I'm a Biomechanical Engineer, turned Doctor of Physical Therapy, turned Energy Practitioner, and I'm all about trying new things to help myself, family, friends, and clients approach personal challenges in new holistic ways.  I have a young practice in central New Hampshire, where I describe my work as practicing energy work through the lens of a physical therapist. 

Ear Seeding is the newest modality I've started to explore after witnessing the profound and immediate effects a functional medicine physician applying auricular acupuncture had on mitigating headaches and anxiety in AirForce Wounded Warrior athletes. The pivotal experience was while working with an athlete suffering from 8/10 migraine pain.  After my PT/energy work helped reduce the athlete's pain to 4/10, the functional MD placed auricular acupuncture points, which helped to further reduce the athlete's migraine pain to <2/10.  The athlete was blown away with the profound relief she felt within 45 minutes without medication.  I was hooked, and wanted to figure out how I could incorporate this work into my work at home and in my practice.  Acupuncture is not within a Physical Therapist's scope of practice, but I discovered ear seeding is.  I purchased my first multi-symptom ear seeding kit through earseeds.com, and have had a blast applying seeds to myself and others for a wide variety of issues.  It's now an essential part of my first aid kit that I carry in my purse. I love it's effectiveness, ease of use, and accessibility to absolutely anyone.  I'm currently enrolled in the Level 1 certification course, and am excited to learn more and see where this all goes!
