As a child, I lived in Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Egypt, and Canada. I took for granted that knowledge and wisdom are found everywhere, in all shapes and forms. My mom, Carolyn, is an RN, and there were always medical books around the house. I was fascinated by the pictures and absorbed everything I could while I was learning to read.
I earned a Bachelor of Science in psychology from Oklahoma State University and I am member of Psi Chi, the International Honor Society in Psychology. While in college, I worked as a CNA in a nursing home for the eldery, as well as providing home health care for the disabled. After graduation, I served in the Peace Corps in Nepal, teaching science in middle school and training Nepali educators how to teach science.

What Can I Do For You
Report
I just help nudge things along with thin needles, herbal medicine, my hands, and a little dietary/lifestyle advice, if needed. There is very little it can't do! The World Health Organization acknowledges that acupuncture has been proven to treat hundreds of conditions, from infertility to osteoarthritis.
Your First Visit
Report
Or you may arrive early, and we will provide them for you. If possible, please bring copies of previous medical records and present medications you are taking. This first form is a general health history intake. Oriental medicine is holistic. Often, seemingly irrelevant things have strong connections in oriental medicine, such as constipation together with dry skin!
The Medicine
Report
Acupuncture is a form of medicine which dates back thousands of years, but is still evolving till this very day. The capacity for your body/mind heal itself is greater than anyone has ever told you. Tiny acupuncture needles, placed gently in very precise spots on your body, simply signal the body to heal itself to its own utmost ability.
Fertility & Women’s Health
Report
On the spectrum of where oriental medicine shines, OBGYN and fertility is on the awesome end. Irregular periods, painful periods, PMS, cramping, and infertility respond very well to acupuncture, often alone, and sometimes better with herbal medicine. It is a cruel, unfounded myth that women need to suffer through their monthly cycle, pregnancy, and childbirth.
Dry Needling
Report
Dry needling, also known as myofascial trigger point dry needling, is a rudimentary form of acupuncture therapy for limited range of motion, muscle pain, including pain related to myofascial pain syndrome. Dry needling is sometimes also known as Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS), or Tendinomuscular Acupuncture.
