Specialized Care for Chronic Conditions 

Along with constitutional Five Element care, I provide specialized treatment for several complex and disruptive physical symptoms:

Eczema & Chronic Skin Irritation

In Chinese medicine, skin conditions like red, flaky, and itchy eczema are often linked to stress and a natural decline in "Yin," which creates dryness and internal heat. A comprehensive approach combining acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and targeted lifestyle shifts can be highly effective. To support your treatments, I recommend simple changes like removing alcohol from your diet and replacing harsh lye-based soaps—which strip the skin’s protective lipid barrier—with gentle, pH-balanced cleansers.

Dizziness & Vertigo

Whether you experience vertigo (a sensation of the room spinning) or general dizziness (feeling unsteady or light-headed), these unpredictable symptoms can both be deeply exhausting. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs work well to restore balance and calm the nervous system. Because dizziness can have diverse triggers—ranging from internal imbalances to unexpected dietary sensitivities, like fermented dairy—we will work together to investigate the root causes.

Nausea & Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome (CVS)

If you struggle with chronic nausea or recurring, episodic vomiting without a clear conventional diagnosis, acupuncture may offer much needed relief. In Chinese medicine, these symptoms often point to a digestive imbalance, such as stress causing "Wood to invade Earth" (overactive Liver Qi disrupting Stomach function), or internal heat causing Stomach Qi to move upward instead of downward. During your dedicated, hour-long visits, we will unravel these factors to stop the cycle and restore your digestive health.
