Jared proceeded to enroll in and graduate from the Institute of Taoist Education and Acupuncture (ITEA) in 2014, where he focused deeply in the study of Five-Element medicine, the theory, and how to apply it. Special projects included founding, organizing, and running auricular detoxification (ear acupuncture) clinics for the homeless shelter as well as veterans groups.

Through ITEA, Jared was introduced to the world of Zero Balancing, an amazing type of bone-centered massage, and continued with the Zero Balancing certification track. He now offers Five-Element Acupuncture, Zero Balancing, and also a growing line of medicinal mushroom and herbal products.

Jared practices Tai Chi, bonsori bamboo flute, is a Master Level Reiki practitioner, and has been practicing healing arts since 2003. When he's not in the clinic, you can usually find him wandering the local woods in search of beautiful places, native plants, and useful medicinal fungi.
