In her own words…

Hi! Welcome to my wellness website and blog. I created these pages after being inspired by my knowledgeable and courageous patients, who have taught me about perseverance and lifestyle modifications that have enabled them to live happier and healthier lives during a most trying time. From surprising insights into why acupuncture is preferred over opioids or celery smoothies over decadent desserts, my patients have opened my eyes to the world of holistic medicine and now I have started reaping the benefits myself. Here, I share my growing knowledge of integrative medicine, the name for the field incorporating treatment of body, mind and spirit, as one entity.

Using a critical eye, I present you with all the available information to make informed decisions for yourself and your loved ones.
