Welcome

I am a holistic nurse, combining a solid background in western health care with a wide variety of bodymind techniques, nutrition and herbal medicines. I have been practicing holistic health care since 1976. I enjoy working with people of all ages and backgrounds who come to me with many different problems and diagnoses. My clients and I are usually able to determine if I am able to be helpful to them within three visits or less.

I believe deeply that our bodies are wise and intelligent beyond our wildest dreams. I have experienced the miracles that occur when we listen to the wisdom of our own bodies and spirits and allow that wisdom to guide our healing work. I work with individuals to facilitate their own understanding of that wisdom and to develop a plan for healing that combines the information from within with realistic self care measures. I then coach people through the transformations that healing creates.

My work is not a replacement for medical care. I work in conjunction with physicians of all specialties, dentists, physical therapists, chiropractors and other bodywork practitioners. I have a wide network of referral sources both in the Ann Arbor area and throughout the United States. By employing the techniques they learn with me, people often find that their need for medical care decreases.

I have helped people to successfully overcome the following problems:

headaches of all kinds
neck and back pain
hip pain
head injury and birth trauma
Temporal Mandibular Joint Pain or Dysfunction (TMJ or TMD)
arthritis and joint stiffness
tinnitus
Bell's Palsy
numbness and tingling of hands and feet
Reynaud's disease
thumb sucking
feeding problems in infants
effects of trauma of all kinds, including surgery

I am an approved practitioner
with the IM Well Clinic at the University of Michigan.
