I wish that I could express my gratitude for the richness and depth of my journey with this exceptional and traditional medicine.
I never knew that it would include assisting in life transitions; births as an acupuncturist/birth doula, and deaths as an acupuncturist/death doula.
I could not have imagined speaking in the Great Hall, in Beijing, on local television, for acupuncturists from around the world, with health ministers from many countries.
I did not dream that I would compete in martial arts competitions, and have midnight initiations with qigong masters.
I was the first acupuncturist credentialed in a state run hospital in Hawaii, and served as Chairman of the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Washington, DC, as well as President of the Hawaii Acupuncture Association.
In recent years I helped launch a (funded) team of acupuncture practitioners serving the local hospice community, after having served as a volunteer for decades.
My practice is supported by my ancestors and family, by my hands that often know, by ancient wisdom passed down generation after generation.
