"As a traditional naturopath and acupuncturist my practice is multifold. I work with patients from an individualized perspective, and in addition to acupuncture, utilize nutrition, lifestyle and herbal approaches. There is a strong focus on educating the patient in self-help methods. Patients are encouraged to ask questions and take an active role in their therapy program. I like to give my patients the "fishing pole" and not just the fish! My practice is not an acupuncture factory. I spend at least 45 minutes to over an hour with each patient and take the time to listen, really listen.

As someone with chronic pain who has been on both sides of the table, I have a unique viewpoint on what patients need. I believe that both western medicine and acupuncture have their place in society; neither is "better" than the other. Instead, they work best when used together as part of an overall health plan. My goal is to make acupuncture an easy, sensible part of my patient's lives. I work hard to tailor treatments to each individual so that all of my patients are comfortable with their level of therapy.

I provide safe, gentle, and effective relief to a wide range of health concerns, with particular emphasis on the treatment of painful conditions, chronic conditions, stress relief and vitality.

Chronic conditions such as allergies, asthma, fibromyalgia, insomnia, digestive issues, migraines and macular degeneration can often be relieved. My treatments are very effective for calming the nervous system, reducing stress, relief from anxiety and promoting whole body wellness.

My goal of acupuncture practice is to help patients recover health and normal functionality as soon as possible with natural way. I think health doesn't just mean lack of disease, but state of well-being. I treat my patients with sympathy and passion. I research and study for the best and most efficient way to treat conditions of my patients. I have offices in Nashville, Clarksville, and Bowling Green, KY.
