Hello, I’m Farrah
Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac) & Holistic Nutritionist/Chef.
I’ve been a gardener for a long time, too.
In the garden and in nature, nothing exists in isolation. Obstructions, diseases, and poor growth in the garden are best assessed by a detailed understanding of history, patterns, climate, and relationships. A holistic inquiry into your own health is similar in in its breadth of scope.
After all, you are nature too.
My work is informed by over a decade of study and practice in Holistic Nutrition, Ayurvedic Medicine, Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, Herbal Medicine, Organic Gardening, Yoga, and Qi Gong.
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
Acupuncture is a supportive therapy meant to compliment a holistic approach to health. Acupuncture is accessible for people of all life stages, ages, and abilities.
Acupuncture is the insertion of thin needles into the surface of the skin to connect with a network of information known as Qi. An acupuncture appointment may also include chinese massage therapy, cupping, gua sha, qigong exercises, diet and lifestyle recommendations, and moxibustion.
People are drawn to acupuncture because it is restorative, relieves tension, promotes circulation, eases discomforts, calms the mind, and promotes healing.
Holistic Nutrition
Holistic Nutrition aids in the self-development of skills and education to problem solve your unique barriers to eating well.
Good nourishment is not a trend, a formula to mimick, or a standardized equation. Good nourishment can be a positive and reliable source of support and strength to carry us through the experience of life-cycles.
Holistic Nutrition is integrative in nature. An appointment balances nutrition science with the social, cultural, familial, relational, habitual, economical, emotional, spiritual, and ecological aspects that relate to food and eating. Our food choices and habits are unique to us and this is a good thing.
