Well Woman
Optimizing a Woman’s Health
I love my job because I enjoy helping women of all ages be the healthiest they can be. I have supported many women through health challenges from breast cancer to eating disorders and enjoy taking care of them and standing by them as they make the choices necessary to heal themselves.
Our patients appreciate that we are not a bunch of scarily macrobiotic women here at the YinOva Center. They know that we, like them, are juggling complicated lives whilst trying to support our own health and the health of our loved ones. We have struggled with our weight, dealt with chronic illnesses and worried about our parenting. We have supported ailing parents and paced the floor with teething babies. In short we are like you. We understand your health journey because we are navigating our own. You won’t find self-righteousness at the YinOva Center. You will find a group of compassionate women who are only too aware of their own weaknesses and flaws but who are using the wisdom of Chinese medicine to heal themselves and others.
