Acupuncture

Acupuncture is the most recognizable of the modalities in East Asian medicine. Acupuncture is effective for pain, most famously, but is also effective for a broad range of acute and chronic conditions. Acupuncture relies on unique Chinese medical science, Chinese medicine diagnostics, and treatment strategies in order to help patients achieve a state of greater balance and ease.


Community Acupuncture

Community Acupuncture ($30). A 45 minute treatment in a group setting, offered once a month.

Not billable to insurance.

A very limited intake will be taken by your practitioner to assess your needs for the day, followed by insertion of needles and time to allow you to rest.


Chinese Herbalism

Chinese Herbalism is the use of botanical, mineral and ocassionally animal substances from the Chinese pharmacoepia to help prevent and treat illness. Chinese Herbs are usually prescribed in combinations called "formulas" and dispensed in pill, capsule or tea form.

Naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that blends traditional healing methods with modern scientific principles, promoting the body's inherent ability to heal itself. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) emphasize personalized treatment plans that address the root cause of illnesses rather than merely alleviating symptoms. Treatments may include herbal medicine, supplements, dietary & lifestyle advice and homeopathic remedies, but can also include pharmaceuticals or surgical interventions. In Oregon, NDs can function as primary care physicians.

I combine individualized services, high quality organic skincare products and the sharing of radical self care practices with my clients. This combination results in deep relaxation and energetic restoration that ultimately results in resonant skin health.

My main focus is to create a renewing experience by customizing every treatment to fit each individual. I work with my clients to pinpoint an effective and appropriate treatment plan. When leaving Watershed Wellness after having a skin care service with me, I want you to feel relaxed, mindful, and deeply satisfied. I can also help you find an ideal at home skin care regime that fits your needs and preferences.

I have skill and interest in helping people resolve the kinds of chronic, debilitating conditions that they cannot seem to find help for anywhere.

Digestive problem that just won’t go away? Menstrual problems that make every month a living hell? Auto-immune condition with no solid diagnosis? Endless series of colds, flus and allergy attacks that leave you winded and feeling broken? I have experience with helping people in these situations and many more to find lasting health and a better orientation towards their bodies and the healing process using Chinese medicine.

While I do practice acupuncture, my primary focus is on Chinese herbs, and my practice is increasingly oriented towards this work. Herbs and acupuncture are excellent companions. Herbs are a little like getting an internal acupuncture treatment daily - they treat you over a longer period of time and in a gentle, gradual way. Acupuncture is a bit more direct, almost a “bigger dose” of the qi movement or whatever it is we are trying to accomplish, so it can really help things on their way. Both are wonderful!

As an esthetician for 17 years, I’ve curated an esthetics practice that focuses less on pampering spa treatments and beautification, and more on skin care as a basic health right. With a pursuant interest in Hungarian and Korean spa culture, as well as Ayurvedic health systems, I’ve come up with an incredibly attentive hands-on treatment designed to nourish and detoxify your skin at a deep cellular level.

I’m here to help, and I’m obsessed with results and nurturing client relationships for the long-term.

I believe in the body’s innate intelligence to heal and repair itself.

East Asian medicine modalities, like acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, help support the body and aid its healing process. After working 15 years as a nurse, I am grateful to now align with and practice Classical Chinese Medicine here at Watershed Wellness and help bring this alternative form of medicine to the community. Furthermore, I’m thrilled to be apprenticing with Eric Grey, LAc in 2024 to continue building and expanding my knowledge and experience with acupuncture, Chinese herbalism and Classical Chinese formulas.

I employ a variety of different styles of massage and techniques to create a unique healing experience for my clients. Some of my most used styles are Swedish massage, Neuromuscular Therapy and Deep Tissue massage. I also have some training in Craniosacral Therapy and reflexology – I love to incorporating these modalities into my sessions when appropriate.

I am a huge advocate for self care and take regular time to practice yoga, strength training, meditation and martial arts. When I am not giving massage I am spending time with my wife and young daughter. I love being outside, hiking, fishing, playing guitar, gardening, kayaking & cooking with my family.

I am so excited to be a part of the Watershed Wellness community and the chance to use my skills to enhance the wellbeing of the North Coast community!
