Why I Got Into Acupuncture  

After ACL surgery, I struggled with pain, stiffness, and inflammation that wasn’t resolving through conventional rehab. Acupuncture provided unexpected relief and a profound shift in my recovery. What started as a personal experiment turned into a regular practice for pain management, stress relief, and insomnia, eventually inspiring me to pursue a career in the field.  

Coolest Thing About Being A Practitioner

Helping people feel better—whether through pain relief, stress reduction, or optimizing recovery. I also enjoy nerding out on the science behind acupuncture—there’s always more to learn, and the deeper I go, the more fascinating it becomes.
