​
My father is a physician which led me down the path of working towards the profession of healing. After playing tennis, volleyball, and golf competitively for many years, it took a toll on my shoulders where eventually I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my dominant shoulder.
After years of rest, physical therapy, and medication, I sought alternative care in chiropractic and acupuncture care. To my surprise, acupuncture was the only treatment that alleviated any pain to allow me to return to my active life of sports by reducing my recovery time and also overall pain level.
My fascination with acupuncture and the success of my treatments made me want to learn more. After four years of school, over 1500 clinical hours, and three board exams, I became a licensed acupuncturist. I was trained in the style of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine. During my acupuncture training, I worked with many different ailments including patients with cancer, patients with autoimmune diseases, patients with psychological ailments, patients with musculoskeletal ailments, and much more. Being able to immediately improve the quality of life for my patients with non-invasive treatment is why I love this kind of work.
