I employ ear seeds with almost all of my patients, some of whom are people of color. I am so glad this option is now available.

Ear seeds are often used as a treatment in and of themselves as well as to extend the benefits between weekly acupuncture treatments. I even use them as acupressure points on the body during treatment in areas that a patient may be feeling too sensitive to needle.

A beautiful piece by my friend and colleague Meghan ❤️🙏🏼

As I listen to the concerns of my patients and process my own emotions, I am reminded of the stages of grief formulated by the great psychiatrist Elisabeth Kubler-Ross who pioneered end-of-life care. She observed common stages in her patients who were struggling with loss: denial, anger, bargaining,...

Well hello Winter 2020 and welcome to a share that was important to pass on. I must admit I’ve been lax in posting to my professional page but I promise to share more in the new year. Depression can be debilitating and it’s often the “impossible tasks” that really make it glaringly so. Acupuncture, massage and Chinese herbal medicine are safe and effective for treating depression. They can be used as stand alone treatment or in conjunction with Western medicine.

One of the most discouraging parts of mental illness is when your thought processes don't even make sense to you, but that doesn’t bring you any closer to overcoming them.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here, so to round out 2018, I’m going to make a concerted effort to change that. I’ll start with this recent blog I wrote on placenta previa and how Chinese Medicine, acupuncture and massage therapy can be helpful in treating it.

Placenta Previa is a condition characterized by the placenta partially or completely covering the mother’s cervix, the passageway for the uterus. This obstruc

Happy Spring Everyone! I haven’t posted on my business page in a while as I’d been changing jobs and some of my focus. It’s been a rollercoaster the past 8 months but I’m beginning to feel settled and recharged, refocused and ready to share some interesting and hopefully helpful information with you. Let’s start with this...

A gut expert weighs in on exactly what goes down in the microbiome when someone with a "normal" diet cuts out several food groups all at once.

On acupuncture and the opioid crisis. Important read.

Today I saw another in a long line of articles decrying the response to the national opioid crisis. This one shines a light on the role and responsibility insurance companies play and have played in this crisis, and as I read it, I could feel my blood...

Treating children and teens with acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be incredibly helpful. Within the past year I have begun working with young adults, teens and children at the New York Black Belt Center, where I train Taekwondo in Queens as well as The Yinova Center in Manhattan. It is quite fascinating to see how well this demographic responds and I look forward to expanding my knowledge within it.
