Some days you just forget stuff 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️, today it was my sneakers for the gym.
Fortunately, today was all weights, no cardio- not in these chunky monkeys!!

Sweet! You have ear seeds- NOW WHAT?

Your ear seeds have been placed at specific acupuncture points in the ear to help achieve a desired effect- like calm the nerves, promote sleep, decrease pain.

Ear seeds and auricular acupuncture work because your ear is a micro-system for the whole body. Specific combinations of points can help treat a wide variety of concerns within the body. The ears are highly vascular and full of nerve endings which help to communicate with the brain and the rest of the body!

Seeds will typically stay in place for 3-5 days, but can come off sooner due to sweat, oils from the skin and cleaning. So I always tell my patients that the first 24-48 hrs are most important because all the seeds are likely to be present! So press, press, press as often as needed!

Be gentle when washing hair and cleaning your ears to avoid wiping off the seed and little sticker.

If you experience any@irritation, redness, or swelling - go ahead and remove the seeds right away & wash your ears.

As always, feel free to reach out with questions!!

From the Operating Room to my Acupuncture office….What a special evening at the Nemours Children’s Health Gala in Orlando. ✨
I feel incredibly honored to have been part of the Nemours family for nearly 20 years of my nursing career. I spent many of those years working full-time in the operating room, caring for children and families alongside some truly amazing people.
As I’ve transitioned from full-time nursing into pursuing my education and career in acupuncture, I’m grateful that I still have the opportunity to stay connected to an organization that has meant so much to me.
Being surrounded by so many people who dedicate their lives to caring for others was a beautiful reminder of why I chose healthcare in the first place. ❤️
Nemours will always hold a very special place in my heart, and I’m so grateful to have been able to attend such a wonderful evening celebrating the people and mission behind this incredible organization. And to top it off- I got to meet Mr. John Lord!
John S. Lord, former Chairman of The Nemours Foundation’s Board of Directors, who helped guide the growth of Nemours Children’s in Central Florida. His decades of leadership reflected a deep commitment to improving the lives of children and families. We even have an award in his honor!
The John Lord Health Impact Award honors individuals who have made a meaningful and lasting impact on the health and well-being of children and families in Central Florida. It celebrates leadership, generosity, service, and a commitment to improving children’s lives, reflecting the enduring mission and legacy of Nemours Children’s Health.

Here’s to the caregivers, physicians, nurses, staff, supporters, families, and everyone who helps make a difference in the lives of children. 💖

You’ve been asking…and I’ve been listening! 💙

Top 2 most asked questions:
1. Does acupuncture hurt? (See that reel on my page👍🏼)
2. Do you take insurance? ( stay here )

I’m currently working on the process of connecting & working with insurance carriers so I can hopefully make acupuncture more accessible to more patients.

But I want to know what you actually use!

If you live in the Lake Nona or surrounding Orlando area, please feel free to add your comment on this post or send me a message.

Your feedback will help me determine which insurance carriers to look at first as I continue this process.

Thank you for helping me grow Peace Balance Healing Acupuncture!

It’s that time of year again! The super fun craziness of summer is coming to a close.
Now that school is about to start, it’s time to get back into our routines or even create new ones!
Let me help you to calm down, de-stress and re-focus.

Orthopedic care has always held a special place in my heart. ❤️
For the past 20 years as an operating room nurse, I've had the privilege of caring for patients through many different types of orthopedic procedures. Now, as an acupuncturist, I'm honored to continue supporting patients on their healing journey—helping them recover, restore function, and get back to doing what they love.
Orthopedic pain can arise from many causes, including injury, surgery, overuse, repetitive strain, and age-related degeneration.
Acupuncture is a safe, evidence-informed treatment that has been shown to be highly effective for low back pain and can also help with many other musculoskeletal conditions affecting the neck, shoulders, hips, knees, and more.
By helping reduce pain and inflammation, improving circulation, relaxing tight muscles, and promoting restorative sleep, acupuncture supports your body's natural healing process.
If pain is keeping you from living your life to the fullest, I'd love to help you get moving again.

Make time for yourself.
It’s hard to take care of others if you’re not at your best.
Schedule it, plan for it, make the time- its an hour.
Stop making excuses for why you can’t make the time.
Love yourself.
Forgive yourself.
Recharge your battery and start fresh!
