What I do
I practice Classical Five-Element Acupuncture, as taught by the late J. R. Worsley and his successor, Judy Becker Worsley. Rather than treating symptoms, Classical Five-Element Acupuncture addresses the cause of an illness. In addition to helping physically, it helps you feel peaceful, free, confident, and able to become well again no matter what is the trouble, from simply feeling out of balance to serious physical and emotional conditions.
In addition to acupuncture, I also use moxibustion (heating of acupuncture points by burning the Artemesia Vulgaris Latiflora herb) as well as cupping (a traditional method of using cups to create suction on the skin for therapeutic purposes).
About Classical Five-Element Acupuncture
Human beings are incredibly resilient. By promoting an abundant flow of vital energy throughout your whole system, Classical Five-Element Acupuncture empowers your innate ability to heal and feel your best physically, mentally, and emotionally. It is among the most effective ways to achieve complete balance and health.
Promoting wellness from within rather than palliating symptoms has enabled countless patients to feel truly healthy, often overcoming disease that other types of care might help but could not heal. My patients commonly feel better than they have in years. Many are able to reduce or eliminate the need for medications.
Based upon natural laws which govern how our whole system functions, Classical Five-Element Acupuncture has proven itself safe and effective for thousands of years.
