What's your business, and who are your customers?

Chinese medicine clinic in Edina, MN, offering acupuncture, Chinese herbs, nutritional counseling, and online telehealth consultations. We treat back pain, sciatica, migraines, vertigo, fibromyalgia, IBS, insomnia, anxiety, and many other health problems. We treat men and women who want to optimize their health with drugless, alternative therapies.

Tell us about yourself

For more than 28 years, I have helped people transform health problems into solutions for attaining better health. I was inspired to study acupuncture and Chinese medicine after being struck by a car and subsequently cured of back pain with acupuncture. I am a licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, Chinese medical herbalist, and certified Life Coach.

I offer complete health care with acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and nutritional counseling, and I have an active private practice in Edina, MN. Licensed by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice and certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. I've been featured in The New York Times, Mpls St. Paul Magazine, Fox 9 the Buzz KMSP TV, UPN29 TV, Qi Journal, the Phoenix Newspaper, and many more.

What motivates me every day is to be of service to my fellow man and woman by offering the best health transformational experience.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Being asked to be the personal health consultant to a Chinese billionaire in Silicon Valley for one week.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Many people who are not self-employed think, "that must be great, you can work whenever you want." The truth is they don't know how much work it is. Even when I am done working on patients, there are still things to be done, such as ordering supplies, researching patients' health problems to get the best result, and continuing education. One cannot stop learning.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

Continue to learn more about your field. Endeavor to be the best in your field. Study with the best of the best no matter how far you may have to travel to find them.
