Our Philosophy

The best acupuncturists not only works with the clear-cut diagnosis, but also takes into account the complex pattern of clues scattered through the human body. The best acupuncturist realizes that each case is unique and approaches each patient with a personalized treatment plan. This plan focuses on improving the overall well-being of the patient, rather than the isolated treatment of specific symptoms or disease. Our methods combine medical knowledge passed down through thousands of years of Chinese medical practitioners with modern techniques, experience, and research. While some patients respond extremely well to acupuncture stimulation, others may not see noticeable results quickly. The reason behind this lies in the fact that acupuncture relies on the body’s innate healing abilities to work effectively. If the body’s functions are too weak to respond to acupuncture stimulation, the results of acupuncture will not be optimum.

From our years of experience, we have developed a system to increase the effectiveness of traditional acupuncture, to help even those people who typically do not respond well to acupuncture. Our system uses specially designed, complementary exercises to awaken and prepare the body for acupuncture stimulation. Through this treatment, we have seen fantastic results that could not have been achieved through acupuncture alone.

Our acupuncture system is not a method or procedure, but rather a holistic philosophy that is applied on an individual basis. Some people respond very well to traditional acupuncture while others may benefit greatly from the combination of acupuncture and special exercises. We evaluate all of our patients as unique individuals and develop a treatment plan that we believe is best suited for you. Such an approach has lead to a high rate of successful treatments for a wide variety of ailments.
