Dena K. Gorilik

Acupuncturist

I started my career in healthcare as a Registered Nurse, graduating from California State University Los Angeles in 1989.  Providing years of nursing care and coordinating clinical trials in medical research led me to realize that I strived to play a more profound role in the patient’s healing and wellness.

I decided to expand my career into the holistic medicine field, specifically Traditional Chinese medicine.  After graduating from Emperor’s College of Traditional Oriental Medicine with a Master’s Degree, I became a licensed Acupuncturist and am able to fulfill my dream to offer comprehensive and integrated care.

I continue to work with all age groups, utilizing my medical experience and knowledge of providing treatments such as acupuncture, herbal therapies, diet therapies, massage and lifestyle counseling.  My specialties include injury and surgery rehabilitation, cosmetic acupuncture and stress management.  I also treat a variety of pain syndromes, addictions, digestive and neurological disorders.

It is a great privilege to be a part of Sanare Sanctuary, and a pleasure to welcome you to a journey of natural healing and a more positive state of being.
