His journey to becoming an acupuncturist and practitioner of Chinese Medicine began after a serious back injury. He was left with extreme pain in his lower back that radiated to his legs. This pain would often get so intense that he had difficulty walking. When faced with the prospect of a highly invasive surgery that carried the risk of paralysis, he explored other options in both the world of allopathic and alternative medicine. Physical therapy and painkillers provided only temporary relief. However, acupuncture not only offered lasting relief but also sparked a realization that he lacked a basic understanding of his own body. This pivotal experience led him to change the course of his life, shifting from a career path in social work to one focused on body-oriented healing. Read my Bio.
How it works
Acupuncture works by increasing the amount of our body’s own opioids found in the brain. These naturally occurring drugs are then sent to the area of the body that is in pain. It also increases blood flow to the site of injury there by delivering more oxygen and nutrients to promote healing. Acupuncture results in the release of endorphins and balances the levels of serotonin and dopamine in the brain. This takes our nervous system from a hyper functioning state, where we experience anxiety and stress, to a calm, balanced state. It increases our nitric oxide production resulting in increased respiratory and cardiac health. In short your body is designed to exist in a balanced state. Acupuncture sends the signals to your body that it is time to relax and let the healing begin.
