About Me
As a Licensed Acupuncturist I see our innate inner wisdom through the metaphoric lens of Classical Eastern Medicine. This fundamentally guides my practice both in the understanding and the application of Classical Acupuncture, Functional Physiology (TBM), and Energetic Integration. The application of Acupuncture Principles and techniques to CranioSacral Therapy (UMAC), Total Body Modification (TBM), and Energetic Integration Functional bridge the gap between injury and trauma to recovery and wellness.
I am a 2002 graduate of Bastyr University. Following graduation I continued my quest to find masters in Classical Acupuncture, Functional Physiology, and CST to continue studying with. I specialize in blending Master Tung's Advanced Acupuncture with UMAC, CST, and TBM. Studying Master Tung’s system, that is one of the very few remaining Classical Family Styles of acupuncture, has allowed me to broadened my approach to the application of CST / UMAC. Please visit my website for more information about Master Tung and my approach to bring all these systems together.
Even at the start of my time at Bastyr University I was blending Acupuncture with CST. While in my first few years of practice I met and started to study with Ken Koles the developer of the UMAC courses. Since that first meeting I have continued to develop my practice around the blending of UMAC, TBM, and Master Tung. I have more specific information at my website.
Since 2016 I have stepped into the roll of UMAC 1 Instrutor and development of the materials such as the UMAC Menuing Chart and the UMAC Chakra Chart.
My Skills
MASTER TUNG'S ACUPUNCTURE:
UMAC (Unwinding Meridians Applied to CranioSacral Therapy) / CST:
TBM (Total Body Modification):
TBM addresses the body, mind, and brain as a functional adaptive system. The key point to TBM is understanding what is leading to the "functional" restrictions of the body system as a whole. TBM sets out to return the functional adaptation of a patients body and mind back "on" by activating a tested set of reflex points. While many different styles of therapy are able to address the cognitive impact of emotional traumas, stress, belief patterns, and genetically passed down behaviors, TBM addresses the physiological impact of these.
CEW (Creative Emotional Wizardry)
CEW adds to the mix of tools available for clearing the possible emotional impacts on the physical, mental, and metaphysical realities we experience everyday.
FOCUSED SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
FOCUSED SHOCKWAVE THEAPY is the application of acoustic sound generated deep vibrational waves used to address many longstanding, bone, muscle, joint, and facial restrictions. While first utilized to break-up Kidney Stones in a hospital setting the refined application is leading the way in regenerative medicine. By applying the deep connections to Eastern Medical practices like Acupuncture and the Meridian therapy the device has the potential to great enhance and address chronic physical, mental, and emotional pain in a much broader way then other practices.
