Your body has an innate intelligence to heal and balance itself.  However when factors such as stress, diet, illness and other pathogenic factors affect the balance sometimes it needs help restoring that balance.  Acupuncture and herbal therapy are powerful tools used to redirect, disperse and nourish body, mind and spirit.  It addresses the symptoms of disease as well as the root cause.   I treat adults, children and teens. 

​

I am passionate about helping my clients become more empowered in their journey to health!

 

My office is located in Winter Springs, Florida, central to East Orlando, Casselberry, Oviedo, Lake Mary, and Sanford.  Treatments include acupuncture, traditional fire cupping, Chinese Herbal Formulas, diet counseling, E-Stim (gentle electric stimulation of acupuncture points), and Moxibustion. I also utilize Bio-Magnetic pair Therapy (by Dr. Isaac Goiz), Emotion Code (for releasing emotional patterns) and Reiki.
