Reduce Stress and Tension, Heal Injuries, Relieve Pain, Improve Reproductive Health

East Asian or Chinese Medicine has been practiced for thousands of years. Acupuncture is an essential part of this health care system, and is the most commonly recommended alternative medicine used today. My approach combines acupuncture with electroacupuncture (micro-current attached to specific needles), gua sha, cupping, moxibustion, herbal medicine, lab testing, nutrition, and a genuine desire to help you achieve your goals.

How Many Sessions Do I Need?

Acupuncture is a systemic treatment that improves the patterns and imbalances in our body, mind, and emotions.To create deep and lasting change, it is done in a series of treatments. For problems you have had for years, or for injuries that need time to heal, a series of 8-16 treatments may be recommended.At the end of the series we will re-evaluate your progress and recommend a less frequent plan to sustain your health and well-being. Acupuncture may also be used to address acute needs, such as colds, UTI's, flus, arthritis flare-ups, encouraging labor, allergic reactions, migraines, injuries, nausea in pregnancy, or to support you during stressful chapters of your life.Many long term clients come in once a month or once per season for tune-ups. During our sessions you will have the opportunity to discuss your current concerns, to ask questions, and to receive a deeply relaxing and balancing acupuncture treatment.

What To Expect

Our first visit will be 90 minutes, and follow up visits are 50-60 minutes.When you schedule your first apppointment, you will fill out my online health questionnaire.I'll use that to guide us through our first and subsequent meetings.You will have acupuncture with each session, along with optional cupping or gua sha, moxa or Estim.I have also just begun offering cupping in one hour sessions for those who don't want needles!

What Is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine testing is used to get data about a person's weaknesses and strengths.This can be done with blood test collection, or home test kits that assess hormones, adrenals, the gut, neurotransmitters and the brain, and toxins. I use DUTCH complete testing, the GIMAP test, and Organic Acids Nutritional testing among others.For blood draws I send clients to Labcorps locations nearest to them.I schedule lab testing as needed independently from acupuncture sessions.Typically a functional medicine initial consult is one hour and follow ups are 30 minutes.
