Last day of practice is Sept 17th 2026! 📣

It is with equal parts excitement and sadness that I am announcing the closing of Medicine Custom Made at the end of September 2026.

I will be taking a year — or two, or more? — to travel and see our beautiful country and beyond.

I am not leaving this career altogether. This is a mini-retirement, a pause, if you will, to take some time to adventure and discover. The call of the wild came, and I am answering.

I do hope that, in time, I will return to practice. Maybe with pop-up clinics at first, or eventually by re-opening a permanent space. When? Where? We shall see.

It has been an honor to be a part of so many health journeys during the past few years. Thank you so much for including me in yours.

You can follow my journeys on Instagram and Facebook, Adventure Custom Made, and I’ll announce any pop-ups or clinic openings in the future on my professional page, as always.

Come see me in September before I close and then...

Perhaps we will meet again?

📣 As of the end of September 2026 📣

It is with equal parts excitement and sadness that I am announcing the closing of Medicine Custom Made at the end of September 2026.

I will be taking a year — or two, or more? — to travel and see our beautiful country and beyond.

I am not leaving this career altogether. This is a mini-retirement, a pause, if you will, to take some time to adventure and discover. The call of the wild came, and I am answering.

I do hope that, in time, I will return to practice. Maybe with pop-up clinics at first, or eventually by re-opening a permanent space. When? Where? We shall see.

Until then, here are a few recommendations I can offer in my place:

• Forgotten Muscles Massage and Body Works

• Milwaukee Community Acupuncture

• Foundation Chiropractic

• In Balance Acupuncture & Wellness

• Copper & Sage Wellness

• Heartwood Healing Collective

While no practice is exactly like mine, these talented healers stand out in their own ways. I have appreciated them all so much during my time here in Milwaukee.

I was cleaning up and found my original set of business cards - before I had a practice established, when "Medicine Custom Made" was a slogan and guiding force, rather than the business name it is today.

New in-office herbal support at 🌿

We are now carrying — available in-office for $30 (tax included).

This is one of the classic Chinese herbal formulas most specifically known for helping blood stasis-type fibroids.

In plain language, this formula tends to shine when fibroids present as:
• Firm, dense, or stubborn fibroids
• Fixed masses that do not shift or soften easily
• Fibroids associated with sharp, cramping, or stabbing pain
• Dark menstrual blood with clotting
• Pelvic fullness, pressure, or distention
• Symptoms that worsen before or during menstruation

These are the kinds of fibroid presentations Chinese medicine classically associates with impaired blood circulation or “blood stagnation.”

This formula is especially valued for fibroids that feel “stuck” rather than diffuse, soft, or deficiency-based.

What to expect:
Herbal medicine works gradually and cumulatively. Some people notice improvements in cramping, clotting, or pelvic discomfort within 1–2 cycles, while fibroid-related changes often take several months of consistent use. Longstanding fibroids typically require longer-term support and individualized care.

As always, Chinese herbal medicine works best when matched carefully to the individual. Ask during your next visit if this formula may be a good fit for your presentation 🌱

I began my Pilates journey while in my Master’s program for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Austin. School offered plenty of Tai Chi and Qi Gong, but I knew I needed something more strength-focused. I practiced Pilates mat consistently for over seven years—through my Master’s, my Doctorate, and into my early years in clinical practice. Although I had been active on and off in the past, this is where I mark my true health and fitness journey began. Pilates mat was a lot of fun and I was highly motivated, but it was not well individualized and I slightly mistrained my body for years.

When I moved to Milwaukee, I had fallen out of my routine, and I could feel it. I became sluggish and weak feeling. I found Body Language Pilates and went straight to the reformer. I’m so grateful I did. The level of attention to detail in body mechanics there became more important to me than I could have anticipated.

After about a year, I was stronger than I had ever been. Then I was a passenger in a car accident. My sternum is now permanently deformed, and the pain throughout my body was something I can’t fully put into words.

Even so, I’m deeply grateful I entered that moment strong and healthy. My blood pressure stayed regulated, and I was able to get myself out of the car. The doctors were shocked.

After months of difficult recovery, and once I was cleared to return, I was able to come back to a team at Body Language Pilates that was knowledgeable, attentive, and truly caring. Today, despite everything, I am strong again, stronger than I knew I could be—and proud of it. 

At the age of 41, I am far more active than I was at 21: I roller skate, backpack, canyoneer, and free climb.

It is never too late.

I carry this experience into my work every day. I know what it feels like to be a beginner, to feel strong, to lose that strength, and to begin again—over and over. And I’m here for folks at every point along that path.

Last night's Spring Equinox Movement and Acupuncture Reset was awesome!

Thank you all who were there!

Does anyone know another studio who would host my Acupuncture events? Would you come?!
