Many Disciplines. One Patient.

In the spirit of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a primary goal of Essential Health Acupuncture is to provide our patients with a broader understanding of health and more lasting sense of well-being. Instead of a disease-centered focus, Traditional Chinese Medicine applies a patient-centered approach that addresses the whole person rather than simply his/her symptoms.

Essential Health Acupuncture combines the disciplines of modern science with the wisdom of ancient healing and takes advantage of the knowledge of several disciplines including, acupunture, tui na (Chinese body work), cupping therapy, diet/nutrition education, physical, mental and emotional health, and Chinese herbology. Other medical modalities that are being utilized are also taken into account to provide the utmost care for the individual. This allows patient and provider to work together to develop an integrated diagnostic and therapeutic plan that will best address the whole patient.

Enjoy Healing, again!

We offer a combination of wholistic healing techniques that restore health naturally.

Natural healthcare is essential if you wish to live a longer, higher quality of life. We are all living longer. And, I believe most people would prefer to live their entire life in good health. That's why I offer natural methods, such as acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicines, lifestyle and nutrition counseling, and meditation and relaxation resources, to heal and maintain health.

I specialize in helping one to find their path to health whether that be less pain, ability to make it through the next day, or to facilitate natural healing. I am an advocate for LGBTQ+ and wish to aid the community in many ways.

After working the past 20 years as an Occupational Therapist in a variety of healthcare settings from hospital based rehabilitation clinics to home care service, I became interested in approaching healing from a different perspective in order to help people become empowered about their health on all levels. I found acupuncture to resonate with my belief that medicine should be judged in terms of how effective it is in understanding and treating the problem as the patient experiences it.
