What we seek

In Chinese medicine, health is not something imposed from the outside—it emerges when the body is given the right conditions to return to balance. Acupuncture works by meeting the nervous system, the circulation, and the deeper rhythms of the body in a place of quiet precision. We seek to find that moment when tension softens, awareness settles, and the system reorganizes itself naturally.

This practice is an invitation to slow down and listen. Through carefully chosen acupuncture treatments and time-honored Chinese medicine principles, we support the body’s intrinsic intelligence—creating space for restoration, clarity, and long-lasting change.

Katie holds a Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Emperor’s College in Santa Monica, California. She blends the time-honored wisdom of TCM with thoughtful, individualized care—using acupuncture, herbal medicine, and gentle dietary and lifestyle guidance to support the body’s natural capacity for balance and healing. She also specializes in microneedling, addressing a variety of skin concerns by stimulating the body’s own regenerative processes to promote healthy, resilient skin.

Each patient is met with presence, care, and positive intention.

Her work supports the body as an integrated system, creating space for restoration, resilience, and long-term wellness. Through fostering a supportive environment, healing is allowed to unfold naturally—at your own pace.
