Stephanie is very passionate about what Traditional Chinese Medicine has to offer and has a wonderful desire to educate the public in how it can complement any level of health care treatment. It is her mission to show how both Eastern and Western Medicines can work together to fulfill the common goal of giving people the best healthcare options they deserve.
I Would Enthusiastically Recommend Stephanie
”I had done acupuncture prior to seeing Stephanie and what I immediately noted as setting her apart from others s both the thoroughness and amount of time she appropriates to understanding what brought me there. Additionally, during succeeding appointments, Stephanie continues to spend time accessing and notating my current health needs. I have found her to be skillful, knowledgeable and respectful. I trust her to know how to treat differing symptomatology. I would enthusiastically recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for the healing advantages of acupuncture.”
