What's New

The New Los Gatos Clinic is going great! I warmly invite you all to come.

As part of my ongoing collaboration with Lee Holden and the Chi Center my San Jose area practice is now at a wonderful clinic in Los Gatos. I will be continuing to offer acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and Qigong instruction.

You can click on the Link below for more information about the new clinic, for maps, driving directions and scheduling.

Pacific Healing Arts in Los Gatos

 

Acupuncture
My acupuncture sessions will continue to focus on the simultaneous clearing of physical illness and pain, with the elucidation of meaning and purpose in life.


Herbal Medicine
Recently in my clinical practice I have been seeing great results with Chinese herbs, and I would say that my skill with Chinese herbalism has increased in the last year. I will continue offering customized Chinese herbal formulas at Pacific Healing Arts.


Qigong Instruction
I continue to offer regular Qigong classes, including a new class at the Chi Center
in Santa Cruz.

In collaboration with Lee Holden and Larry Goldstein of Cypress Health Institute I will soon be teaching a 250 Hour Medical Qigong training Course. I will send out information about this course in the next few weeks.

The 2010 Group Juice Fast

Its that time of year again, when the body and soul yearn for cleansing and detoxification.

We will be conducting another group detoxification from Friday May 07 to Monday June 07.

This will be a 30 day cleanse using the Ejuva detoxification system, with individual modifications as needed. We have secured a group price of $239 for the cleanse, which is a really good price as it normally retails for $325. This cleanse is a four week cleanse culminating in a seven day juice fast.

Participants of the group cleanse will have access to a yahoo group to share information, recipes, experiences etc. . I will also conduct live teleconference support to answer any questions 2 mornings a week, and I will be available by phone or email should any questions arise.

The group cleanse will cost $289. This cost covers $239 for the Ejuva cleanse and $50 for the support services.

What I Do

I am an acupuncturist. I also teach acupuncture. Living in California I am licensed by the state to practice acupuncture and oriental bodywork, to use Oriental herbs in treatment, to teach Qigong (breathing and moving exercises) and to dispense dietary and lifestyle advice. All of this I do.

 


Sacred Acupuncture

Sacred Acupuncture is my version of acupuncture. As a patient I think you will find this type of acupuncture can do anything that acupuncture is well known for - it can relieve pain, improve energy, turn around many chronic disease patterns.
In addition to this, in the process of healing the physical, Sacred Acupuncture can provide healing for the emotional and Mental components of our nature.
As a patient in a Sacred Acupuncture treatment you can learn a lot about yourself, and this normally shows you how to stay healthy.

Here is a 30 minute response to the question "What is acupuncture?" and "How does it work?" Just click on the link and your browser  should be able to play the mp3 sound file, you can also download it to your computer or mp3 player:

"What is acupuncture?"      a sound file.

 

 

A Sacred Acupuncture treatment

In the treatment we will talk for a while, then I will take the pulses and perform a Medical Qigong assessment. Now I can understand the illness or problem in your body from the Sacred Acupuncture perspective.

I will tell you what I am finding and we will perform the acupuncture treatment. During this treatment you lie on a comfortable treatment table. Ultra-thin, sterilized acupuncture needles are inserted into safe points on your body. This is often a deeply relaxing and nourishing experience. During the treatment we might talk some more and I might ask you to breath in a certain way or focus your awareness on something. After some time we will have accomplished a healing and I will let you rest with the needles in for a while. Most people fall asleep or get very relaxed or energized in this section.

I, or an assistant, will take the needles out, and when you come out of the treatment room we will run through any herbal treatment options, dietary changes or Qigong and Shengong exercises to do. The herbs are very safe and very healing. They come in the form of pills or capsules or teas. You will be shown any Qigong exercises specific to your condition. Do you want to recover? Then take the herbs, do the Qigong exercises and come to your acupuncture appointments - and you will get improvement.

 

The Benefits of Sacred Acupuncture

 

 

Many patients come to Sacred Acupuncture to relieve their pain or recover from an illness. They go on to discover that not only does Sacred Acupuncture relieve pain, but that it also strengthens their immune system and boosts their energy. Some patients feel it increases their personal development or 'spiritual growth'. Some patients find that it reduces their stress and keeps them feeling in balance or at peak performance. For these reasons many of my patients come in periodically for maintenance Sacred Acupuncture treatments.



How often will I have to come for treatment?

That's up to you. Do you want to recover from your pain or illness or imbalance? I will recommend a course of treatment for you. Typical courses of treatment might be 6-12 sessions, one week apart. For acute and/or painful conditions a few sessions in quick succession is often useful to break up the acute pattern. In this way we get quicker results.

Sometimes patients decide to continue, in order to deepen the benefits. In this case I may recommend a series of twelve sessions spaced approximately one week apart.

 


How much does it cost?

A new patient consultation and treatment is $125

A regular treatment is $88

 

Sacred Acupuncture is often reimbursable by medical insurance and workers compensation insurance.

More information about Sacred Acupuncture

The understandings of Sacred Acupuncture can be explored on my other website by using the link above. Currently these teachings are best suited to acupuncturists or people interested in healing.

I teach ongoing classes at Five Branches University and weekend seminars in Santa Cruz and at Emperors College of Traditional Oriental Medicine   in Los Angeles.




Semester classes

I teach Sacred Acupuncture at Five Branches University  in Santa Cruz.
For the Spring 2010 Semester at the Five Branches Santa Cruz campus I am teaching:

The Acupuncture Channel Interrelationships

 

 

Sacred Acupuncture  Seminars

I teach seminars on Sacred Acupuncture. These seminars are designed for acupuncturists . CEU credits are available for California. There are currently seminars scheduled on a number of subjects. Each seminar is given at Five Branches University in Santa Cruz and at Emperor's college in Los Angeles.

The above link opens to a list of currently scheduled seminars. There are course descriptions attached, with locations and dates of the seminars. To enrol in one of these seminars contact either Emperor's college in Los Angeles or contact me directly for the Santa Cruz seminars.

 

 

Five Stars Healing Seminars

This is my latest venture. This is a seminar for anyone interested in staying healthy or healing themselves. Humans have five 'bodies'. A physical body, a Qi or energy body, a Shen or Mental body, a Ling or spiritual body and an aspect which could be called the Tao or universal 'body'. Five Stars healing Seminars delivers you a powerful technology to heal each of the first four bodies, and to access the fifth. For any chronic illness or long term dis-ease, healing has to happen at multiple levels. This seminar will give you powerful tools that I have spent 30 years studying and using from various healing traditions from Europe, China, Japan, India, South and North America.

More details will become available soon.
