Philosophy
Katie believes that she is a facilitator in her patients’ healing. It requires
team-work and commitment from both sides. With a firm understanding of Chinese Medicine and an ability to recognize what
is at the root of the problem, Katie uses acupuncture and herbs to help restore health within her patients. At the
same time, she teaches them what they can do to facilitate healing and prevent recurrence. We are always changing;
we must strive to achieve balance within motion.
