About
Bio
I am an MD and have specialized in Five Element Acupuncture as taught by Dr./Professor J. R. Worsley since 1974. I love what I do and have a private practice since then in Sacramento, and Auburn, CA. I have also studied Functional Medicine, Ayurvedic Medicine, Meditation, and Yoga, and include them in my repertoire. I do a lot of work with Nutrition and Diet, teaching Meditation and Yoga, counseling on positive thought and life style modifications
