My goal is to help you be your healthiest, most vital self and create the life and family you've always wanted. I do that with acupuncture, herbal medicine, yoga, nutrition, lifestyle changes and compassion - interventions that have been extensively researched for fertility and health. Chinese medicine is a complete and very powerful medical system that puts you - as a person, not just a patient - at the center.
It has a long history of treating infertility and women's health and my approach today builds on those centuries of knowledge and experience while incorporating modern technology and science. We're not fixing a symptom or developing a work-around; we're addressing the root cause of the issue, which improves your overall health and ability to conceive.
In Chinese medical texts the reproductive organs are often referred to as the "palace." We "prepare the palace" for conception by strengthening the body, moving blockages and sluggishness, clearing excess, warming the womb and harmonizing.

New patient appointments are $135 and return visits are $75, which does not include any herbs I may suggest.
During a new patient visit, which can take up to two hours, I'll do a complete health history with highly detailed questions about your menstrual cycle and latest blood/urine tests before inserting the needles.
Most patients will also leave with an herbal formula (this is an extra charge) that will change every week or two.
If you're coming for an injury, I will also conduct a physical exam, based on your complaints, and provide take-home exercises and lifestyle recommendations as needed.

Thousands of years ago, the Chinese developed a system of using tiny needles to stimulate certain points on the body to correct imbalances and improve circulation (the needles weren't so tiny back then but they are super-fine now).
It's a very elegant and thoughtful form of medicine that has persevered through the centuries because it considers the entire body and mind-and even the natural environment-in treating a problem.
In Chinese medicine, we don't just treat symptoms, we address the source of the issue.

At least 10 percent of women in the U.S. will have a hard time getting and staying pregnant, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Some sources indicate infertility is greatly under reported and as many as a quarter of women may face problems trying to conceive (TTC).
But the stats don't really matter when it's you who's having difficulty getting pregnant, do they?
A 2015 research review from Australia (40 randomized, controlled trials with more than 4,000 women) found that using Chinese herbal medicine doubled pregnancy rates within a three- to six-month period compared with Western fertility drug protocols.
