Each acupuncture point carries a name, an image, a story and a deeper meaning reflecting the connection between body, mind, emotions & your spirit.

The points we use can support the physical body while also healing the mind and spirit by creating space for us to calm, release, reconnect, ground, restore, rebalance, and come back to ourselves.

That’s part of the beauty of Chinese medicine: we treat the whole person, not just the symptom. ✨

Postpartum care is about more than recovering from birth. It’s about nourishing the body, calming the nervous system, & rebuilding your reserves.

At Desert Acupuncture, postpartum care may include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, nutritional support, & individualized care to support your body through this transformative season.

You deserve care, too.

As a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, I look at the whole picture: your symptoms, goals, history, patterns, lifestyle, sleep, diet, digestion, stress, and everything in between to create a treatment approach that is specific to you.

I also believe healing takes consistency. Sometimes the biggest changes begin with the smallest ones: sleeping a little better, having less pain, feeling calmer, digesting more comfortably, or simply feeling more like yourself again.

When you're ready to try TCM consider coming to visit me at Desert Acupuncture. 🤍🌵

Your nervous system doesn’t have to be completely overwhelmed before you deserve support. Acupuncture can be a gentle way to support relaxation, regulation, sleep, digestion, and the body’s ability to recover from stress. IYKYK!

At Desert Acupuncture, I offer a range of appointment lengths and services at different price points, so you can choose the level of care that feels right for you.

You don’t have to wait until you’re burned out to take care of yourself.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, emotional wellbeing is not separate from physical health. The way we think, feel, process, and carry stress can influence the body and the body can influence the mind.

For those who tend to be overthinkers, worriers, or get caught in cycles of rumination, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can be a beautiful part of supporting the nervous system and restoring balance.

Rather than simply asking, “How do I stop worrying?” TCM asks a deeper question:
What is happening underneath the worry?
Sometimes the body needs nourishment. Sometimes Qi needs to move. Sometimes Blood needs to be supported. Sometimes the Spirit needs to be gently settled.

This is one of the things I love about TCM: we don't separate the mind from the body. We care for the whole person.

If your mind has been feeling busy lately, if you feel wired but tired at bedtime, your body may be asking for support, too.

A beautiful evening of acupuncture, sound healing, meditation, nervous system regulation, and deep rest shared with people you love.

Thank you to our sweet birthday girl for letting us be part of such a special celebration. ✨

A little less doing.

Women’s health has always been a special area of passion for me. 🤍

I believe there is value in looking at the whole picture: your symptoms, health history, nutrition, lifestyle, laboratory data, hormone patterns and your individual TCM pattern.

Traditional Chinese Medicine gives me one lens. Integrative and functional medicine gives me another. Testing and data can give us additional information to help guide the way.

I love being able to bring these perspectives together and create care that is individualized, holistic and rooted in the person sitting in front of me.

I’m continually investing in my education because I want to keep expanding the tools I can offer my patients especially the women I have the privilege of caring for throughout different stages of life.
