Earl Hinds  & Jill Janoff

Jill Janoff, B.R.E., M.A., C.M.T. 
In 1979 serious injuries impacted my ability to perform as a professional flutist and I experienced pain 24/7.  In 2002, I discovered help through acupuncture and gentle bodywork techniques.  My pain relief and subsequent healing impressed me at a deep level.  I knew I had to learn this work so I could share it with others.  My own recovery launched me into an unexpected but passionate new career in the complementary healing arts. 
 

Before meeting Earl I was afraid of needles.  He uses a comprehensive form of acupuncture with extremely thin Japanese needles and accupatch adhesives.  My former needle-phobia has been replaced with deep relaxation during my treatments and significant symptom reduction and healing afterwards. 


Patients often comment on the fact that as Earl and I work together, we hold the synergy and balance of Yin and Yang.  The combination of modalities we employ is extremely effective in resolving a large number of injuries and health issues in a very relaxing, rejuvenating manner.

 

I have been a professional body worker since 2003.  I incorporate elements from CranioSacral Therapy, Acupressure, Yin Tui Na, Rosen Method, Reflexology, Treating Fibromyalgia and Understanding Personal Energy, into the work I am privileged share with our patients.

Earl S. Hinds, M.S.T.C.M., L.Ac.
In 1976, I was in two rear-end car accidents during 48 hours.  I had a severe whiplash which kept me in constant pain for 18 months.  I finally decided to try acupuncture.  It took only 3 months of treatment until I was completely free from pain.  My acupuncturist told me that he was treating his father for pancreatic cancer.  His dad had a grapefruit sized tumor on his pancreas.  Using Chinese medicine, the tumor was reduced to the size of a golf ball. This made his dad’s surgery much less invasive and also paved the way for an easier recovery.
 
I developed a passionate interest in sharing the power of acupuncture to promote and restore health and also to help others realize their maximum potential.  This led me first to become a professional body worker in 1979.  I also learned T’ai Chi and traditional Chinese martial arts.  I have been teaching T’ai Chi and Qi Gong since 1993.  I currently teach eight T’ai Chi Classes weekly for the city of Benicia.  In 2005
I obtained a Master of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine.  After completing over 900 clinical hours, in 2008 I received my California State Acupuncture License.
 
Along with Acupuncture, I integrate components from CranioSacral Therapy, Ortho-Bionomy®, Yin Tui Na, Yang Tui Na and Muscle Energy Work.  In 2006, Jill and I met in an Upledger CranioSacral workshop and it soon became obvious that we were meant to work together.  She and I complement each other with our unique skills and backgrounds in body work, Chinese medicine, complementary health care and personal development.
