My experiences receiving acupuncture and cupping treatments from Christina have allowed me to see a true passion and desire to help people. Her practices and work ethic show a true love of her field of work and from that love she has the passion necessary to reach a level of greatness few others can achieve. I would highly recommend Christina to patients that are new to Chinese Medicine as her calm caring demeanor allows her to treat each patient with an individual, personal, and gentle approach.

I began getting acupuncture treatments with Christina when she was at Yo San University. During this time, she shepherded me through a most terrible post-cancer surgery experience and through six months of chemotherapy at Premier Oncology in Santa Monica. I received treatments twice a week while going through the chemotherapy, which reduced the awful side effects tremendously. I have been cancer-free for over 3 years now! I can say without any reservation that Christina is honest, personable, professional, and highly attuned to patient needs.
