Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in Downtown West Asheville

My mission is to provide the highest quality acupuncture Asheville has to offer. I originally moved to the area in 2003 to attend the four-year masters program at the local acupuncture school, Daoist Traditions, and I am honored to be a member of their first graduating class. I have been a Licensed Acupuncturist since 2007 and a Certified Herbalist since 2000 through Rosemary Gladstar's program at Sage Mountain. My office is located in the historic Bledsoe Building in the heart of downtown West Asheville. For more information about the path that lead me here please see my resume and biography.

I am thankful to my community for honoring me with 11 “Best of Western North Carolina” awards and over 140 5-star reviews, and for entrusting me with the health of their family and friends. I have experienced the healing power of Chinese medicine as both a patient and practitioner and feel truly blessed that I am able to help others achieve higher levels of wellness in a way that is both natural and gentle. As a resident of the neighborhood, working in West Asheville holds a special meaning for me and I look forward to serving my community for many more years to come.

Chinese medicine is so much more than just acupuncture! In my experience, all of its therapies have value: acupuncture, herbs, massage, and nutrition. These can be combined in a variety of ways to address a large number of diverse conditions, enhancing the effects of each other, leading to better results in fewer sessions. In fact, I find them all to be equally essential so I provide them for my patients at no extra charge. Furthermore, I intentionally conduct only private sessions because it allows full access to all of the acupuncture points, privacy for disrobing, and space for deeper rest and relaxation, an absolutely essential component of healing.

In my practice over 85% of my patients see significant relief of their symptoms, typically with no side effects. The key to the success of this system is in its holistic approach which aims to address your outward symptoms as well as any deeper, underlying imbalances. This approach creates targeted, individualized treatment plans that work on many levels at once, giving symptomatic relief while, at the same time, improving your overall health so that your symptoms are less likely to re-occur. Whether you are seeking something more natural or are considering alternatives, acupuncture and Chinese medicine may be just what you are looking for.
