Biography

As a state-licensed acupuncturist, I incorporate acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Chinese Tuina/massage, and Chinese Qigong into my treatments. My main practice focuses on pain management and endocrine disorders, but I also have a strong interest in cancer care, women’s health issues and neurological disorders.

I earned my medical degree in traditional Chinese medicine in China and have completed an additional six years of specialty study and research. I hold a doctoral degree in endocrinology and a master’s degree in orthopedics and traumatology.

With 30 years of clinical, teaching, and research experience at the university level in China and the United States, I've had the opportunity to share my knowledge and help many patients throughout my career.
