Sara is a student of Qi Gong master Robert Peng. Her training in Qi Gong therapy compliments and enhances her acupuncture practice, and her treatments often bring patients into a state of deep relaxation and balance that is instrumental in creating lasting health.

At Orchard Acupuncture the powerful, time honored methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine are integrated with newer forms of holistic healing and energy transformation yielding impressive results. Practitioners of Chinese Medicine have long understood the benefits of a holistic approach to healing. Sara not only looks at physical symptoms to come to a diagnosis, but also to the emotional state of the individual. Building on this knowledge, the addition of energy reading and transformation to acupuncture creates a truly dynamic and all encompassing approach.

This holistic method of healing creates the opportunity to affect deep and meaningful transformation in our lives that can improve the quality of our thoughts, our emotions and our physical well-being. An integrated mind/body/spirit approach is the first step to true healing.

A Message From Sara...

"I always work with an open heart and with a commitment to the growth and spirituality of my patient and myself. I believe that an integrated mind/body/spirit approach is necessary for lasting results. My focus on energy work sets me apart from other practitioners. The needles are a brilliant tool, but I believe significant healing is achieved through addition of energy transformation. During sessions I work with patients' energy until I feel they are truly balanced. You will notice the difference!

Through this integrated approach, I hope to provide optimum care to anyone who walks through my door. Lets work together to truly transform your life!" -Sara
