Pinellas Park, FL 33781
After immigrating to the United States, I obtained my Masters of Science in Oriental Medicine in 2019.
I developed my own style of blending the best that Homeopathy, Acupuncture and Western Medicine has to offer during my 15 years of practice in South Africa. I treat a variety of ailments, but my passion and focus is on women’s health and fertility. In addition, at my Acupuncture & Homeopathy Clinic, I treat chronic pain like migraines, neck, back, shoulder and knee pain. Too many times people have been led to believe that they should live with their pain; however I believe that there is always hope and another effective treatment available. I intend to use my experience and training to continue providing excellent personalized care.

Master Acupuncturist with over 30 years' experience and extensive training in China, treating over 60 patients a day for an extensive variety of health problems. Acupuncture is great preventative medicine that can help keep you from developing serious health problems in the future! Micro and nano needling are excellent painless options to address scaring, wrinkles, blemishes and other imperfections in facial skin without removing the top layer of skin, as is done in microderm abrasion. Many health professionals of the Western Medical persuasion call it a placebo, even after over 3000 years of helping millions.
