Acupuncture in Silver Lake, Rooted on Sunset Drive

I have practiced acupuncture since 2005, and for years my patients have come to me from every corner of this neighborhood. My clinic sits on Sunset Drive, and if you are searching for acupuncture in Silver Lake, here is what I want you to know before you book anywhere: the needles are the least interesting part. What matters is the diagnosis behind them, the training of the person holding them, and whether that person talks to the rest of your medical team. That is the practice I have built here.

I hold a Doctorate of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, I am licensed by the California Acupuncture Board and certified by NCCAOM (now NCBAHM), and I supervise doctoral interns as a Clinical Attending Supervisor at Yo San University. You will always be treated by me, not rotated between practitioners.

Most of my patients also have a physician, a specialist, or a fertility clinic. I consider that a feature. I read your labs, I understand your medications, and when it helps your care, I coordinate directly with your doctors. Chinese medicine gives me a diagnostic lens Western medicine does not use, patterns of circulation, temperature, and constitution, and the combination catches things either system misses alone.

A treatment plan here may include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, cupping, moxibustion, or tui na bodywork, chosen for your pattern rather than applied as a menu.
