About me . . .

I came to Chinese Medicine, like so many others, because western medicine had nothing left to offer me but cortisone injections and surgery. 

I was just 16 when my doctor told me to do anything I could to avoid surgery (at that time success rates for shoulder surgery specifically were somewhere around 50% or less) so I tried to be gentle with my shoulders for years and years, doing pretty well, until I got “frozen shoulder” while catering in my early 20’s.

My mom had been trying to talk me into acupuncture for years but I was afraid of needles and FINALLY pain won out so I went to see Robin… Robin seriously saved my shoulders! (Also the asthma I had developed after bronchitis around 18-19 was gone too!!) 

I was just starting nursing school when I decided after that, I was going to be an acupuncturist! 

I’ve made it my life’s work to help others as I’ve been helped!

I'm thankful for my very supportive family and my practitioner, Robin.

I love what I do and am so grateful I get to share it with others!
