Maui Kids Acupuncture is committed to bringing safe, gentle, and loving care to families in the Maui community. http://www.mauikidsacupuncture.com

After I had a back injury in 2000, the only relief I had was from acupuncture treatments. I had two weeks of pain just from breathing. I decided to try acupuncture because pain medication my doctors were giving me wasn’t helping me get well. I had two weeks of acupuncture treatments that gave me tremendous relief and eventually freed me from pain completely. My husband had back surgery in 2004. He had abnormal tissue growth on his spine. Despite 3 operations, it left him with severe pain and muscle spasms. Acupuncture is one of very few things that continues to give him relief from his ongoing pain and discomfort. Through my own family experiences, I wanted to understand the healing properties of acupuncture and Oriental medicine. Knowing how it helped my family, I decided to give back to my community by offering families acupuncture treatments to get pain relief without medication. Deciding to become an acupuncturist has become my greatest gift because I see so many patients get the relief to live a happy and healthy life again. I get to contribute to the health and happiness of individuals, in the past, in my Oregon practice and now here in my practice on Maui. www.MauiKidsAcupuncture.com

I got my degree from University of Oregon with a degree in Educational Studies with specialty in Family and Community Services. I then earned Masters of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MAOM) from Oregon College of Oriental Medicine. I specialize in pediatrics, mental-emotional, and pain management. I realized that Chinese medicine has its strength in preventing and healing ailments from root causes. Chinese medicine's holistic approach is much gentler and less invasive to your body. I am here to assist you and your family to live life in full health, both physically and mentally. I am committed to safe and compassionate care that guides you back to a happy and healthy life, once again. If you have any questions or concerns before making an appointment, please feel free to contact me. Call: 808-468-2459 or
Email your questions to: Mauikidsacu@gmail.com. www.MauiKidsAcupuncture.com

I would be happy to talk about your needs and my approaches to how I can better treat your specific situation. I look forward to talking with you soon.

Acupuncturists friends!

Will you join me Tokyo, May 2026 for the Pediatric Acupuncture Japan Tour? Learn Shonishin & Teishin at the sacred Ejima Sugiyama Shrine, connect with colleagues, and experience Japan during sumo season. CEUs available! Link in comments.

I’m so happy to hear this from my new patient. They were suffering from the shoulder pain for 2 weeks straight.

Oh my my! Acupuncturists, I’m so excited to host another pediatric tour in Japan. Amazing teachers, lots of hands on practice, so you can apply techniques at your clinic right away. If you want to
work with kids, this is it!! DM with email address for more details.

What can you do to keep your keiki happy and healthy this school year? If you don’t want to see them suffer from lingering cough, runny nose, ear infection, fever and cold, please consider bringing them in for immune boosting treatment. I see many sick kids in the falls every year. I keep reminding the parents to bring them in before or beginning of the school year, so that we can PREVENT them from getting sick instead of intervening. As you can guess, it’s much easier to prevent illness than getting rid of illness. This is the beauty of this medicine. You DO NOT have to have any symptoms to come see me. In my humble opinion, prevention is the best medicine. No parents want to see their kids suffer from sickness.

Love working with kids and their families! (And love my job!). Yes, I specialize in pediatrics, but I do enjoy working with kids of all ages. I’m blessed to work with kids, their parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles, great grandparents, cousins and more. Thank you so much for trusting me and choosing me to be a part of your health journey!

Do you want to know how to treat children effectively using a gentle touch modality called Shonishin? Shonishin is a technique originated in Japan by acupuncturists. Using small metal tools, you will learn how to treat children for wide range of health concerns. (common cold and childhood illnesses, boost immunity, calm emotions, ease digestion, etc).

We lined up with amazing teachers who have been working with children for many years with great results. (Tadashi Kanno, Yuri Narushima, Shin Suzuki, Ayako Yamaguchi ans more!)

You will have an opportunity to receive a treatment from a Japanese practitioner also.

You will learn about the father of Japanese acupuncture, Waichi Sugiyama.

We are offering our 5th Japan tour in May! We are keeping it small (max of 12 participants), and we still have space (6 more). Approximately 30 CEUs available (NCCAOM and California). And this is a great time to visit Japan with beautiful weather. Tuition is $1950.

The 5 day workshop will take place at a shrine dedicated to acupuncture and acupuncturists in Ryogoku, Tokyo.

We also planed this tour to coincide with the sumo tournament (the shrine is located within a walking distance to the sumo arena). (And US $ is strong right now!)

If you have any questions, please feel free to DM me.

With warm qi,

Acupuncturists, if you want to treat kids with gentle approach, shonishin is the way to go. There isn’t much shonishin instructions available in the US, so let’s go to the source, Japan. I was born and raised there and bilingual. Have been studying with amazing teachers over 10 years in Japan now. It is limited to 12 people, so you will get instructions on hands on. Please DM with your email address, if you are interested.
