Whole-person care for people who are ready to feel like themselves again

Every Symptom Tells a Story

The body communicates through symptoms, offering clues about what may be happening beneath the surface. I look at your health history, previous results, and patterns across your physical and emotional health to understand how those clues connect. Here’s how I can help you feel better again:

Functional Medicine

When you still feel unwell despite being told your results are “normal.”

Functional medicine looks beyond one symptom or test result to investigate the factors that may be contributing to ongoing health concerns. Your care may include:

  • A detailed review of your symptoms, health history, and lifestyle
  • Advanced blood, stool, saliva, or urine testing when appropriate
  • Investigation into gut, hormone, nutrient, and immune health
  • A personalized strategy based on your findings
  • Clear guidance on nutrition, supplements and lifestyle support

I work with more than 20 advanced laboratories, allowing me to choose tests based on what we need to investigate rather than using the same panel for every patient.

Chinese Medicine + Acupuncture

When your symptoms appear separate but may be part of a larger pattern.
Chinese medicine offers another way to understand what your body is communicating.
Using traditional tongue and pulse diagnosis, I assess patterns involving your qi, blood, organ systems, and emotional well-being. This helps me identify where an imbalance may be occurring and how seemingly unrelated symptoms may be connected.

Based on this evaluation, your treatment may include:

  • Acupuncture using points selected for your individual needs
  • Chinese herbal medicine
  • Lifestyle and dietary recommendations
  • Functional medicine insights when deeper testing is needed

Your treatment is shaped around your symptoms, health goals, and how your body responds over time.

Nambudripads Allergy Elimination Technique (NAET)

When allergies or sensitivities may be contributing to how you feel.
NAET is a non-invasive approach that uses muscle response testing to identify potential sensitivities.
Treatment combines principles from acupuncture, acupressure, kinesiology, and nutrition. It may be used to address sensitivities involving:

  • Foods
  • Environmental substances
  • Chemical triggers
  • Emotional stressors

Your first session begins with testing to determine where to start treatment. Each identified sensitivity is addressed individually, followed by a 25-hour avoidance period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Certain insurance plans that have out-of-network benefits can be utilized for blood tests. I cannot use HMO insurance plans, Medicare, Medicaid, or short-term/casualty plans. Insurance is not used for the consultation visits. 

— Before we have a visit, I like to have an introductory call to assess what your needs are and what tests or services are best for you. 

— The initial NAET visit is done at the office. I muscle test you for “the basic 15” items and treat you for one item. You receive a guidebook detailing what items need to be treated, and you can log your treatment history and improvements in there.  

— The initial functional medicine visit and functional services are typically done virtually. You will have your tests completed first, and then we will have the virtual consultation to discuss the results and functional medicine strategy to balance any observed issues. You will receive copies of everything we will discuss, a detailed report entailing the summary of findings and recommendations.

— You can book an introductory call here: https://mbhmedicine.janeapp.com/

— I worked in a private functional medicine practice from 2011-2022, where I had excellent mentorship.

— I am more than well-versed in quality supplements, evidence-based research protocols, and lab testing. Between 2013 and 2025, I attended 50+ functional medicine seminars to satiate my hunger for knowledge. These seminars were provided by the most cutting-edge nutraceutical companies: Apex Energetics, Metagenics, Numedica, Designs for Health, Xymogen, and Biotics Research. As well as laboratories: Genova Diagnostics, Diagnostic Solutions Labs, Precision Point Diagnostic, Professional Co-op, Spectracell, Mosaic Diagnostics, and more.

— I hold a Master’s degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from the University of Western States (2020) and a second Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (2025) from ATOM.

— I come from a strong family background that honors living a preventative lifestyle. In my family, Chinese Medicine, herbal, and homeopathic medicines are revered as alternative means of healing, and traditional allopathic medicine is used when necessary.

— After the initial functional medicine consultation, I like to have a 15-minute check-in call every 4 or 6 weeks.
Monthly check-in calls help patients hold accountability with adhering to the plan. They are also helpful for those who need a little more hand-holding during the process. In complex cases that involve layered protocols, check-in calls are necessary.

— After the initial NAET visit, I recommend completing at least one treatment a week. NAET involves a series of treatments that build on top of each other. You will also be instructed on how to do self-treatments if your case should call for it.

Your journey to healing starts today.
