I am from Japan and trained at a vocational college in Japan for five years to become an acupuncturist. After this I worked as an Acupuncturist, Moxibustionist and Massage Therapist as well as vocational college teacher for four years.
My acupuncture is a combination of Japanese and Chinese style – very gentle safe needling. You will feel a unique sensation to needling when aimed at muscles or trigger points, acupressure points and bone.
If required, I can also use an electrical machine for muscle stress relief and I also use Meridian points for stability of autonomic nerves.
Acupuncture can help to keep you in good health.
In my spare time, I love Yoga and walking, drawing, painting, gardening. I am excited to be living in New Zealand amongst this amazing nature.
Acupuncture may help with the following conditions:
・Injuries to the neck, back and joints.
・Women’s health
・Symptoms of the nose, eyes, ears, mouth
