Love note from your wellness provider
My life’s work is dedicated to making a meaningful difference. One way I achieve this is by sharing the incredible healing benefits of holistic treatments, such as acupuncture and herbal medicine.
When I turned 20, I was diagnosed with Mesial Temporal Sclerosis with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy—a rare condition causing scarring on my brain. Despite countless doctor visits, tests, and ineffective treatments, my neurologist told me I would never overcome this illness and that my seizures would lead to irreversible brain damage. For three years, I struggled with this diagnosis, feeling hopeless, but I couldn’t shake the belief that there had to be another way.
My healing journey began with a leap of faith: I reached out to everyone I knew and asked for help. The response was incredible—people genuinely wanted to support my healing. I received 87 suggestions from friends and family, and after trying each one, I discovered that acupuncture and Eastern medicine made a profound difference. After more than a decade of determination, consistent treatments, and lifestyle changes, I’m deeply grateful to have exceeded my prognosis and achieved what once seemed impossible.
Through this journey, I’ve fallen in love with holistic medicine. The belief that our bodies can heal themselves is truly inspiring. It’s an honor to serve others by creating a healing environment, and I’m so grateful to be part of your journey toward better health.
I feel privileged to work closely with parents, providing postpartum care for them and their babies, optimizing physiological performance for athletes and those who train, and offering cosmetic acupuncture for a radiant appearance. I am especially passionate about helping people regulate their nervous system to achieve and maintain a sense of peace.
It brings me great honor and joy to create a healing environment and be part of your path to better health. I can’t wait to take care of you!
