About the Practitioner

I am a licensed acupuncturist by the State of New York and nationally board certified in both Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).  My training includes Chinese Herbology, Acupuncture, Chinese medical massage (Tui Na), Eastern nutritional counseling, Tai Chi, QiGong, and Reiki. Biomedical coursework includes Pharmacology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Clinical Diagnosis, and Gross Anatomy.  My practice emphasizes treating the individual client as a whole being, understanding that pain and illness reflect the overall state of physical and emotional health.
