the challenges we face in today's complex world. My
practice facilitates the healing of physical, as well as emotional symptoms,
and offers the opportunity to explore the origins of these issues.
Clients become aware of unconscious patterns while accessing the body's
wisdom on a physical level through acupuncture. This leads to deeper, longer
lasting relief from common ailments that affect both the body and the mind,
such as:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Stress
- Eating disorders
- Addiction
- Insomnia
- Posttraumatic stress disorder
- Gastrointestinal problems
- Chronic Pain
In a typical treatment session, we start by discussing your reason for
seeking acupuncture as well as your personal health history. We explore
core beliefs and habitual behavior patterns that may be related to your
physical symptoms. As we talk, I also may offer recommendations for diet,
breathing practices, or lifestyle changes, as appropriate. The second
part of the session is usually devoted to a focused acupuncture treatment
that addresses your concerns on a somatic level. The session ends with
a peaceful rest period which allows your body to integrate the effects
of the treatment. Sessions can emphasize one treatment modality over another,
or use a balanced amount of each. Working together, we find the best care
approach for you.
"I have Multiple Sclerosis
and my friend recommended acupuncture to help with some of the symptoms.
Being that Jill is a therapist as well as an acupuncturist, I find it
very helpful that we talk at the beginning of each session about my
feelings and how everything is going ... all of Jill's treatments and
dietary suggestions have helped tremendously!"
— Carmela, Teaching Student
"Jill demonstrates kindness,
compassion, and gentleness in a safe, professional, and warm environment.
She is well aware of issues facing the body and the spirit."
— Damon, Social Worker
"I've been suffering with
chronic back and shoulder pain for about 10 years due to a sports related
injury. After reviewing Jill's holistic approach to healing, I made
an appointment for my first acupuncture treatment. In our first session,
I immediately felt comfortable with her approach of addressing both
the physical and emotional aspects of my injury. During this session
and shortly thereafter, I felt immediate relief and have been improving
ever since ... to the point where I can exercise without pain for the
first time in years."
— Rich, Construction/Development Business Owner
"I started seeing Jill immediately
after a miscarriage to help with physical and emotional healing. I'd
seen several acupuncturists when I was trying to conceive, but —
unlike Jill — nobody ever sat me down beforehand and talked about
what I was dealing with. She is as thorough and compassionate as they
come. Jill adjusts what she does for me each visit based on our discussion,
and therefore I leave each session knowing that, figuratively and literally,
I'm in excellent hands."
— Corrine, Writer
"Over the past two years,
Jill has treated me for chronic muscular tension in my back and also
for recurring respiratory problems. Her approach to care is warm and
personal but highly efficient. I feel the symptoms ease immediately
after the treatments, and I almost always notice a marked improvement
in the condition in the following days. Without fail, I always feel
remarkably relaxed after my sessions with Jill. Acupuncture with Jill
has become an important component to my overall approach to wellbeing."
— Jason, Director
"I saw Jill late in my pregnancy
for labor induction and general prenatal health. She was extremely helpful
and accommodating (including home visits!)."
— Dohra, Professor & Mother of two
