  Azara Health & Wellness

  Jan 2011 - now

  Founder, Acupuncturist

  As founder of Azara Health & Wellness I use a holistic approach to patient treatment with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. I believe healing is a complex process that involves active participation of both the practitioner and the patient. I am dedicated to bringing the body back to full wellness and balance through acupuncture, Chinese herbs, bodywork, dietary recommendations, and lifestyle modifications.I’m astounded over and over again what acupuncture can do for people. When somebody comes into my office with 10 out of 10 pain, dependent on prescription meds, and desperate for relief; and with one or two needles I can take that pain down to a 3 and eventually a zero, it’s a very rewarding feeling. To be able to facilitate that kind of change in somebody’s life within minutes, is extremely fulfilling.Special interests include: - Women's health (PMS, menopause, hormonal irregularities, etc), - Fertility - Pain (acute and/or chronic) - Digestive disorders - Insomnia - Skin disorders such as acne, eczema, psoriasis - Stress, anxiety, and other emotional disharmonies Show less
