How We Work Together

At Peaceful Traditions, I provide community acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and more! Here’s how I can support you:

Services

Traditional tools for modern health

  • I provide acupuncture in a serene and spacious community room where patients relax in comfortable recliner chairs, fostering a shared healing environment that allows me to provide treatments on an affordable sliding scale. This flexible pricing accommodates varying treatment frequencies and individual healthcare budgets. My goal is to make acupuncture accessible and tailored to each person’s needs, whether you’re seeking relief from acute conditions or need ongoing support.

    Cost: $50 Initial visit, $30-50 follow-up visits. I also accept insurance referrals through American Specialty Health-contracted plans; patients pay only a co-pay for acupuncture (we’ll verify your plan coverage before starting).

  • As a clinical herbalist trained in the Classical Chinese tradition, I design custom herbal formulas using water-based herbal granules (convenient extracts you dissolve in hot water) to target internal disharmony and effect lasting changes. For acute issues, I can often prepare a formula during your acupuncture visit at no extra consultation cost, while chronic or complex conditions benefit from a separate 1:1 consultation to ensure a detailed, personalized approach (see below for details). I also offer a curated selection of trusted Chinese topical and internal herbal products to complement your care.

    Cost: $8-18/week for custom formulas depending on ingredients

  • My 1:1 Consultations, available in 30- or 60-minute sessions, offer a personalized approach for anyone seeking tailored health solutions, whether they’re managing complex chronic conditions with herbs, tackling multiple ongoing issues, or seeking realistic lifestyle changes that fit their unique needs. These visits are ideal for those feeling overwhelmed by health challenges, unsure where to begin, or questioning the effectiveness of their supplement regimen—we’ll sort through the confusion together. You can schedule a consultation at any point in your treatment journey to get clear, individualized guidance and support.

    Cost: $60 for 30 min, $120 for an hour

  • Cupping is a traditional practice found in cultures throughout the world. In modern practice, I use silicone cups to create a gentle-to-moderate suction over tight muscles, especially useful in releasing the upper back and shoulders or addressing ongoing lung congestion. This suction draws blood deep into the tissue, allowing muscle fibers to relax, unknot, and release chronic tension in short, potent 5-15 minute sessions that can break long-standing patterns. For optimal results, I suggest pairing a quick cupping session with a community acupuncture treatment, giving your muscles time to fully integrate the changes before you resume your day.

    Cost: $30/session
