Licensed Acupuncturist | Sports Medicine Acupuncture Specialist | Board Certified in East Asian Herbal Medicine
East Asian Medicine is the longest enduring, continuously evolving, literate medicine in human history. Its methods of treatment, including acupuncture and botanical (herbal) medicine as well as auxiliary methods such as tui na, moxibustion, gua sha, eastern nutrition, and cupping, have been refined over thousands of years and applied to the successful healing of – quite literally – billions of patients. East Asian Medicine is perhaps the most tested form of medicine practiced around the world today.
