\n<\/p>\n
How did I end up from a Math degree from McGill University (Montreal, Canada) to a Professional Master\u2019s Level degree in Acupuncture? My children had all flown the coop and were testing their wings (currently in Israel, New York City and San Jose), and I was at a crossroads. After several months of career counseling and trying to find out what color is my parachute, curiosity led me to an open house at the American Institute of Alternative Medicine (AIAM) and the rest \u2026\u2026is history.<\/p>\n
I love this medicine. I love that it is a safe modality that empowers each of us to become aware of the healing potential that is within our mind and body and spirit. I love that each potential problem may be resolved in a myriad of ways because the body is so interconnected embryonically, neurologically and vascularly. I love that because of the giving and sharing nature of the acupuncture community, I can learn new ways and insights on how to tackle different disorders. But most of all I love the serene and amazed looks on my\/our patients\u2019 faces after having been treated.<\/p>\n
I am grateful for the support of my family who encouraged me to pursue my passion and to the teachers of the world who pass on knowledge to avid minds.<\/p>\n
Currently, I practice at a chiropractor\u2019s office in Worthington and am an adjunct faculty at AIAM. I am honored to join the Urban Acupuncture team of dedicated practitioners.<\/p>\n
