MY SERVICES
Ninety-minute sessions that start with me getting to know your entire health history. I treat the pattern behind your symptoms, not just the symptom you booked for.
Acupuncture
Initial: $250 | Follow-up: $150
For the tension you’ve been holding onto since before you can remember. The circular marks aren't bruises and they don't hurt, they're a map of where your circulation has been restricted. Usually added onto an acupuncture session.
Cupping
$65
Custom formulas built to treat your pattern, not your diagnosis. Two people with the same Western diagnosis could walk out with completely different herb prescriptions. Consultations are available in person and virtually.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Initial: $150 | Follow-up: $80
Gua Sha
Not the viral facial tool. Clinical gua sha is the real technique, used in TCM for centuries to work through stuck tissue, chronic pain, and stiffness. A little redness afterward means it's working.
$90
These are the areas where I see the most patients and where I've spent the most time refining how I treat, but if you don't see your exact concern listed, don’t worry about it. TCM rarely treats things in isolation, and most of what I do involves treating more than one concern at once.
MY SPECIALTIES
-
Most of my pain patients come to me after physical therapy, imaging, and prescriptions didn't do enough. Acupuncture works by calming the nervous system, reducing inflammation, and increasing circulation to the area that's asking for help.
Pain is where acupuncture has the most research behind it, by a long shot. A JAMA Internal Medicine analysis of over 20,000 patients found it beat both sham treatment and standard care, and the relief was still holding a year later.
-
Autoimmune conditions almost always involve a body stuck in overdrive, and my job is to help yours come down from fight mode. I work alongside your rheumatologist or functional medicine doctor to reduce flare frequency and support the systems your medication isn't touching.
Research shows that acupuncture lowers the inflammatory markers that drive autoimmune flares (like TNF-α and IL-6) and activates the vagal-adrenal pathway, which is the one your body uses to quiet inflammation on its own.
-
Irregular cycles, painful periods, fertility support, pregnancy, and postpartum recovery. I studied under a fertility specialist in Connecticut for years, and I treat this area with the attention it deserves.
Research shows that acupuncture affects the hormones that drive your cycle and improves blood flow to the uterus. The evidence is strongest for painful periods, menopause symptoms, and IVF support, especially for women whose previous cycles haven't worked.
-
I treat anxiety, grief, burnout, and trauma your body is still holding onto. In TCM, emotions live in the organ systems, which is why acupuncture can reach them in a way that talking sometimes can't.
Acupuncture affects the same stress hormones and neurotransmitters that Western medicine targets for anxiety and PTSD and is used in VA hospitals for trauma protocols.
-
If you're waking up at 3am and can't get back to sleep, TCM has something specific to say about that. Different wake-up times point to different patterns, and insomnia almost never travels alone, so I treat the whole picture, not just the sleep.
Research shows acupuncture raises GABA and melatonin while lowering cortisol, with sleep-quality improvements comparable to prescription sleep medication in head-to-head trials.
-
Chronic sinus issues, seasonal allergies, lingering coughs, and asthma that flares with weather or stress. In TCM, the lungs sit at the intersection of immunity and the nervous system, so I treat the acute symptoms and the underlying pattern at the same time.
Research shows that acupuncture reduces the inflammatory chemicals that drive allergic reactions, with symptom improvement that holds for up to three months after treatment ends.
-
Bloating, reflux, IBS, and the kind of stomach issues that get labeled "functional" because nothing shows up on tests. If your digestion is off, your sleep, mood, and cycle usually are too, and I treat the whole picture.
Research shows acupuncture works on the same brain-gut axis that Western gastroenterology is now studying, regulating gut motility, visceral sensitivity, and the stress response that makes symptoms worse.
