“Oliver's journey into healing arts began in 1982. As a practitioner of acupuncture and Oriental medicine who specializes in Traumatology (Ditda-Shangke), he received extensive apprenticeship training in the States, Hong Kong, and Beijing under several reputable first-generation physicians, esoteric healers of Eastern medicine, and venerable masters of traditional martial arts since childhood. Oliver also served as a clinical intern and mentored at various facilities including American Institute of Acupuncture Orthopedics & Traumatology, California Pacific Medical Center, and Yueyang Hospital of Integrative Medicine in Shanghai, China

On September 12th, 2005, Oliver was one of the original Common Ground Collective 'street-medics' and first acupuncturist to aid trauma survivors who suffered the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. He holds a clinical doctorate in Oriental medicine as well as a post-graduate concentration in TCM Orthopedics.

Oliver is part of a citywide community wellness program where Taiji Quan and Qi Gong classes are offered. As a practicing Daoist and direct lineage holder of the Pre-celestial Limitless Way, Oliver feels the key to REAL health is finding the TRUEST path to live our lives.”
