One of the most frequent questions I get asked is what prompted me to learn about acupuncture. So here’s the scoop. Once my kids were a bit older, I enrolled myself in martial arts. After two years I learned about the innate energy that maintains our body when given the proper environment. I started reading about energy, Qi, hence, my four years of study in acupuncture and Chinese herbs. I call it “years of tears” as I worked to complete my thesis resulting in my Masters Degree.
NCCAOM Board Certified and licensed acupuncturist for 25 plus years, I am happy to say that I have had an amazing journey which has led me to introduce several holistic services into my practice.
Having that part of my education behind me, I began my personal studies in meditation and vibrational sound. I became fascinated with the power of vibrational sound after experiencing just one session! My first mentor was Laraaji Nambrananda. I studied with Laraaji in the city and within a couple of years, I began offering Sound and Guided Imagery Workshops at different venues locally. I pursued my education in sound and Tuning Fork Therapy. My studies have been strongly influenced by Dr. John Beaulieu, whom I continue to study with. Acutonics® Planetary Tuning Forks was my next endeavor in which I became a certified practitioner and instructor, offering certifications in Level l and Level ll.
In 2021 I became a certified practitioner for lymph drainage with cupping. I created a one day class in lymph drainage with tuning forks as well!
Check out my Holistic Services to view all the classes being offered. I offer private classes at no extra charge. I would love to have the opportunity to share the gift of sound with you! Life can’t be boring with so much to learn!
As a Life and Mindset Coach, EFT, and Mindfulness have been added to my practice which are very beneficial modalities in helping people to empower themselves and live a happier and healthier lifestyle!
How convenient is that! All you need is a quiet spot! No getting stuck in traffic! That’s the icing on the cake! I am available to offer On Site or Virtual presentations for On Site or Virtual Coaching.
Spending time with my family whether we're relaxing at home or out and about, that's where my heart is. I also enjoy catching up with friends and a good old-fashioned game night. One of my happy places is anywhere near vineyards, whether local or far away, or a good wine tasting in the city.A cozy restaurant, a great glass of wine, and good company. It’s one of my favorite ways to unwind. There’s nothing like daily walks, sitting by the ocean listening to the waves, looking for sea glass, or in my yard soaking up the different birdsongs and the little joys of nature. Life feels pretty magical when we slow down and take it all in. I’m still working on slowing down!
