Treatments tailored to youWe take the necessary time to get to know you on a much deeper level than a typical healthcare practitioner.
The Initial Acupuncture appointment is 90 minutes. We will spend time thoroughly going over your health history, current experience with symptoms, lifestyle habits, and many other aspects of your life. This is followed by a short physical exam and the initial acupuncture treatment, which consists of Acupuncture as well as Zero Balancing and possibly moxa (the burning of a medicinal herb on acupuncture points) as time allows. Follow up appointments are 45 minutes - 1 hour. We begin each session with a brief intake to get a sense of where you need support on that day, followed by a treatment that is tailored to what you need in the moment. During these sessions, we are there and present with you the whole time. This is different from many people's prior experience where needles are set and the practitioner leaves the room for 15-30 minutes. This one-on-one approach allows me to develop the treatment in an unfolding way, moment by moment - tailored for you. |

Why I Practice Classical Five-Element Acupuncture
Treat the Cause, Not the SymptomAs J. R. Worsley - one of the first to bring acupuncture to the Western world - said, "If your check engine light comes on in your car, putting a Band-Aid over the light will not fix the problem."
Most people would agree. This is why I practice Classical Five-Element Acupuncture - it goes to the root, helping to identify and treat the cause of the symptoms. This is a unique, amazing, and subtle process - one in which many symptoms other than a person's main complaint can be healed. |

Zero Balancing:
Holistic Touch Therapy Access Deeper Levels of RelaxationZero Balancing (also called ZB) is a powerful mind-body therapy that uses light pressure on the bones and joints to help re-balance the structures and energies of our body.
Zero Balancing can be a stand-alone treatment or a part of acupuncture sessions. It is a great option if you are afraid of, or less interested in, needles. Past Zero Balancing clients of mine have come in with debilitating pain - sciatica that felt like fire running down their leg, inability to lift their arm due to their upper back hurting so badly, or in difficult mental or emotional states. With this gentle treatment, we can help to relax, alleviate, and often eliminate pain while helping the whole body, mind, and spirit to feel better and more balanced. |
