Why might you consider acupuncture or Chinese medicine?
If you have been suffering with ailments that have not been receptive to conventional modern medicine, or have exhausted your list of medical doctors who tell you there is nothing more they can do for you, or if you are just beaten down by the stress/anxiety/depression of modern living, then maybe Chinese medicine is your pathway to better health and quality of life.
My philosophy is that good health comes from a balanced mind, body & spirit, but sometimes needs encouragement and fine-tuning to keep running well. Chronic illness is the result of many factors over time, and my goal is to use Chinese medicine as the foundation to help you feel healthy & vibrant, and to help you to stop defining yourself by your illness.
While I am a general practitioner, the specific focus of my practice is using Chinese medicine for internal disharmonies, such as helping people who suffer with auto-immune issues, including Multiple Sclerosis, Raynaud's syndrome, SLE (Lupus), rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease & ulcerative colitis, and allergies of all sorts, from seasonal to skin conditions, as well as supporting the overall well-being of people undergoing medical treatments for cancer.
I am also one of the few practitioners in NYC who specializes in pediatric treatments, as this has many modalities other than needling, specifically pediatric tuina (massage) and shoni shin.
