Personal Note from Paula:
“The reason I chose acupuncture as a profession is the incredible feeling of making a person’s life healthier and happier. There is no better feeling than seeing someone who walks into my clinic broken and downhearted, to seeing them walk out again feeling like a different person and knowing that I did that! I truly love what I do and feel grateful to be able to enjoy my job every day. I also thrive on the challenges it brings to learn and discover just how powerful TCM can be”
Paula’s Mission
“My mission is to care for you and share my knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine and my passion for good health to provide the highest quality of patient care that I can. I want to spread the word far and wide about how acupuncture can treat almost any issue. I sincerely look forward to meeting you and working with you to reach your optimal health goals”
