History
I started my business in 2003 after years in the real estate industry. I had long been interested in Eastern philosophy and medicine but had not considered pursuing them as a career. Along with a general feeling of dissatisfaction about life, I developed chronic back pain. A friend recommended I go see an acupuncturist. Not only did my back start to improve but so did my overall well-being and experience of life. I enrolled at the New England School of Acupuncture (NESA) where I earned a Master's in Acupuncture while also completing a 9-month certification program in Toyo Hari Meridian Therapy.
