Jean chose to devote her skills and expertise to Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine after trying acupuncture as a last ditch effort for her own chronic low back pain.
Please watch the video below which descibes Jean’s healing journey….
With regular visits, her back pain resolved. For the first time in years she was pain free. Other aspects of her life changed as well. She was happier and less stressed. Her friends and family noticed how much more relaxed and easy going she had become. To this day, she continues to use acupuncture to maintain her health and well being.
She learned that the main tenet of acupuncture was treating the whole person (body, mind, and spirit), not just symptoms. She felt cared for and tended during her sessions. She realized that this holistic, whole person approach what was missing in her Western medical practice. She wanted her patients to experience the care and tending that she received during her acupuncture treatments.
She understands that acupuncture focuses on maintaining optimal health naturally so that the body is better able to resist disease. Through identifying the root cause of your symptom or illness and then addressing the imbalance in a way that works naturally with your body, acupuncture seeks to restore optimum health so the body’s natural healing mechanisms can take over.
Jean’s vision is to share her knowledge of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture and her passion for natural health and healing, tending to the indivual to provide the highest quality of patient care. Jean sincerely looks forward to meeting you and working together with you to reach your optimum health.
