She earned her Masters in Traditional Oriental Medicine from Emperor's College in Santa Monica, California, in 2005. Her studies encompassed Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, massage, nutrition, and herbal medicine. In addition to her practice at Healing Hands Wellness Center, she is a technical supervisor at Emperor's College, teaching student interns proper needling techniques and clinical protocols.

As a practitioner, Marguerite is committed to responsible, integrative health care, and always refers complicated cases to the appropriate health care providers. It is her pleasure to help you achieve radiant health.
