If you feel out of balance within your body, or even in your life, then I would recommend acupuncture and oriental medicine. Some primary examples of imbalance include: suffering from aches and pains, feelings of youth slipping away, and daily waking up to a mental state of depression and anxiety. Everyone in any state of health, and age, can benefit from acupuncture. This medicine is holistic, and it understands the body and its relationship to nature. On a personal level, acupuncture can help you find who you are, treat illnesses, and help you stay healthy, naturally.

I have been in Chinese Medical Practice since 1986 after graduating from California Acupuncture College. I then enrolled in the Doctorate program at Samra Univ. of Oriental Medicine and received my credential in August 1988. I was licensed by the NCAA until 2007 and participated in their testing & licensing program. In 1996, I had the pleasure of being part of a group to study acupuncture in a hospital setting at the XiYuan Hospital of PRC and attend the 2nd International Symposium on Medical Qi Gong. The group was present for the opening ceremonies of the first government sponsored Medical Qi Gong Academy where we also underwent a rigorous course of training. In January 2006 I completed the Acupuncture Orthopedics course given by Lerner Education and received my credential to become a Diplomate of Acupuncture Orthopedics (NBAO).
