Hi, it's nice to meet you! I'm Ryoko Takayama (ree-yo-ko)
For over 25 years, I’ve helped people overcome chronic pain and stress, restoring the freedom and joy that come with a pain-free life.
My journey began in Kyoto, Japan, at the Meiji University of Oriental Medicine, where I earned my acupuncture license in 1995. After years of working in hospitals and treating patients daily, I learned how acupuncture can truly change lives when combined with compassionate care. My passion for healing brought me to the United States in 2001, where I continued my studies at the Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine College in Berkeley, California.
