About Me

In September of 2020, I enrolled in the Chinese Herbal Medicine program at the Won Institute of Graduate Studies.  Chinese herbs are a powerful addition to acupuncture treatment. Together herbs and acupuncture address a variety of conditions like insomnia, PTSD, neuropathy, migraines, digestive issues, painful menses, infertility, and much more. I have seen Chinese herbs successfully treat conditions that Western pharmaceuticals could not. However,  Western medicine offers diagnostic tools and treatment strategies that do no exist in Chinese medicine. Ideally, Chinese medicine practitioners and physicians would work together, to see that patients get the very best care.

Since 1992, I have studied treatment strategies for eliminating pain. During the thirty years that I worked as a massage therapist, I learned several different modalities for treating soft tissue injury, like neuromuscular therapy and myofascial release. In 2017, I completed a Masters of Acupuncture at the Finger Lakes School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.  I now use a combination of acupuncture and manual therapies to rehabilitate pain and injury. 

I look forward to designing a treatment plan that will address your specific health needs.
