Email Subject:     New Patient Inquiry - {your name}
Email Body: 
  1. Your full name.  If you are NOT inquiring for yourself please explain who you are inquiring  for and your relationship to them.  If it is at all possible I prefer to dialogue with the patient directly. 
  2. Your phone number and good times to call
  3. A very brief description of what is ailing you
  4. Your interest in Acupuncture , Clinical Nutrition or Both
  5. Your prior experience, if any,  with Acupuncture, Clinical Nutrition and/or Muscle Testing 
NOTE:  Acupuncture typically requires a minimum of 3 to 5 visits to address moderate disfunctions though you should notice beneficial changes during and after the first treatment.  Clinical Nutrition typically works best with a few months of visits about 3 weeks apart. In some cases it can be just one visit if there's a good remedy for your condition.

Prunedale, CA 
  • 17812 Moro Rd | Prunedale, CA |93907
  • By Appointment Only - Typically available Monday Afternoons, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday Afternoon, and most Saturdays
I am located 20 yards to the right of the Prunedale Public Library.  There is a large marque on my building that says "ACUPUNCTURE"  so I am easy to locate. 

​Parking is plentiful  in front of my building.​
From San Miguel Canyon Road coming from 101, make a right on Moro Road at the Valero Service Station (not shown on map).  Go past gas station and up hill about 200 yards. You will see a business complex on your right with a white commercial sign and listing of many tenants in the complex.   Make that right (road very faded on map ) and take immediate right and you will run into my front door.
