Specializing in training acupuncturists and estheticians on the art of microcurrent therapy, I'm passionate about microcurrent, and love what I do. Like acupuncture, interest in microcurrent took a long time to take hold but its time has come.

 

After receiving my acupuncture license in the 1980's, acupuncture was virtually unknown. In my office building, a chiropractor was successfully treating athletes by combining chiropractic treatments with microcurrent. He had an associate in Los Angeles, Neil Goldfarb who had developed unique techniques and protocols for facial rejuvenation with microcurrent. I was invited to learn these technique, and so began my 30 year practice using Microcurrent for Pain and Injury and Microcurrent Facial Rejuvenation.

​

As interest in microcurrent grew, device manufacturers developed proprietary programs for cosmetic use specifically for skincare professionals. I was invited by acupuncture schools throughout the country to teach Microcurrent Continuing Education courses at the following acupuncture schools:

​

• ​​Acupuncture & Integrative Traditional Chinese Medicine, Los Angeles, CA

• Yo San University of TCM, Los Angeles, CA

• Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences, Oakland, CA

• Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, San Diego, CA

• Five Branches University, San Jose, CA

• Emperor's College of Traditional Oriental Medicine, Santa Monica, CA

• University of East-West Medicine, Sunnyvale, CA

• Southwest Acupuncture College, Boulder, CO

• Florida College of Integrative Medicine, Orlando, FL

• Swedish Institute: School of Acupuncture, New York

• New England School of Acupuncture, Newton, MA

• Bastyr University, Kenmore, WA

​

Microcurrent is not a typical subject taught at acupuncture schools, and practitioners often express confusion regarding the different devices such as Microcurrent, traditional TENS and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Helping acupuncturists and estheticians sort out specific microcurrent needs for their practice is very rewarding.
