Holistic Integrative Medicine for Optimal Health
What Problem(s) Do You Solve?
The focus of my practice is to create a treatment plan with realistic and adequate resources to optimize the health of each unique patient. Many of my patients are referrals from MD’s, Psychiatric doctors, psychologists and LMFTs. My integrative practice encompasses the use of acupuncture, cupping, heat therapy, e-stem, nutrition, herbal prescriptions, nutraceuticals, and educated touch.
I offer effective treatments for the following pathologies:
- Anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, addiction, eating disorders, mental health and relational issues
- Auto-immune such as fibromyalgia, lupus, arthritis, chronic fatigue
- Hormonal: PMS, fertility, migraine, headaches, menopause
- Inflammatory: rheumatism, insomnia, gastric issues (constipation, IBS, diarrhea), chronic pain
- Tinnitus, low back pain, memory, concentration, tremors, dreams, urinary issues, libido, ED.
These ailments are expressions of deeper root causes that are embedded in the unique story of each patient. My work focuses on exploring the many parts and their symptoms in order to unwind what needs to breathe and find its own rhythm. The treatments that I provide are tailored to the uniqueness of each individual.
What Makes Your Business Unique?
I have a deep conviction that the body is born with intelligence, and by fine-tuning its expressions and biology, its physiology can be affected and defense mechanisms reset. I also believe that each individual has the unique ability to connect to wholeness.
In my practice, I use Holistic Integrative Medicine which helps me to hold sacred space and provides the tools necessary for me to develop unique treatments that lead to an optimal healing state of being. Additionally, I use traditional Chinese Medicine, which is a part of the Integrated Complementary and Alternative Medicine profession. There are many evidence-based clinical studies demonstrating the beneficial and positive outcomes of Acupuncture and Herbal treatments.
I strongly feel that we need to develop ways to relate to our bodies during different segments of our life. This allows us to grow according to our life experiences. There is no itinerary, just many maps to navigate which are unique to each individual. Ultimately though, I think that we all thrive for self-love, self-worth, health, and wellness.
I am an experienced teacher in Somatic Psychology, nutrition, meditation, and modalities of the healing arts. And once a month, I host a wisdom circle in my community.
