My current approach to practice blends Chinese and Japanese medical techniques. Some treatment sessions may include a little Shiatsu, a Japanese style of massage that addresses both internal and physical medicine. Acupuncture itself serves to regulate the system and herbal and dietary recommendations can be used to further regulate, nourish and support. This is a place where people are seen as a whole person. My approach of seeing people for who they are rather than a series of symptoms comes not only from direct Chinese medical training, but also from life experience and ongoing volunteer work.
