an adjunctive and supportive component to those receiving acupuncture treatments as well. Your practitioner will discuss your plan of care and estimated amount of time you may need to be taking a particular formula. Formulas are often changed to stay up to date with the client's evolving patterns. This is a dynamic and powerful piece of your treatment which carries a low incidence of side effects when prescribed by a licensed herbalist.
Chinese Medicine practitioners are trained to utilize specific massage techniques to amplify your treatment and may teach you some techniques as well to practice at home for your particular condition.
Cupping & Gua Sha
Acupuncture
During a routine visit, a pattern of disharmony
will be diagnosed by the practitioner utilizing pulse and tongue examination, chief
complaints, a review of medical history,
medications and lifestyle.
A treatment will be given, dietary and lifestyle suggestions will be offered, herbal medicine may be suggested and a plan of care will be discussed with you. During follow up visits, your treatment and plan of care will be adjusted to meet your current presentation.

Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese Herbal Medicine is used as a
stand-alone treatment for some clients and as an adjunctive or supportive component for others.
This is a dynamic and powerful tool with thousands of years of use, refinement and documentation. Formulas and their doses are changed often as patterns and symptoms change.
The use of single herbs is a modern take on herbalism, whereas classical herbalism is a science of herb combining to bring about stronger healing responses than the herbs could generate on their own.
Herbal medicine is the highly refined grandchild of Dietary Therapies. One example is ginger, as it helps reduce nausea on it's own, it is often added to formulas to increase absorption of herbs which are known to be more difficult to digest.
Dietary Counseling
Chinese Medicine has a rich history of employing food as medicine to increase
longevity. Once your practitioner has
diagnosed your underlying patterns of
disharmony, advice will be offered promoting or disuading particular cooking styles,ingredients or eating habits.
Tui-Na Massage
Chinese Medicine practitioners are trained to add specific massage techniques known as Tui-Na to amplify your treatment and may teach you some techniques to practice at home to help your particular patterns or conditions.
Pediatric Treatments
Cupping & Gua Sha
Ages 0-14, Children and Adolescents are typically more resilient than adults and require less intervention in order to improve their health.
Dietary and Lifestyle recommendations go very far in this age group.Children with colds, sore throats, fevers, cholic, anxiety, digestive complaints, restlessness, insomnia, tremors can all find long-term benefits with Chinese Medicine. Particular massage techniques can also be used and taught to parents in order to give treatments at home.
Some of the many adjunct techniques taught to Chinese Medicine practitioners, these tools are used along-side our other skills in order to compliment our treatments and improve
outcomes.
Both Gua Sha and Cupping increase blood flow into blocked and stagnant tissues, allowing the body to begin repair work and flush out toxins and metabolic wastes. The result being that soft tissue becomes more elastic and pliable.
StemWave
StemWave is a particular brand of a technology known as shockwave therapies. This groundbreaking, non-invasive therapy is used to treat difficult inflamatory pain conditions.
A directed sound wave is sent through diseased tissues such as tendons and bone to stimulate a healing response from the body. Conditions being succesfully treated in the clinic include arthritic hands, feet, inflammation in ankles, knees, hips and shoulders.
Used in conjunction with other therapies in our clinic, this has been a great addition for difficult inflamatory conditions.
Tuning Fork Therapy
We come from light and sound and return to light and sound again one day. As frequencies move through our bodies, our cells light up in respnse and our nervous system calms down into parasympathetic mode.
The tuning forks are rung out and the base of the handle is placed on acupuncture points to transmit the frequencies through the meridians, fascia and organs.
We often employ tuning forks in cases where anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD are part of the client's presentation.
The methods employed are influenced by the Tama-Do system.
