As a dedicated Chinese Medicine Practitioner, I have come to understand that the human body is a complex thing.

One of the underlying principles of Chinese Medicine is the recognition of patterns within complexity. Large amounts of complex information can be synthesized, and viewed with a sophisticated simplicity. A Chinese Medicine Practitioner can utilize the same methods of diagnosis, pattern differentiation method and treatment that Practitioners have been using for thousands of years, to treat that very same pattern often with profound results.

I graduated from a 4 year Acupuncture/Chinese Medicine program in 2005. 

My passion to delve deeper into the roots of Chinese Medicine led me to pursue post graduate studies in 2012 with the Institute of Classics of East Asian Medicine in Portland, Oregon (www.iceam.org); which is an worldwide institution dedicated to the study and clinical application of important Chinese Medical texts from the Han dynasty. I am in the final stages of becoming a diplomat of ICEAM and will be continuing on to obtain fellowship status from this institute. 



These Han Dynasty texts, (the Shang Han Lun and Jin Gui Yao Lue) are considered to be among the most important texts in Chinese Medicine history, influencing most of what has come after it. They are also practical clinical manuals which can be considered a system for treating nearly every possible health condition – and in spite of advances in Western Medicine – the fundamental reality is the human body has remained the same over the past few thousand years. The original author, Zhang Zhong Jing – is considered the grandfather of Chinese Herbal Medicine.

The core purpose for these studies is to gain a better understanding of the root principles of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, beyond the basics that are taught in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine schools and back to the roots of this powerful medicine.

In addition to acupuncture, I prescribe herbal medicine, and have a fully stocked herbal pharmacy on site to compound individualized herbal formulas for each patient when needed. I use high quality concentrated herbal granules, which are both potent and convenient to take.
