Julie received her bachelor’s degree from Emory University in Atlanta, GA in 1995 and then went on to receive her Master’s in Physical Therapy from Marymount University in Arlington, Va in 2001. She worked in several clinics in the Washington DC area specializing in orthopedics, sports, manual therapy, neuromuscular reeducation and has treated all types of patients from kids to athletes to geriatrics. After living her entire life on the east coast, she relocated with her family to the Bay Area in 2013.

Julie has scoliosis, and for years as a child followed the only plan available at that time which was observation only, until she progressed to requiring a brace at age 16. Shortly after her youngest child was diagnosed with scoliosis at age 8, Julie knew she had to do more for her son and pursued the extensive training for the initial course of the Barcelona Scoliosis Physio-Therapy School (BSPTS-Concept by Rigo) in Wisconsin in 2016. She began mastering the concepts and started a program treating scoliosis patients at an orthopedic clinic. She went on to complete the advanced training for BSPTS-Concept by Rigo in early 2020 just before Covid hit.

She also has a passion for posture and has created a posture program where she has taught private and group classes on the benefits of optimal posture and how to achieve it. She has completed extensive training in pilates for scoliosis, and loves to combine all her training with the goal of helping patients to create an awareness of their new posture and alignment through position, repetitions, breathing and strengthening.

Ray Tian’s early years in China were deeply influenced by athletic training. Starting as a competitive swimmer in third grade and then focusing on fencing from sixth to ninth grade, he developed a strong foundation in sports and fitness, which he has maintained throughout his life. Regular exercise has shaped his understanding of health and wellness.

While studying psychology at the University of Arizona, Mr. Tian came to realize that many health issues couldn’t be fully addressed through a single approach. He saw that relying solely on conversation or medication often failed to tackle the root causes of many conditions. Driven by this insight, he chose to further his studies in Traditional Chinese Medicine, combining acupuncture and exercise to provide a balanced, multifaceted approach to health.

Mr. Tian now focuses on integrating Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, and physical training to improve patients’ overall vitality and strength. He also brings his experience to the treatment of internal medicine and infertility, committed to offering his patients comprehensive support and care through these combined practices.
