Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine
Licensed Acupuncturist

Liliana obtained her medical degree in her native country, Colombia. Frustrated with the approach of “prescription only” medicine and having experienced the benefits of Alternative Medicine herself, she began looking for holistic ways to treat her patients.

She explored different venues – Foot Reflexology, Homeopathy, and Homotoxicology among others – until she found exactly what she was looking for in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The “mind – body – spirit” approach of Chinese Medicine resonated with her beliefs and gave her the tools she needed to help her patients right away during their office visits. It also allowed her to follow her conscious and the principle of “do no harm”.

Liliana was astonished when she first heard that our bodies have the capacity to heal themselves. It is a matter of stimulating certain points to wake up that capacity, so the body reestablishes its balance. This is the expertise that Liliana has mastered through her training. She helps the body restore the balance which results in both recovery from disease, and fast and effective pain management.

Liliana uses one or more of the following treatment modalities, according to the patient’s needs.

• Acupuncture: Inserting very fine needles the size of a human hair into specific points in the body. This brings about functional balance and restores blood flow.
• Electro-acupuncture: The stimulation of the inserted needles with a small electrical current. For profound analgesia, nerve dysfunction, paralysis, withdrawal symptoms, etc.
• Moxibustion: Promotes the warmth of acupuncture points by igniting Ai Ye close to them. This treatment is especially good for certain diseases associated with coldness in the body and helps strengthen the immune system. Heat lamp: Promotes healing by warming up the body and reducing inflammation.
• Tui-na: Therapeutically massaging specific points, muscles, and tissues, in kneading motion.
• Cupping: This is a stronger form of massage that creates a vacuum in a suction cup placed on the skin. Increases blood flow to painful and tight areas to relax and relief pain.
• Ear acupuncture or ear seeds: Diseases can be prevented or healed by treating points on the ear. Since the ear is a holographic representation of the whole body, the stimulation of specific points with needles or small seeds is therapeutic. Herbal Patches: Promote the movement of blood to reduce pain and inflammation.
• Medicinal Herbs: Prescription of natural herbal remedies used for successfully for thousands of years for a wide range of diseases.

It is the combination of Liliana's knowledge in Eastern and Western Medicine with her warmth, care, and compassion that attracts people to her practice. It is her desire to treat her patients with utmost love and respect.
