Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in San Jose

I help restore balance in the body through acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine - for weight management, allergies, stress, digestive issues, chronic pain, migraines, chronic fatigue syndrome, women's health and urological concerns, and smoking cessation. Before moving into acupuncture, I spent many years practicing Western medicine as a physician, which lets me combine a modern medical approach with traditional Eastern treatment methods.

I am a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist (L.Ac.), a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM), and hold a Master of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Before that, I practiced for many years as a physician in Russia, focusing on internal medicine.

Rather than simply chasing symptoms, I try to find the true root cause of an ailment and take an integrative approach to treating the body, mind, and emotional wellbeing together. Chinese medicine is not just a form of treatment but a way of thinking and a way of life, and I try to share that understanding with every patient. Appointments are available Monday through Saturday, 9:00 am to 7:00 pm, by appointment only.
