Kwan Tao

Welcome to our practice, where we prioritize your overall well-being by addressing the intricate relationships between your body, mind, and spirit. As an acupuncturist with a background in molecular biology, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals achieve their optimal health and wellness.

My journey began with an interest in human anatomy, physiology, and neuroscience, which led me to explore traditional Chinese medicine. Through extensive training in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, functional medicine, and mindful meditation, I continue to refine my skills to provide the most effective and natural methods for promoting your body's self-healing abilities.

As an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, I believe that the mind, body, and spirit are interconnected and that imbalances in one area can affect the others. My approach is centered around treating the whole person, taking into account factors such as lifestyle, thought patterns, beliefs, and spiritual practices that influence our health.
