Using ancient medicine with modern wisdom, I strive to help my patients achieve their health goals. My ultimate goal is to prevent diseases and illness from arising. Through detailed discussion about ones health history, I gain a clearer understanding into how an individuals body works and create a treatment plan specifically for them.

Conditions I treat: Pain, headaches, gynecological health, sleep disorders, eye diseases, digestive disorders, common cold, flu, MVA recovery, cardiovascular disease, just to name a few.

The Acupuncture Center of La Jolla has been serving Southern California since 1989.

Throughout the years, we have worked as a part of the community to provide complementary methods of healing that best serve our patients. We coined the phrase, "Chinese Medicine for an American Lifestyle" back in 1989 to establish our desire to bring this most ancient form of healing into the modern world.
