Introducing our new acupuncturist, Maring Higa
Maring Higa, LAc, MSTOM
Acupuncture Associate
"From a young age I was interested in how to achieve optimal health and disease prevention. I studied a variety of different alternative healing remedies including ayurvedic medicine, Tibetan medicine, psychology, nutritional supplementation and Jin Shin Tara. As an athlete I also found that I performed best and recovered faster from injuries when I incorporated natural health, proper nutrition, and visualization techniques. I became an avid believer in the mind, body, and spirit connection.
My personal journey to find optimal health eventually brought me to Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. I was first introduced to acupuncture when my father tried it as a last resort to fight off the final stages of cancer. Though he was not cured, I believe it made a marked impact in his quality of life. This loss for me was a pivotal moment in my life and I then developed a compelling urge to help others on their personal journey towards health."
Maring brings enthusiasm, passion and dedication to each individual patient. Drawing upon her psychology degree from Naropa Univeristy, she takes an integrative approach to healing. She received a Masters of Science degree from the highly respected Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego, California. Additionally, Maring traveled to China where she received a certification in International Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) from Chengdu University.
From a very young age, holistic medicine has been an integral part of Maring’s personal journey. She hopes to share her knowledge and experiences with every patient.
