About Christian
Christian is a native of Eastern Washington. He developed an interest in bodywork from his involvement in martial arts and sports, which led him to pursue a career in East Asian medicine and acupuncture.

In addition to his acupuncture practice, Christian is a graduate of Bellevue Massage School, now known as Washington Spa Academy. He currently serves as a clinical supervisor and instructor, sharing his expertise with aspiring practitioners.
Outside of his professional work, Christian is dedicated to community service, volunteering with Acupuncturists Without Borders (AWB), providing free acupuncture services to those affected by disasters. He also volunteers with AWB’s Seattle Acupuncture for Veterans, a free community acupuncture clinic supporting veterans, active military personnel, and their families.
