	Billing Insurance I'm still just providing paperwork for individuals seeking reimbursement, but I took a class on insurance billing, so this may change in the nearish future. Leaving messages I must reiterate, especially if you're calling me from a wireless phone, state your callback number slowly and clearly. Twice. Then I'll thank you by calling you back because I can. The blog has moved to blogspot.

Do you want to feel better?

I am often asked what acupuncture can do. I can give you a laundry list: back aches, headaches, allergies, digestive issues, PMS, menopause, insomnia, depression, anxiety, nausea, fatigue, ADHD, all kinds of stuff. Then you might wonder how I can effectively treat so many things. Honestly, some things do respond more than others. Some people respond more than others.

"Can it treat this?" Generally, yes. Grossly oversimplified, traditional Oriental medicine views health as determined by quantity and quality of qi, or life energy. Every physical malady boils down to an energetic imbalance. It would be egotistical of me to say "I fix" or "I heal." What I do, be it acupuncture, TBM, or prescribing herbs, is encouraging your body to come back into balance.

New nutrition line

I've become a Nutrametrix distributor. These are a unique kind of supplements; the water soluble ones being in isotonic capable powder form. This lets them absorb very quickly. There is a confidential online questionaire called the NutriPhysical to advise you on areas where you may need supplementation; I can also muscle test to verify the recommendation.
