Spring is aImost here in the solar calendar, and is already here on the lunar calendar!

Spring allergies don’t start when the pollen count spikes — they begin when your system is already primed to react.

If you tend to deal with congestion, itchy eyes, sinus pressure, or seasonal fatigue each year, the best results often come from starting support before symptoms peak.

As we move toward spring, I’ve opened additional treatment times over the next couple of weeks to help people prepare ahead of the season.

If you’d like to get in front of allergies this year, now is a good time to begin.

Trauma manifests in countless forms—racial, generational, personal, collective—and its effects ripple through our physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies.

As a practitioner of Chinese Medicine, I use tools that can support individuals carrying these burdens. Acupuncture, herbal therapy, and mindful presence can help process stored trauma, reduce hypervigilance, restore nervous system balance, and create space for genuine healing.

At Slow Paths Wellness, care is grounded in creating a treatment environment where all experiences are honored and all stories are safe to share.

Healing isn’t about forgetting—it’s about integration and wholeness. You don’t have to navigate it alone.

Because medicine should feel personal.

Whole-person care means you are more than a chart, more than a scan, more than a list of symptoms. Your story matters. Your nervous system matters. Your pace matters.

Care should feel collaborative. We listen first. We explain what we’re doing. We adjust as your body responds. Treatment isn’t something done to you—it’s something we navigate together.

Healing doesn’t have to be complicated to be meaningful. When the body feels safe and supported, it can begin to move toward balance.

At Slow Paths Wellness, care is unhurried, individualized, and grounded in relationship.

Take a pause today and notice your surroundings.

When you slow down long enough to observe your breath, your posture, and your emotional state, your nervous system begins to shift. Awareness itself can soften reactivity and create space between stimulus and response.

Mindfulness is not about perfection or forced positivity—it’s about helping the body move out of stress patterns and into steadier regulation. From that place, decisions become clearer and growth becomes more intentional.

At Slow Paths Wellness, care supports both emotional awareness and nervous system balance—so you can move through life’s transitions with greater steadiness.

Holistic care looks at how body systems work together instead of focusing only on suppressing a symptom. Sometimes when underlying patterns are supported, pain or metabolic issues improve more than expected.

Surgery and medication absolutely have an important place. But they aren’t always the only option.

If you’re wondering whether a systems-based approach might make sense in your situation, Slow Paths Wellness is here to talk it through.

Sham surgery trials have shown that some of our most popular surgeries are themselves shams. Intragastric balloons “arrived with much fanfare in the

Structural imbalances can affect comfort, mobility, and overall quality of life. Postural changes often create compensations throughout the body, leading to strain far from the original area of concern.

Therapeutic care does more than temporarily reduce discomfort—it can influence how the body organizes tension and alignment. Research shows acupuncture can contribute to measurable improvements in posture and spinal parameters in some individuals, particularly when muscle imbalance and neuromuscular regulation are involved.

Emerging clinical reports suggest that regenerative shockwave therapy (SoftWave) may also support structural balance by improving tissue quality, circulation, and muscular function.

Outcomes depend on individual factors, but meaningful improvements in posture, pain, and movement efficiency are possible.

At Slow Paths Wellness, care is individualized and integrative—supporting your body’s capacity for structural balance and long-term regulation.

Fertility challenges are more common than many people realize. Current estimates suggest that about one in six individuals experience difficulty conceiving.

S***m health contributes to a substantial portion of fertility challenges, which means partner health matters just as much as ovarian or uterine factors.

While reproductive technology continues to advance, traditional approaches such as acupuncture and individualized herbal therapy are often used to support regulation, circulation, and overall reproductive health—whether contributing eggs, s***m, or carrying a pregnancy.

At Slow Paths Wellness, care is practical, individualized, and evidence-informed, supporting each person involved in building a family.
