Your Body, Your Treatment Plan
No two bodies are the same so no two treatments should be either. Every acupuncture session is personalized. It’s not a one-size-fits-all protocol. It’s based on your symptoms, your history, your lifestyle, your energy and what your body is communicating that day. I’m...
Unlearn Control with Acupuncture
I enjoy being in control. It makes me feel safe and I know what’s going to happen – or so I think. However, we never really are in total control because anything can happen at any time. So, that’s a false sense of safety for me that keeps my nervous system “on.”...
Align Your Actions with Your Values
Whether we say it out loud or not, we all have things that are important to us - things we value. For me, health is one of those things. So, I try to be as intentional as I can with what I consume, how I move, and how I rest. Intentional doesn’t mean perfect though....
Strength Training is a Must
Muscles are for every body - regardless of age. Muscle growth is a biological response to stimulus. When you challenge a muscle through resistance, tiny fibers break down. With proper recovery, your body repairs them stronger than before. Strength actually becomes...
Change is Constant
Your body is constantly adjusting to stress, seasons, hormones, sleep, and everything else in daily life. When your body adapts well, you feel balanced. When it doesn’t, symptoms start to show up; tension, fatigue, pain, overwhelm. Acupuncture helps your body do what...
Just Try
Part of my job as a Coach is to push people. Kindly of course, but to push them past their comfort levels or belief that they can’t do something. I will never encourage a client to do something that I don’t believe they can do. Thus, if I’m pushing - I know they can...
you’re allowed to want more
You are allowed. Get comfortable with that word and use it often. Please. Wanting more for yourself is an act of love, courage, and determination. More isn’t the easy route. More is growth & it will require a lot of you. Everyone’s “more” is different; more...
You can’t STOP aging!
Contrary to what we see/hear on social media right now, there is no “anti-aging.” No magic pill. No magic workout. Not even magic surgery. Aging is a natural part of life that starts when we’re born. We can’t stop it, BUT we can alter its trajectory. How we age is...
Moxa, not Moxie
As a Japanese Acupuncturist, I use adjuncts a lot during treatment. Adjuncts are something other than needles during a treatment. One of them I use is moxa. When I tell people that I use moxa, they often say “moxie”. LOL, not moxie, but moxa. I use moxa on people....
Collaboration WORKS!
Chloe joined my 30 Minutes of Everything® (30MoE) program in upstate NY in 2017. At that point, the program had been running for 6 years, membership was over 150 members, we had expanded our coaching staff, we had moved into a larger space, and we offered nearly 40...
