Linda is also an AOBTA certified practitioner of shiatsu. She studied at Ohashiatsu Evanston and completed her work in Italy with Ohashi in 2004. She often incorporates shiatsu with acupuncture and other oriental modalities.
Injury and fatigue lead Linda to Chinese medicine. Relief from acute and chronic symptoms gave her first hand experience of the medicine. Her practice focuses on individualized treatments for ailments such as: musculoskeletal disorders, pain management, women and children's issues, gastrointestinal difficulties, respiratory problems, migraines, anxiety, stress, and preventative care.
