About Nicholas
How Acupuncture Transformed His Life
As a child Nicholas battled chronic asthma and digestive problems. His Western doctors told him there were no known “cures” for these conditions, but through acupuncture, Nicholas’ life and health were transformed: both as a practitioner, as well as a patient.
Healing from the Root of the Issue
Diseases and dysfunctions are often messages from our bodies that it’s time for something to change. Acupuncture has the power to treat these issues of the physical body, along with those of the mind and spirit. Often it simply requires an energetic nudge for the body to regain balance and find its natural way. Nicholas identifies the root of your issues and helps restore your body’s balance.
“Those who say these conditions cannot be treated have not yet realized their skill.”
From the Chinese medical classic “Ling Shu/The Spiritual Pivot.”
Honoring the Spiritual Process
As a patient, Nicholas felt alienated by the separation of body and mind, and the total disregard of spirit within conventional medicine. So Nicholas began his deep study and practice as an acupuncturist to honor the spiritual aspect of the healing process as taught by the ancient wisdom of Chinese Medicine.
Nicholas uses acupuncture as preventative medicine to keep his and his clients’ bodies strong, mind centered, and to correct imbalances before they manifest as disease.
