About

A relaxed and approachable acupuncture experience:
My goal is to help you have a relaxed, and healing experience during your acupuncture treatments. Here as some things you can expect, when you come in for a treatment:
- Your treatments take place in a relaxed, and non-clinical setting
- Your treatment table is heated, so you stay warm and relaxed during your session
- The treatment room is quiet, with soft lighting and calming music
- This is your time for quiet reflection and uninterrupted relaxation
- You get to rest quietly with your acupuncture needles in place (you may even nap!)
- It is common to feel rejuvenated, refreshed and restored after a treatment
All of this helps your body tap into its natural healing ability.
This approach puts Traditional Chinese Medicine a million miles away from a sterile, clinical environment. As a result, the calm treatment space gives you a you a place to relax and heal during your session.
Born and raised in Central Minnesota:
I grew up about 10 miles outside of St. Cloud, moving away after college to start my first job.
My plan, after college, was to work in Advertising and Marketing. The first job I landed was in an advertising agency in Dusseldorf, Germany. Eventually, I moved back to Minneapolis to continue in Advertising.
During my time in Advertising, I was getting more and more disillusioned with the industry. I felt like I was being called to find work that would be more meaningful to me, and helpful to others.
During this time, I was studying Eastern healing practices, and learning more about the mind-body connection. Eventually, this interest guided me in the direction of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The Journey
In 1996 I moved to Seattle, Washington and enrolled in a three-and-a-half year, full time Traditional Chinese Medical program.
That was from 1996-1999, and here I am (some 25+ years later), helping other people feel better and live better lives, with acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
The Return to Central Minnesota
After leaving Seattle in 1999, my wife and I moved back to St. Cloud, where we opened our first acupuncture clinic.
I am grateful every day for the opportunity to do the work that I am doing, while bringing joy and healing to the people whom I am honored to treat.
With decades of proven results, I am confident that I can help you achieve your health goals in the shortest amount of time.
If I do not think I can help you, I will try to refer you to others who are a better fit for you.
