Acupuncture & Acupressure in Pittsburgh, PA
Yasmin completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Kentucky. By the time she was in her last year of college she knew she wanted to become an acupuncturist and practice traditional Chinese medicine. She knew this after reading an article about how an ever increasing number of people were turning to these natural and alternative therapies for their healthcare. What intrigued her the most about Oriental medicine was how it looks at the body from a holistic point of view and gets to the underlying cause of disharmony instead of just treating symptoms.
