He became a devoted student of Dr. Mishra, learning five-element acupuncture, while in clinic assisting with acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, massage, and yoga therapy. John practiced in California before moving to Pennsylvania, opening Bryn Mawr Acupuncture in 1992 to share this powerful form of healing with a new community. He has since successfully treated many conditions, from stroke to sports injuries to the everyday flu. Whatever the ailment, John's expertise as an acupuncturist and his natural gifts as ahealer have helped countless clients live happier, pain-free lives..
