Treatable Conditions

Here is a short list of ailments I commonly see in my Northwest Arkansas acupuncture and herbal medicine practice. Click on each title to learn more about how Chinese Medicine can addresses that particular ailment.

  • STRESS and ANXIETY  –  It’s no fun feeling like you’re “ON” all the time, can’t turn your brain off, and find it difficult to truly relax. Ongoing stress and feelings of anxiety can cause a cascade of health issues in the body. I’ll be your ally to make physical and lifestyle changes so your body and mind get the support they need.
  • WOMEN’S HEALTH – A woman’s body goes through a lot of changes on a daily and monthly basis. Whether it’s periods that are too long, too painful, non-existent, pre-menstrual issues, trying to get pregnant, need help through a pregnancy, or transitioning to menopause. I can help you comfortably navigate your body’s needs and changes to get you where you want to be.
  • HEADACHES – It’s difficult to think or function optimally when there’s a storm going on in your head. Low or high blood pressure, stress, muscle tightness, hormones, fatigue…I’ll listen to you to get to the root cause of your headaches.
  • DIGESTIVE DISORDERS – Ongoing constipation and diarrhea are not part of of healthy digestive tract. Irregular bowels, cramping, gas, and bloating are not only uncomfortable, they can make work and social settings embarrassing. I can help make your insides happy.
  • ALLERGIES – If you battle with seasonal allergies or food allergies there is a lot I can do to decrease the allergic reactions you experience to external triggers.
  • PAIN – Whether you are an avid athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone who lives with chronic pain, I will use all the modalities in my toolbox to get you pain-free. I know that pain can take you “out” of your life, let us support your path of recovery to get back “in”.
