To save her grandfather from a less than 10% survival chance after a paralytic stroke, Amy began studying Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), learning multiple modalities, including acupuncture, moxibustion, and herbal medicine. Since then, she has dedicated herself to providing TCM therapy for elderly individuals in her community and in the countryside she visits, treating chronic conditions such as back pain, mobility issues, and insomnia.

​

This website shares the clinical profiles of some of her elderly patients (others prefer not to appear on camera).

TCM Modalities Featured in the Videos
 

Moxibustion

A widely used TCM practice that warms specific acupuncture points by burning dried mugwort (moxa) near the skin to promote circulation and healing.

Acupressure

Similar to acupuncture, but uses gentle fingertip pressure instead of needles to stimulate acupuncture points on the body.

Herbal Medicine

The use of natural herbal formulas to restore balance, support recovery, and improve overall well-being.

Both types of moxibustion are featured in the videos!

Note: While I am trained in acupuncture, my independent therapy for my elderly patients focuses on the above gentle and non-invasive modalities, as they are often more readily accepted by the elderly.
