Inner Harmony Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine is dedicated to helping you live a healthy and happy life. I believe that everyone can and should be pain free, energetic, and joyous throughout his or her whole life. I strive to make this happen through gentle, compassionate care. My offices are beautiful and peaceful, and give my patients a sense of restoration and rejuvenation.
First I treat any pain, because if you have pain then you cannot have a good quality of life. This includes headaches, sciatica, neck and shoulder pain, low back pain, even internal pain. Then I also treat stress. In our busy world we are all surrounded by stressful situations that can cause many health problems. But stress is always a two edged sword-stress is what the world throws at you but it is also how you respond to the world.
Acupuncture can help you respond in more healthy ways. Next I work to treat chronic illnesses. Many of my patients have reduced their blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels while under my care.

Acupuncture is the practice of inserting very thin needles into certain points on the body to help a patient feel better.
For pain, we usually insert needles right into the area of the pain, in order to bring new blood to the area and speed up the healing process.
For problems that don't involve pain, such as nausea, sleeplessness, anxiety, or many other conditions, needles are inserted into points on the body that have been found, over thousands of years of practice, to help the body heal itself in various ways.

Herbal Medicine is my first passion, with acupuncture being a huge addition from my Oriental Medicine studies.
Herbal medicine is based on the incredible ability of the plants, minerals, and sometimes even animal substances to make us feel better, and to even treat some of our diseases.
In Chinese Herbal Medicine, we carefully prescribe herbal formulas to nourish, correct, or boost up the specific problems that you may be having.
Herbal medicine is like food because it nourishes your body, but it's the exact right food that your body has been craving to alleviate some problem or to make you feel truly and completely healthy.

If you come in with a sore shoulder or low back pain, I will often do a five to ten minutes tui na massage to "open the back" before applying acupuncture.
One hour tui na massages are also available.
The basic difference between tui na and other massage techniques is that in a tui na session the practitioner is working with the Qi (pronouced Chi - meaning the life source flowing through your body) and Blood of the body.
This means that the emphasis is on promoting circulation of the whole body.

I tore my rotator cuff rollerblading.
After weeks of not being able to sleep my wife pushed me to get an MRI.
Immediately after, I was at the orthopedic surgeons office and without even looking at the MRI he said.
You need surgery.
Let's schedule it for two weeks from now.
Being a musician and a golfer, I could not imagine loosing 4-6 months of my summer not to mention the thought that it could take 6-12 months to rehab with no certainty of getting any better.
I was resolved to going under the knife until a friend said that he had tremendous success with acupuncture and highly recommended Mavis.
