*Study and practice of Toyohari acupuncture, 2008 - present.
Toyohari Therapy
Since 2008, my study and practice of Toyohari acupuncture has continued to vitalize and inform my work. Toyohari is a branch of Japanese Meridian Therapy. The extremely refined and gentle Toyohari techniques were originally practiced by blind practitioners in Japan. Today Toyohari is consciously and continuously evolving through empirical study by local Toyohari Branch Associations from around the globe and remains rooted in the foundations of classical Chinese medicine based on the ancient texts of the Nan Jing, Nei Jing, Su Wen and Ling Shu.
Beyond Acupuncture
I live and work in Ballard. My husband, daughter and I enjoy hiking, camping, canoeing and sharing meals with Seattle friends, while remaining connected to our Montana roots.
