The strength and flexibility of eastern medicine is a direct result of the eastern philosophical views and understandings from which the medicine is drawn. Eastern philosophy provides us with different approaches to viewing our nature, the workings of our bodies, the manifestation of disease and the process of healing. While it is true that no single system of philosophy holds all of the answers, the eastern framework provides us with a wealth of guidance and practical techniques to foster physical and mental health.
People who receive acupuncture will often notice a transformation either of their mind and emotions, their body, their lifestyle behaviors, their concentration, focus and productivity at work, and their relationships with friends and loved ones. Or all of the above.
Chinese medicine offers a truly holistic approach to healing physical health issues. Acupuncture often works quickly—many times health issues will significantly improve within weeks of the beginning of your treatment. We suggest that you try a combination of both acupuncture and Chinese medicine as a first line of defense when tackling a physical health issue. The ultimate goal is to be balanced and whole in life.
