By integrating Functional Medicine and Neuroscience we can utilize modern laboratory readings and see your unique situation also from this lens. Then we can discuss a personalized approach towards your optimum health utilizing the best of both worlds. I am also happy to interface with your Western providers to collaborate and create a health plan for you that can synergize both treatment methods when applicable.

Did you know that there's a form of acupuncture without needles? That's why kids call me the Tickle Doctor. Did you know that your child's allergies or eczema can be resolved through a holistic approach? Children tend to respond rapidly to these methods and often these problems become a thing of the past.

Denise is the greatest! I met her through one of her Reset programs and was so impressed with her calm demeanor and sensible bedside manner. I am in Chicago, so we met remotely a number of times and she helped me work through some ailments that I wanted to tackle during the pandemic.
Each time I met with Denise, I learned something new and walked away refreshed and energized. She's not to be beat! Love her love her!

Denise is quite thorough with her diagnosis, and skillfully precise with her treatment. I would recommend Denise to anyone needing to ease into the world of Acupuncture, or someone needing a more advanced diagnosis/approach.

Denise is serving as an experienced guide for me. She’s a storyteller who weaves eastern medicine, nutritional suggestions, meditation and movement into a gentle offering. This was my third meridian reset with Denise and I consider her part of my healthcare team of wise women!

My family had a wonderful experience with Dr. Daniel. She is so warm, knowledgeable, and down-to-earth. I brought my infant daughter for a treatment to help her with her weight gain. She was nursing well and often but just staying so skinny! Dr. Daniel was wonderful with her. No needles, just hands on and very gentle. After just a few sessions, my three month old had shed the cough that was lingering weeks after her cold (bonus!) and finally started sporting a baby double chin. I told the rest of my family about our experience and my mother, father, husband, and myself all went to see Dr. Daniel

I'll begin my review by acknowledging that I rarely, if ever, post my opinions but in this case, I want to share what a game changer Denise's treatments have been for me. As a migraine sufferer, she has tailored a treatment specific to my symptoms and, as a result, I have seen a dramatic decrease in the frequency of my migraines. This reduction in migraines has resulted in a significant upgrade in my quality of life. Above and beyond focusing on my migraine symptoms, Denise has taken a holistic approach to my overall health and wellbeing. I can't recommend Denise more highly.

Denise is by far the best acupuncturist around, so the space she has created on her deck in the hills is a welcoming portal to treatments you need. It is private, quiet, serene, and protected from the elements. I can strongly recommend both Denise and her current treatment space; together they offer a wonderful option for initiating or continuing treatments. Call her!
