He is one of only seven people to have completed two years of Bastyr University’s post graduate Acupuncture residency program. Eric also completed an intensive period of study at the ShuGuang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Shanghai China.
Clinically Eric has earned a reputation as one of Seattle’s premier acupuncturists for pain. He has studied with and teaches the systems popularized by Richard Teh-Fu Tan, one of the U.S.’s most successful acupuncturists. The treatment style employed by Eric utilizes primarily distal points, those located below the elbows and knees. As a result patients do not need to disrobe, and the treatments are comfortable and relaxed. These treatments are highly effective for all types of pain, whether heartburn or back pain, sports injuries or headaches, relief is often immediate and significant. In addition to pain, Eric works with patients experiencing a wide range of conditions including: Insomnia, Depression/Anxiety, Reproductive Health Issues, Menopausal Related Conditions, and Digestive Disorders.
