In our practice, we combine several Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) modalities - acupuncture, Chinese herbal formulas, Asian bodywork, nutritional supplements, and dietary and lifestyle recommendations, as well as Aroma Acupoint Therapy with essential oils - to assist your body's natural healing ability to help you recover your health. Prevention of disease is the main and most important principle of our practice.
Unfortunately, this isn't something people are typically taught in modern society. In the U.S., the typical modern thought pattern is to try to fix an illness or injury that has already taken hold: wait until the problem has been a problem for a while, one or several visits to an M.D. or a few M.D.s, one or several medications to control the symptoms, then either "just deal with it" or look for an alternative practitioner when the medications just don't help enough.
By that time, there can be a lot to "undo". TCM is excellent for prevention of disease and for helping to reverse most diseases and disorders that have already started.

Several thousand years ago, East Asian practitioners discovered that the body forms disharmonies as a result of the various physical and mental stresses of life.
Oriental medical theory explains these disharmonies as an imbalance of opposing forces called yin and yang.
This imbalance disrupts the movement of the body's vital energy (qi) along the meridian pathways, which are channels through which the body's energy is thought to flow.
Acupuncture restores the smooth flow of qi.
By inserting and manipulating needles at specific points on the body, we are able to return the body to its natural balance and promote the body's ability to heal itself.
