Chronic Conditions

Acupuncture has been used for over 3,000 thousand years to address many chronic conditions. It can provide help even when conventional western medicine cannot.

Personally, I have witnessed the struggles of family and friends with a variety of autoimmune conditions as well as managing the side effects of cancer treatments. Helping people through these times called me to pursue this type of healing work and is the reason my days feel complete and fulfilling.

Acupuncture is not a cure – it is a way to help manage many of the symptoms of illnesses and improve quality of life.
