Chinese Medicine

  • I stumbled into Chinese medicine and herbs while living in Taiwan in the late 90s. It was amazing to me how regular citizens seemed to understand and consider the effects of their food, environment, and lifestyle. I later tried some of the herbal medicine and eventually acupuncture for myself and discovered them to be extremely effective.  

    After battling with intractable asthma, I was relieved to find that there were powerful and palatable treatments that enabled me to breathe easily.  

    In the years since, I have enjoyed learning about this ancient but relevant medicine. Working with others and teaching them how to care for themselves has been a true joy. 

    In 2012, I graduated from Daoist Traditions College in Asheville, NC with a four-year Master’s Degree (MAOM) in Classical Chinese Medicine, including herbs, essential oils, massage, food, lifestyle and exercise. I continue to be delighted at how Chinese medicine explains and supports conventional medical treatments even as it fills in the blanks. I enjoy working with children and teens as well as older folks on the many changes and challenges of life.  

    Life is happening now. Best to make the most of it.
