Clinical Programs
You don't need to know which program fits. Most people start with a single first visit, and we decide together from there.

Ninety minutes. We go through your health history, including any medications and supplements, talk about what you'd like to change, and you have your first treatment.
By the end, we'll agree on whether a program makes sense, and which one.
Programs run from 6 to 20 sessions, with a check-in built in partway through to see how you're responding.
Every program has a defined length. Nothing is open-ended.
Choose whatever sounds closest. It opens the program below.
This is where most people begin. Each session is time to shift out of constant alert and rest deeply on the table. Over a course of care, the aim is steadier sleep, energy, and focus between visits.
No diagnosis is needed. Every course still begins with a full intake, including a review of any medications and supplements.
We start by mapping what your nights actually look like: whether the trouble is falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early. You'll keep a simple sleep log between visits so we can see what's changing.
Many people arrive on long-term sleep medication and would like to rely on it less. Any change to a prescription is a conversation with your prescribing physician; I coordinate with them rather than direct it. Snoring, pauses in breathing, or heavy daytime sleepiness call for a sleep study first, and I'll tell you if that's the right next step.
Assessment: sleep onset versus maintenance, circadian pattern, and an hour-by-hour account of the night.
Medication context: sedative-hypnotics, antihistamines, and melatonin reviewed at intake. Any deprescribing is led by the prescriber.
This program is for nerve pain, pain after amputation, complex regional pain, and long-standing muscle and joint pain that has become more sensitive over time.
If you take pain medication, including if you're working with your doctor to reduce it, your regimen is reviewed and factored into the plan from the start.
Presentations: CRPS, phantom limb pain, diabetic neuropathy, and chronic musculoskeletal pain with central sensitization.
Medication context: muscle relaxants, analgesics, and opioids, including tapering contexts, reviewed at intake.
Coordination: pain management, physiatry, and spine. Documentation available to the care team.
Treatment combines acupuncture with moxibustion, a gentle warming technique, guided by hands-on assessment of the abdomen. The work focuses on scar tissue, fascial tightness, and fluid that isn't moving well.
The lymphatic system has no pump of its own. It relies on movement, breathing, and supple tissue to move fluid, which is where this program comes in. It works alongside lymphatic massage therapists and your physicians, not in place of them. If you've been diagnosed with lymphedema, stay under the care of your treating physician.
Coordination: designed to complement care from certified MLD therapists, physiatrists, and vascular physicians.
The work addresses motor recovery, stiffness and spasticity, changes in sensation, thinking and memory, and the deep fatigue that often follows a stroke. Visits are more frequent early on, then taper as gains settle.
Home visits are available for anyone who finds getting to the clinic difficult.
Protocol: phased course aligned with the sub-acute and chronic recovery arc.
Coordination: neurology, physiatry, and rehabilitation. Clinical notes available on request.
This program focuses on nerve pain and numbness from chemotherapy, fatigue, the fogginess often called “chemo brain,” joint pain from hormone therapy, and the general sense of being thrown off balance by treatment.
Every medication you take, including chemotherapy, is reviewed at intake as a standard part of care. Acupuncture here supports your oncology care; it doesn't replace it.
Presentations: CIPN, cancer-related fatigue, cognitive impairment, and aromatase inhibitor–associated arthralgia.
Medication context: chemotherapy agents, immunosuppressants, and supportive medications reviewed at intake.
Coordination: oncology and integrative medicine teams.
A slow, carefully paced course focused on helping the nervous system settle. The early sessions are about safety and trust, and you set the pace throughout.
Acupuncture here supports your therapy or psychiatric care rather than replacing it, and with your consent I'm glad to stay in touch with your treatment team. Payment is split across three points in the course, so cost doesn't become one more source of stress.
Protocol: trauma-informed throughout, with titrated entry.
Coordination: adjunctive to psychiatry, therapy, and social work. Communication with the treating team is encouraged.
Start with a first visit. We'll work it out together.
