MEET ED
I have been practicing acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine since 2006, building my career on a foundation that began with years as a sports & orthopedic massage therapist. This hands-on experience gave me a deep understanding of the body’s structure, movement, and healing capacity—knowledge that continues to shape my work today. Over the years, I have expanded my expertise not only as a practitioner, but also as an educator and academic leader, training future clinicians and helping shape integrative healthcare programs across the country.
I am the owner of Vedana Acupuncture & Wellness, with locations in Denver and Parker, Colorado. Our practice treats a wide range of conditions, including fertility, orthopedic and sports injuries, pain, digestive health, autoimmune disorders, allergies, mental health, and chronic stress. My clinical approach blends the time-tested principles of Chinese medicine with modern diagnostic tools, including laboratory testing, to create the most accurate and comprehensive picture of your health. This ensures that no stone is left unturned and that each patient receives a clear, individualized roadmap for their healing.
I believe that every patient deserves safe, effective, accessible, and truly holistic care. My goal is not just to address symptoms, but to understand and resolve the root cause. Healing is a collaborative process—we work together to uncover the layers contributing to your condition and to create lasting change rather than temporary relief.
In treatment, I strive to cultivate an environment of inclusivity, communication, and nonjudgment. I encourage curiosity, questions, and patient empowerment. With the combination of clinical experience, teaching expertise, and leadership in integrative health education, I provide a strong foundation for your growth, the support you need throughout your journey, and the tools to create meaningful, lifelong improvement.
