Women during perimenopause and menopause

About Me

I’m a dedicated practitioner and instructor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Qigong. With over 11 years of study and hands-on experience in China, I’ve immersed myself in both the classical wisdom and research-backed applications of Chinese medicine. My passion lies in supporting women through hormonal changes particularly during perimenopause and menopause using acupuncture, herbal therapy, rhythm work, and embodied practices. I believe hot flashes, sleep issues, mood shifts, and low energy are signs your body is calling for gentle rebalancing, not suppression. In my work, I combine syndrome differentiation with personalized rituals and movement to restore harmony and resilience. I’ve contributed to scientific studies exploring how acupuncture can ease menopause symptoms, including work on vasomotor symptoms (VMS) and insomnia. My approach is grounded, integrative, and heart-centered helping you re-align with your body’s rhythms and reclaim ease in this transition.
