About Elizabeth
I was born and raised in Philadelphia, graduated from Bucknell University with a B.A. and did my acupuncture and herbal medicine undergraduate training at Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, Colorado. The wonderful community of educators at both places continue to inspire me. My style of practice was also formed in great part by my internship at Blue Poppy Institute during my time in Colorado.
I provide TCM-style (Traditional Chinese Medicine) herbal prescriptions while incorporating TCM, five-element, Japanese and meridian based styles into my acupuncture style. I also incorporate five element theory in creating individualized wellness plans for my patients.
CREDENTIALS
NCCAOM board-certified in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine
Licensed by the State Medical Board of Pennsylvania
PRACTICE
I use acupuncture and related modalities to reduce stress, improve circulation, digestion and sleep cycles, to reduce pain and to help patients find that elusive sense of well-being that we all seek to have in our day to day lives. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) also works well together with allopathic medicine to prevent, treat and promote recovery from illnesses, and to reduce side effects from necessary medications. I provide patients with the knowledge, support and tools to make cultivating wellness in their lives something they can do with confidence and ease, with humor and acceptance of being human people who do not need to be perfect to be healthy.
TEACHING
As an adjunct faculty member at the WON Institute in Glenside, I enjoy teaching the growing numbers of acupuncture students in PA. I teach Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture, including Pediatric acupuncture and shonishin in both the classroom and in the student clinic. Here’s a video about the WON Institute by PBS in 2020.
HERBAL DISPENSARY
Herbal medicine is available in raw dried form, granular form, pill and capsule and liquid concentrates and tinctures.
“I've been a patient of Elizabeth's for several years. In addition to her being professional and extremely knowledgeable, her treatments provide an immediate calm, energy, or robust sleep when sorely needed. And with her expertise in Chinese herbs, she was the only medical professional that was able to provide relief to a reaction I was having due to a medical condition. Every visit is like going to a spa--relaxing and rejuvenating for mind and body. I'm eternally grateful for her support in my well-being.”
