My Philosophy

"My philosophy as an acupuncturist is to provide high-quality and patient-centered care and possess sufficient knowledge and skills. I have dedicated over 18 years to studying and practicing acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine across the United States, China, Korea, and New Zealand. Therefore, my expertise spans a spectrum of treatment styles.

Through acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, I strive to enhance my patient's quality of life by addressing the underlying causes of their ailments. Rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, I approach healing as a holistic journey, considering the entire individual—body, emotions, and spirit. I recognize diseases as manifestations of physical, emotional, or spiritual imbalances and tailor my treatments accordingly. My ultimate goal is to empower holistic wellness through acupuncture and facilitate my patients' well-being by restoring harmony to both their minds and bodies."

Building Expertise: My Acupuncture Education

I began my acupuncture journey in 2005, enrolling in the esteemed Henan University of Chinese Medicine (HUCM) in China. At HUCM, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Clinical Traditional Chinese and Western Integrative Medicine. With this comprehensive knowledge, I am able to uniquely bridge Western medical concepts with Chinese Medicine terminologies, offering integrative treatments tailored to my patient's needs.

My educational pursuits extended further, culminating in a Diploma in Acupuncture in New Zealand and a Master of Science and Doctoral degrees in Oriental Medicine in the United States. Informed by my extensive education and clinical experience, I firmly believe that Western and Chinese medicines are not opposing forces but rather essential partners, each complementing the other seamlessly. I am committed to offering personalized, comprehensive, and integrative care grounded in traditional Chinese medicine and supported by evidence-based practice.

Patient-Centered Acupuncture: A Personal Perspective, Tailoring Care to You

I believe in treating each patient as a unique individual with specific needs and concerns. I take the time to listen attentively to my patients, understanding their medical history, lifestyle, and emotional well-being. This comprehensive understanding helps me tailor my treatments to address not just the symptoms but also the underlying causes of their health issues.

I am a strong advocate for holistic well-being, recognizing the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit. I work collaboratively with my patients. I educate them about their conditions and involve them in the decision-making process. I prioritize my patient care. I listen to and support every patient with trust and responsibility. My goal is to create comfort and inspire trust in the care they receive at this clinic. In addition, my goal is to not only alleviate my patients' immediate health concerns but also to support them in achieving long-term wellness and a higher quality of life.
