The analytical approach of Traditional Chinese Medicine is my primary tool for diagnosis and treatment, however, I do utilize meridian therapy, trigger point therapy, the balance method, and auricular therapy as necessary. For orthopedic and sport related concerns I employ a variety of standard orthopedic and muscle testing to confirm diagnosis.
My focus is and will remain one on one personalized attention and treatment; the very serene desert location adds to the healing environment.
