I opened Community Acupuncture of Marin in 2007. I loved how I could make acupuncture affordable enough so just about anyone could get treatments. Now my community can get acupuncture frequently enough to make a significant positive impact, and it does! I also love using herbs, they are powerful, effective, and ...natural!

I have been interested in alternative health since my teens.  I worked in the health food industry in the early 80’s. During that time I experienced acute back pain and acupuncture resolved it quickly. This sparked an interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

I have studied Master Tong Acupuncture through several of his disciples. He was a famous acupuncturist in Taiwan in the 40’s.  I have found his method to be the quickest effective treatment for most physical and emotional issues.

I am so grateful to have found this community and I look forward to using this beautiful system of medicine to help people feel healthier and happier.
