PHILOSOPHY

Over 20 years ago I left the daily grind of a busy office environment in order to find a role in life in which I could be of benefit to others. I was lucky enough to be drawn to Chinese medicine, its wonderful history, philosophy and therapeutic approach. These aspects resonated with my core beliefs of life, healing and wellness. I can now pass on this knowledge to others. The depth of understanding of the world around us gives Chinese medicine its foundation and still astounds me today.

My goal now is bringing together the modern knowledge of anatomy, physiology and psychology and combining it with the traditional understanding of human health, derived from Chinese medicine, to create a clinical approach that is modern, accessible and beneficial to others. The fact that I completely enjoy what I do on a daily basis is an incredible bonus and could not imagine doing anything else.

"A holistic approach can be of benefit to anyone afflicted by injury, disease or poor health . . ."

Acupuncture for Sinus, Chronic and Acute Inflammation

Chronic and acute sinus inflammation and infection can cause ongoing breathing problems and pain throughout areas of the face. Post sinus surgery recovery is also an important time to consider. Often a combination of herbs and acupuncture is used to treat patients with sinus issues. 

Why acupuncture?

Acupuncture is used to stimulate your own normal healing and immune functions. This is why it is considered a 'natural medicine'. It does not use pharmaceuticals, chemicals or surgery to force your body to change but only encourages the healing ability that naturally exists in all of us.
