Golden Leaf Health Services offers a rare combination of both eastern and western medical knowledge and techniques. Our southwest Denver clinic uses acupuncture and oriental medicine, combined with physical therapy modalities and manual therapy techniques, to provide the patient with a full-spectrum approach to healing. Are you searching for a drug-free means of getting and staying well?
Millions of people throughout the world have used acupuncture for thousands of years as their primary source of health care. Used alone or in tandem with western medicine, it is a powerful means of addressing most health issues. Although acupuncture is the most well known aspect of this medical system, oriental medicine encompasses a full spectrum of health care including herbal and nutritional medicine, massage and manual therapy techniques, and specialized exercise programs.
Various techniques and approaches are used very effectively to treat all age groups, from newborns to geriatrics. If pain, stiffness, weakness, or a structural injury is your primary concern, Physical Therapy may be your (and your insurance company's) preferred form of health care.

The body contains a vital energy called qi ("chee"), which flows along specific pathways or 'meridians' throughout the body.
Each pathway is associated with a particular physiological system and internal organ, and has specific functions vital to maintaining internal equilibrium.
Health is influenced by the quality, quantity and balance of our qi.
Illness occurs when these flows of energy become disrupted or depleted.
Acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into precise locations along the meridians to restore the smooth, balanced flow of the qi, allowing the body to return to a state of health.

The physical body is composed of many highly complex, interdependent systems, any of which can be damaged by injury, overuse, or illness.
Just as the body's qi must be balanced for optimal health, so must the physical systems.
As a physical therapist, I use a wide range of noninvasive interventions to reduce pain and restore optimal function in individuals dealing with injury, disability, or disease.
To this end, I employ a variety of tools and modalities, the most common being heat and cold, water, electrical stimulation, and exercise, as well as massage, joint mobilization, and other forms of manual therapy.

In order to power the body's multiple systems, we depend on a balanced intake of fuel, or food.
Despite our best efforts, it is very difficult to obtain all the nutrition we need from our meals alone.
Many circumstances such as lack of time, level of cooking skills, and outside obligations rob us of our ability to eat properly.
In addition, factors such as environmental pollution, soil depletion, genetic weaknesses or chronic health issues alter the types of nutrients we may require.
Very few of us are adequately trained to understand exactly what our body requires and how to obtain it.
