Title
The Healing Mind, Using Guided Imagery to Heal Yourself
Description
I refer to my practice as one of Collaborative Medicine because I believe that if we work together, we have the best chance of finding what best supports your health and healing. As a medical doctor and acupuncturist, I bring certain expertise to our collaboration, while you bring your self-knowledge and willingness to learn more about your health.I am a General Practitioner who received my medical degree from the University of Michigan in 1969, and have practiced in Marin county since 1971. I have focused on working with people with chronic health problems, as well as in promoting wellness, for my entire medical career. In addition to my medical training, I have also studied and actively practiced traditional Chinese acupuncture since 1972. I was a founding Board member of the American Medical Acupuncture Association, and am Board-certified by the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncturists. I primarily practice classical Five Elements acupuncture as taught by the internationally renowned British teacher Dr. J. R. Worsley, but also utilize other acupuncture approaches when helpful.My goal is to whenever possible help you find and appropriately use natural, non-toxic methods to support your own innate healing mechanisms. These methods may include acupuncture, nutritional support, stress reduction and mind-body techniques such as self-hypnosis or guided imagery, biofeedback training, bodywork, or some combination of the above. When medicine is required, this too can be an important part of supporting healing.Because of these special emphases in practice, and because of a relatively heavy teaching schedule that requires periodic travel, I strongly recommend that you also have a conventional primary care physician that you can call on in emergencies or in case there is a need for hospital-based care.I am always happy to communicate with other physicians or health professionals involved in your care. I will be happy to recommend a good physician to you if you do not have one at the time of your first visit to me.
