I practice traditional acupuncture, tuina, and naturopathic medicine, and teach tai chi & Qi gong.

At Acupuncture Pain and Stress Center, my goal is to give you effective perceivable results. I will employ different acupuncture and bodywork techniques depending on the health issues you face. Acupuncture treatments range from a spa-like soothing experience to something comparable to a tissue massage. I will choose the techniques I employ based on your illness or injury and your mindset. The whole goal is to provide lasting relief you can feel.
