Welcome; I’m a licensed acupuncturist with over twenty years’ experience in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I help patients achieve optimal health naturally through acupuncture, cupping, herbal medicine and lifestyle suggestions.

My practice in River West, Chicago, is a warm environment where I specialize in treating allergies, digestive disorders,and all forms of pain, especially pelvic pain, back, and muscle pain. I also specialize in treating Gynecological concerns, including premenstrual syndrome, fertility problems, and vulvodynia.

I earned a B. S., in Kinesiology from University of Illinois in Chicago, and an M. S., in Oriental Medicine from Southwest Acupuncture College, a 4-year program in Boulder, Colorado. I also have a Diplomate from the NCCAOM, the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. I completed an internship at the Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital in Beijing, China.

I am committed to providing the highest quality of care. It is a pleasure to share my knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine with my patients. I have researched and written numerous articles in the field of Chinese medicine, many of which are available on my blog about health and Chinese Medicine. Please feel free to browse the different topics.

My book, Adventures in Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture, Herbs and Ancient Ideas for Today, was published in 2013. Adventures in Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture, Herbs and Ancient Ideas for Today.
