Prevention of disease and promotion of health are becoming more popular with general public as the cost of medicine and the rate of degenerative disease are going through the roof. More and more people move away from treating symptoms by means of toxic chemicals and move towards natural, powerful, health promoting modalities that not only treat symptom but also address the root of the problem. Acupuncture is at the forefront of this change in medicine. My goal and passion is to provide these safe alternatives to my patients, a lot of whom have not found answers in traditional medicine.

As an acupuncturist, my ultimate objective is to help the patients to feel the renewed sense of energy and obtain their maximum health potential. I focus on treating the root of pain, in other words, finding the cause of pain and prevent further aggravation. Acupuncture treatment is 45 minutes to an hour-long session, and areas of expertise mainly include pain management, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, sleep disorder, rheumatoid arthritis, sexual dysfunction, and infertility problems for both men and women.

Many of my patients have sports injuries, occupational conditions, auto related injuries, stress related disorders, mental and emotional issues and psychosomatic conditions. Their symptoms are acute inflammation, chronic pain and flare-ups of both. I treat carefully after referring specialists for acute severe cases. Then one of my goals is to get results as soon as possible and as much as possible. All of us expect faster and certain recovery with less treatment. If I'm not treating pain, my patients enjoy oriental medicine for the transformation of the body, mind and spirit, including karmic issues.
