Dr. Rebecca’s journey into acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine began during her time as an All-American athlete at UC San Diego, where she majored in Global Health. After years of struggling with menstrual irregularities, poor circulation, and chronic injuries—and not finding lasting relief through conventional medicine—she discovered the powerful benefits of acupuncture, cupping, and gua sha through the Integrative Health Recovery Athlete Center. These therapies not only improved her performance but also sparked her passion for holistic healing.

Inspired by these experiences, she went on to earn her Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, reconnecting with her ancestral roots and deepening her appreciation for traditional healing practices. Rebecca brings the same dedication she once had for her teammates into her clinical work—offering personalized, whole-body care for each of her patients.

Her specialties include sports medicine, women’s health, chronic illness, and cosmetic acupuncture, including microneedling, facial cupping, gua sha, and facial massage. With her background as an elite athlete, she brings a unique and functional approach to healing—focused on not just symptom relief, but true balance and long-term wellness.
