This year, I'm invested in me. I'm invested in having fun, and doing the things that fill me up.
I'm getting dirty running trails.
I'm challenging myself to the first 5k I've run since my 20s.
I'm taking my son ziplining.
I'm dancing and feeling joy and love around us on this beautiful island.
And in order to do all of this...I need acupuncture.
I use it to keep my ganglion cyst from getting too big and stopping my running.
I use it to keep my back feeling good and ready for the next big adventure.
I use it to keep my ankles feeling good after a hard fall.
Miraculously, the scrape on my leg in the photo was from rolling my ankle, running down a trail with a 60-lb boy on my back. I (and my son), were fine.
But that's what life is about for me right now. Investing in myself, having new adventures with my kid, and not believing that age is anything more than a number.
Koloa Ziplines was an amazing experience for my son. I loved it too, but those hills were NO JOKE! I slept the rest of the weekend, it seems.

Balance can be challenging to maintain as you age, but it doesn't have to be. These exercises can help you regain better balance, as well as regular exercise. It's never too late to start, and it takes very little of your day.
If you're having a balance problem that is not being alleviated through exercise, please make an appointment. I am happy to assist with troubleshooting other reasons why you might not be able to balance.

This simple, often neglected skill can pay huge dividends later in life.

Art of Peaceful Healing - The Beginning

Self-care is hard. As a mother, wife, and veteran, it’s even harder. How often do we ignore our own needs to help someone else? At the end of the day, do you sometimes feel like “The Giving Tree”: nothing left but a stump in the ground?

Every day I try to be aware of this. Even if it’s only a couple minutes per day I try to care for myself, so that I have enough to care for everyone else in my life. That’s the beginning of the journey towards wellness: making the decision to care for yourself.

WELLNESS IS A JOURNEY, especially for me. I have been all over the world with the Navy. I’ve done a lot of jobs that I was good at, but that did not give me the peace and growth that I needed. In 2011 that began to change with my decision to go to the Institute of Clinical Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ICAOM) in Honolulu, HI.

I didn’t believe in Acupuncture back in the day. But in 2010 I had a back injury and I wasn’t okay with taking muscle relaxants all day, every day. I asked my doctor what other options existed. They referred me to an acupuncturist at Tripler Army Medical Facility. I had a lot of skepticism when I accepted that appointment. But my skepticism started to shift with my increasing range of motion and reduced pain. I was shocked! I thought, “If this works, and I didn’t believe it, what else might work?”

I am grateful for this journey toward wellness, despite its winding turns. If not for the Navy, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to shadow an acupuncturist on my way off of Active Duty. I watched patients faces change as we were able to help reduce their pain, anxiety, stress, and more. I was astounded by how subtle this change was: I did not know what a face expressing pain looked like until it shifted to something more peaceful.

Going to school at ICAOM was a period of growth: lots of shifts in my beliefs and abilities, but we all know growth is hard! I think this was the point where I came into myself, too. I was finally able to be authentic with myself, and it felt great. I was able to be joyful about life, peaceful about change, and open to new experiences.

That’s what makes The Art of Peaceful Healing different. That crazy journey I experienced, doing all sorts of weird and wonderful things? I know you have the same. And sometimes you look back and think “How did I get here?” If I can be part of your journey toward wellness and peace -- growth, patience, and loving the place we’re in -- that’s what I’m here for.

I love my life, and I love being active. Running, hiking, surfing, SUP, hula, gardening, slack key guitar -- these are a few things we do for joy in our life. I want to help you keep doing those things through massage and acupuncture. No matter your age, you should be able to keep doing the things that make you feel ALIVE.

Sometimes we think PAIN and AGE go hand in hand. Maybe they do, but they shouldn’t. I know a whole lot of people like myself that pushed our limits in our 20s, only to have pain in our 30s and 40s. You might have gotten lucky and made it to 50 before it hurt to get out of bed. But now it hurts, and you can either accept it or don’t. Sometimes that’s where we start to see a new perspective: when don’t like the way we feel and we DON’T accept it.

That’s where I come in. After being a sports enthusiast for years, I can relate to your aches and pains. I empathize with your desire to keep doing what you identify with: it’s what makes us who we are. Acupuncture, Massage, Herbs, Fire Cupping - they can all help with pain and finding that balance in your life.

But what about all those other difficulties in life other than pain? What about insomnia, headaches, migraines, nausea, stress, indigestion, bloating, constipation, tinnitus, PTSD, weight loss/gain, and other disorders? I will do my best to help with those, too. I’ve had good results with moderating many problems. Sometimes we are able to get the body fully balanced again, and sometimes we simply provide comfort to improve your overall “Quality of Life.”

I am excited that you are thinking about your own wellness today. I would be honored to be part of your journey.
