Brief Intro

DEIRDRA CLAIBORNE, L.Ac is a LICENSED ACUPUNCTURISTDeirdra was the first acupuncturist in California to work in a major university-teaching hospital, UCSF (University of California, San Francisco), with a staff of professors of medicine, emphasizing the treatment of acute & chronic pain for arthritis, fibromyalgia, sciatica, back, neck & joint pain, tendonitis- commonly involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle, bursitis, and plantar fasciitis. Her vast orthopedic clinical experience of Chinese medicine, and extensive studies in China, guided Deirdra to successfully treat many patients who came to this clinic as a last resort for pain relief from injuries and pain-related conditions.When Deirdra went into private practice, other major hospitals and medical doctors outsourced their patients to her because of her well-known orthopedic pain relief program. Her other specialties include functional medicine focusing on the whole body & mind especially relating to gastrointestinal & digestive conditions, migraines & headaches, allergies, cardio-vascular conditions, respiratory weaknesses, gynecological disorders, and menopause. Deirdra also has a comprehensive herb store & a facial rejuvenation program featuring the latest technology in microcurrent anti-aging treatment for the face with or without needles.Acupuncture Herbal CenterAcupunctureHerbal Medicine & ConsultationCuppingFacial RejuvenationCelluma Low Light TherapyWe would love to make a difference for you.
