Clear and individualized treatment plan maps out what you need to do to take care of yourself and your health. Systemically oriented treatments that address root causes and support transformational change. Acupuncture techniques that are very gentle (some of Johanna's patients have been unable to tolerate acupuncture till working with her). Integrity - Johanna always considers and recommends what is best for her clients, and she lives her principles.
The art of Chinese medicine is best learned from clinical, hands on life experience, thus Johanna chose an apprenticeship based training. She studied with Michael McCulloch LAc MPH PHD, whose very intelligent and also very kind way of practicing Chinese medicine has been a tremendous inspiration and influence for Johanna. As Michael specializes in oncology, Johanna naturally gathered experience in that field.
Her study was within the Pine Street Clinic in San Anselmo CA, one of the few clinics that offers classical Chinese medicine training.

The essence of health through Chinese medicine is in how we live.
Our lives are all so very unique.
