Meet Gwen
I chose to study Chinese medicine because I have always been fascinated by the human body. I knew I wanted a career where I could help others. I find that Chinese medicine satisfies this deep need to be of service to others. Practicing acupuncture allows me to continue to learn and grow through the unique lens of Chinese medicine.
