Hello, Iβm Dr. Maria, your favorite acupuncturist and holistic healer.
My Journey to this Healing Practice
In April 2023, I earned my Doctorate in Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine from Pacific College of Health & Science, building on my Masterβs Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Southern California University of Health Sciences (2017). But my journey in Traditional Asian Medicine actually began at Yo San University, where I first discovered the transformative power of acupuncture and herbal medicine.
Before becoming a practitioner in the Healing Arts, I spent a decade advocating for social justice, fighting for immigrant rights, and empowering womenβs rights. While deeply rewarding, this work left me physically and emotionally depleted. It was then that I found Yo San University, where I fell in love with the healing potential of acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. The medicine not only changed my lifeβit healed me.
Now, I invite you to experience this powerful medicine for yourself. Whether you're struggling with a specific health concern or simply seeking a way to restore balance, Traditional Chinese Medicine can help. Are you ready for your own transformation?
