"My passion is combining both of these disciplines in order to fully understand your health condition and treat effectively. My goal at 518 Acupuncture is to provide you with compassionate care and positive results."

I help active adults, like you, solve chronic health issues and improve quality of life through acupuncture, manual therapies, herbs, and corrective exercise. I have natural solutions for your health concerns. I work with you to transform your posture, breathing, movement, and the health of your tissues so that you can enjoy the pain-free, energetic, engaged life you crave.

While I see a vast array of conditions, I specialize in treating pelvic floor conditions such as incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, diastasis recti, prostatitis, and erectile dysfunction. You deserve a quality of life that is solid, dependable. Live every day without fear. No more holding back while playing with your grandchildren. No more planning activities around access to bathrooms.

I combine physical medicine, acupuncture , osteopathic manual techniques (cranio-sacral therapy, visceral manipulation, myofascial therapy, Chi Nei Tsang abdominal massage), and Traditional Chinese Medical herbal formulas or supplements in each session in order to give you the most thorough, well-rounded treatment, individually tailored to your constitution, body type, and health concerns.

It’s time to get your groove on—because your quality of life matters.

I have been in practice for over 16 years. I am currently practicing in Saguaro Clinic and specialize in pain relief, working with Veterans on a variety of emotional and physical health issues, elder care, cancer treatment support and fertility support. I have 40 years of experience in herbal and nutritional supplement use, including extensive training in Chinese Herbs and Homeopathic remedies.

I combine a variety of acupuncture techniques with nutritional and lifestyle counseling to support your journey to health. I use a stress reduction tool called the BioscanSRT and a cold laser for a needle-free acupuncture experience.

I also use the Bioscan MSA device, a computerized analysis measuring frequencies from acupuncture meridians on the body. A flat probe is used on the fingers and toes to obtain these readings. Since the acupuncture meridians have pathways to organs alongside the nervous system, we can use this method to reach our goal: a balanced system that responds appropriately to stress and increased health.

A reading of 50 indicates that the organ/meridan is balanced. Readings above or below 50 indicate that a chronic or inflammatory process going on with the organ/meridian. Acupuncture, whole food nutrition, homeopathics, and herbal remedies are used to bring the body into balance once again. This is a comprehensive program for health which requires a commitment to making certain lifestyle changes and regular treatment.

I enjoy what I do and hope you will join us at Saguaro Clinic for support in your continuing journey toward perfect health.
