Before fully dedicating myself to Oriental medicine, I worked in international marketing. The fast-paced corporate life left me feeling exhausted and stressed, prompting me to seek ways to maintain balance and health naturally.

My journey back to wellness was inspired by my time in Taiwan, where I witnessed how Chinese medicine is seamlessly integrated into daily life—whether through herbal soups, acupuncture, or Gua Sha treatments. Fascinated by its long history and effectiveness, I decided to pursue Oriental medicine as both a career and a way to help others achieve better health.

Having studied and practiced acupuncture and Oriental medicine in Japan, China, and the United States, I have experienced a variety of treatment methods and approaches. Working with diverse patients across these countries deepened my appreciation for the power and theory of acupuncture and holistic care.

My goal is to help you achieve balance, vitality, and wellness through personalized acupuncture and integrative treatments grounded in centuries of tradition.
