Services
Traditional Chinese Medicine incorporates the use of several different treatment modalities, the primary and most popular form of which is acupuncture.
While more and more people in the West have received and benefitted from acupuncture in recent years, it is still a treatment option that is unfamiliar to many people - they may have heard of it but often don't really know what it's all about or appreciate its effectiveness.
The treatment most commonly provided at our clinic is acupuncture.
Acupuncture is the insertion of sterilized, single-use, hair-like in size needles into various points located throughout the body.
Acupuncture Wellness Center opened in November of 2008.
Our services have been very well-received by the Baton Rouge community; in fact, most of our new patients have been referred by someone who has benefitted from treatment at our clinic.
My name is Stewart Sommers, and I am the owner and the primary practitioner at Acupuncture Wellness Center.
I studied a pre-medical curriculum at Southern Methodist University, but I decided after graduation that Western Medicine was not what I wanted to pursue.
My interest in this field began several years ago after learning that acupuncture was sometimes used in China as the only form of anesthesia for certain surgical procedures - more so in the past but still today in some cases.
My mom, an anesthesiologist, was attending a medical conference during which she saw video footage of a surgical procedure being performed using acupuncture anesthesia.
She was impressed, and after she mentioned it to me, I was intrigued.
My intrigue grew into interest as I started investigating the authenticity of acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.
Dr. Baisong Zhong grew up in the Sichuan Provence of China.
He received his medical degree from Luzhou Medical College and a Masters as well as a PhD in Internal Medicine from Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
While there he specialized in the treatment of immune disorders using Chinese Medicine.
His studies were extensive and included not only Traditional Chinese Medicine but Western Medicine as well.
In the teaching hospitals where he was on staff, patients had the advantage of being able to receive medical care in a collaborative fashion.
