Earn your CEU’s and learn about this very complementary modality!

I am passionate about Functional Medicine. Since beginning my private Acupuncture practice in 2003, I have trained extensively in Functional Medicine. I find it both compatible and extremely valuable in caring for my patients, in tandem with TCM.

As a fellow Acupuncturist, you have probably heard about this modality, which focuses on blood work and lab tests to determine where the patient’s health imbalances are coming from. These diagnostic methods also allow the patient to see first hand the progress of their therapy.

One of my professional goals is to help educate other practitioners, which is why I have partnered with Acupuncture Insights to offer CEU courses in 4 major Functional Medicine topics:

• Evaluation and Management of Cardiovascular Disease

• Thyroid Patterns

• Blood Sugar Patterns

• Red and White Blood Cell Patterns

Click the button below to read more about each course. They are available to be taken any time so you can fit them into your busy schedule.

I hope you find the classes inspiring, and allow you to be an even more well-rounded health care ally for your patients!
