This is the "surrounding the dragon" treatment to heal bruises and acute injuries.

Greta Goforth, L.Ac, HHP
I am a licensed acupuncturist and holistic health practitioner with a MSTOM in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I have practiced massage therapy for 7 years, and acupuncture for 4 years. I have provided acupuncture services at Children's Hospital in the chronic pain department, Senior's Clinic, the PB Free Clinic, and the RIMAC physical therapy department at UCSD. Before my career in healing, I studied horticulture, literature, and taught ashtanga yoga. In addition, I am training in ballet and modern dance and also love to surf.

Training in China
During my trip to China, I completed an 4 week internship at Chengdu's Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the Orthopedics, OB/GYN, and Diabetes department.

Herbs, Nutrition, and Yoga
In addition to the acupuncture and massage treatment, I like to prescribe traditional Chinese herbs in a honey-pill form to enhance and strengthen the treatment. Herbs and nutritional supplements are often crucial ingredients in the healing process. I am also a nutritional counselor, trained at the School of Healing Arts, and can recommend dietary and nutritional supplements during the treatment. As a previous yoga teacher, I can also recommend stretches for your individual condition.
