I started my journey into the holistic healing arts when medical treatment failed to help me in 2001. After getting a diagnosis of Lyme Disease and Chronic Fatigue 1999 with huge list of symptoms from physical to neurological to emotional my doctor ended up starting me on an extensive treatment of two antibiotics which I did for a year and half. I did over a hundred hyperbaric treatments. I never felt normal only had some had occasional better days. It was after the last round on hyperbaric that I came to the conclusion the advice from my doctor was not helpful at all for me (I literally felt like I would die an early death if I stayed within the medical paradigm!) and he basically only knew how to treat with drugs and for me that does not work! So if I wanted to live a lively life again I need to go outside the box of conventional medicine and check into more natural alternative health methods. Which I did and healed. From there I became inspired to work with others who may find themselves at a loss as what to do to heal themselves when all else fails. Everything I offer is what I incorporated to help myself heal and continue to stay healthy because it works!!!
Life is always a process of evolvement, shedding false beliefs and renewing into the better understanding of who you are. Please contact if you find drawn to work with me.
From 1982 - 1986 I took college courses focusing on the human body and how it works like biology, chemistry, human anatomy and physiology. I excelled in anything to do with digestion and assimilation and the chemistry it produces. My goal was to become a registered dietitian, but my path was blessed with the birth of my children. They became my focus not going to college for a career.
1986 - present for nearly 40 years I have taken many courses and have certifications in Nutritional food healing programs. From Low fat/High Carb plant based(high raw and/or cooked) to carnivore Zero Carb, and pretty much everything in between for an extensive amounts of time to see for myself what seems helpful and what doesn't. I have learned an extensive amount of information. You will find out more on my Holistic Health Advising page.
1996 Started training in the Martial Arts with a Korean martial art called Kuk Sool Won and then Kuk Sul Do which I finally achieved a black belt in 2006. I also studied arnis, tae kon do, grappling, short and long stick, sword and numchucks. I learned about moving energy to prevent harm and to cause harm, with emphasis on preventing combative situations. Our grandmaster would teach us healing techniques.
1999 I learned Medical Qigong The Primordial. A gentle and very effective routine that brings energy into the body. Heals blockages and brings strength to the body, mind and spirit. I also learned the basics of Tui na which is a form of bodywork from China which works directly with the life force energy of the body often call “chi”. It’s bodywork similar to qigong. I learned from the late Dr. Bingkum Hu in Berkeley, CA.
