For most of her life, Susana has been interested in the field of natural healing and holistic medicine. She first discovered acupuncture and oriental medicine when she was a busy freelancer in New York City looking for balance and stress reduction for herself. Later, when a close friend was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, she saw how the power of acupuncture and oriental medicine relieved pain and improved quality of life. These experiences convinced Susana of the effectiveness of Oriental Medicine to both treat illness and maintain health. Encouraged by her enthusiasm, she decided to dedicate her life to the practice of acupuncture and the study of Oriental Medicine.
