Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments combine Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and French techniques to address chronic pain, neurological conditions, and systemic imbalances. Using the Mapping Systems of the Brain method, we target specific meridians to stimulate natural healing processes. Each session incorporates evidence-based protocols tailored to individual health goals.
Functional Blood Chemistry
We offer comprehensive blood chemistry panels that go beyond standard testing to identify early signs of organ dysfunction and metabolic imbalances. This preventive approach allows for targeted interventions through acupuncture and nutritional support, addressing health concerns before they develop into serious conditions.
Herbs & Nutrition
Our herbal protocols draw from traditional Chinese medicine and modern nutritional science to complement acupuncture treatments. We provide personalized recommendations for dietary changes and supplement regimens that support long-term wellness and address specific health challenges like autoimmune disorders and hormonal imbalances.
Chinese Medicine
We practice traditional Chinese medicine with a focus on holistic diagnosis and treatment. Our approach incorporates pulse and tongue analysis, abdominal palpation, and meridian mapping to create comprehensive treatment plans that address both symptoms and underlying health patterns.
Autoimmune Treatment
Our specialized autoimmune protocols combine acupuncture, blood chemistry analysis, and herbal medicine to regulate immune system function. We focus on reducing inflammation, addressing gut health, and restoring balance to the body's systems through personalized treatment plans developed over decades of clinical experience.

Patricia is amazing! I have been seeing her for years for a variety of things, so whatever your symptoms are, GO HERE! Not only does she have the most comprehensive knowledge of the body, mind, soul connection, but she also has a heart of gold! My husband recently had his first appointment and said, "Wow, I'm a believer in acupuncture now!" The headache he was experiencing while walking into his session, disappeared within seconds. After 2 weeks of recommended homeopathic medicine for other symptoms, his pain is gone! We appreciate you Patricia! :
