My Mission

My mission is to put the care back in healthcare. This philosophy guides both my approach to health care in general and my approach to my acupuncture practice in particular. What I have offer you:

• no hidden fees: no extra charge for additional treatments like herbal medicine, tui na (Chinese medical massage), zhi ya (acupressure), ba guan (fire cupping), gua sha (massage with jade and horn tools), topical oils and patches for pain, and 5 element nutrition.
• privacy: one-on-one sessions allow access to all points, privacy for disrobing, and space for deeper rest and relaxation
• available: I work five days per week, 9:30 to 6:00, offer online booking 24/7, and reserve a few spots offline every week for last minute appointments
• Holistic: a natural way to reduce pain, balance emotions, replenish energy reserves, and stimulate healing
• effective: 11 "Best of Western North Carolina" awards and over 200 5-star reviews
• experienced: practicing acupuncture full time since 2007 and herbal medicine since 2000
• local: a member of the first class of the Asheville acupuncture school, Daoist Traditions, and a resident of West Asheville
• consistency of care: we work one-on-one together throughout the entire course of your treatment
• fair rates: initial acupuncture appointments are set at the same rate as follow-ups, no hidden fees, package discounts
• I accept Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards
