Recently there’s been some great results with my patients following my:

- dietary no-no’s, and must-do’s.    Acupuncture and herbs to healthfully restore proper digestion, elimination, and assimilation.

I often spend time with all my patients on dietary principles.   Most folks have no idea of the medicinal value of foods, and how its so important to not eat the wrong things, as well as eating the right things.
