Welcome to HealthFocus Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine!

I know that choosing a healthcare practitioner is an important decision and I consider it a privilege for you to select my practice for your health care needs. Since 2005, I have trained in integrative care, nursing home, and traditional acupuncture clinic settings. I provide patient-centered and compassionate care in a safe, non-judgmental environment. After listening to your concerns - whether you are suffering from pain, digestive issues, stress, or just want to improve your overall wellbeing - we will work together to create a treatment plan especially for you.

In addition to acupuncture, I have extensive training in multiple treatment modalities: reflexology, moxibustion, scalp acupuncture, facial rejuvenation, cupping, Gua Sha, auricular needling, and electrical stimulation. My education also includes a thorough understanding of the formulation and preparation of Chinese Herbs with attention to herbal safety and herb-drug interactions.
