Welcome to my practice! I invite you to explore the benefits of acupuncture in my cozy clinic. We work with your insurance (out of network) and we work with in partnership with you to meet your health goals. I’ve worked using a patient-centered, heartful approach to acupuncture for over 20 years. My style is evidence-based and intuitive, scientific and somatic.
I earned my Master's in TCM at San Francisco’s own American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM) in 2004. My early years of practice included working in community clinics, IVF-adjacent fertility clinics, ear acupuncture clinics, and in retail herb shops. I assisted in researching and authoring Dr. Lifang Liang’s textbook on TCM Gynecology.
In 2008, my practice moved to Alameda. This office location opened in January 2025. I’m dedicated to providing a safe space for all to receive care, by creating clean air, and a guarantee that I work in an N95. I love working with complex cases and will take all your symptoms seriously! I have lived experience managing my own sensitive body (multiple chemical sensitivity and MCAS) and I can use a technique that works for your body.
Healing is a process. Some things recover function and bounce back quickly, while other things may take weeks or months. We are here to guide your expectations along the way and support you in making informed choices.
My needle technique is gentle. We invite you to leave any stress behind, let go, loosen up and sink in to the table. Get heavy, get floaty, release and reset. Smooth out life’s edges through deep relaxation.
We want to help you feel more freedom from pain, more access to energy to lead a fulfilling life, more capacity to get through the hard days and restful satisfying sleep at night. All bodies are welcome here, kids teens and adults, come as you are. Looking forward to serving you!
