  What is acupuncture?

    
  Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicinal method that includes inserting fine needles into particular sites on the body to activate nerves, muscles, and connective tissues. The goal is to alleviate pain and other health issues by harmonizing the flow of energy, or qi, throughout the body. 
  
  How does acupuncture work? 
  
  According to traditional Chinese medicine, the body is in balance when yin and yang are in harmony. Yin represents the cool, passive principle, whereas Yang represents the hot, active principle. Disease is caused by a yin-yang imbalance, which can result in a barrier in qi flow. Acupuncture is believed to rebalance the flow of qi. 
  
  Safety
•   
  The FDA regulates acupuncture needles as medical devices. They must be sterile, harmless, and labeled for single use by a qualified practitioner. Symptoms may include bleeding, bruising, discomfort, or infection. In rare situations, a damaged needle can harm an internal organ. 
  
  What to Tell Your Provider
• 
  Before receiving acupuncture, inform your provider of any additional therapies or medications you are taking, such as vitamins, herbs, and supplements. You should also inform them if you have a pacemaker, are pregnant, or have any chronic skin conditions.

• Prior to pursuing my doctor’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Herbology, I worked at various Community Clinics and Hospitals as a nurse for many years and became interested in the approach of Eastern medicine thoughtfully combined with Western medicine in the treatment of each patient’s overall condition. It often produced therapeutic results that exceeded expectations. This experience has shaped my dedication in providing a holistic, patient-centered care with the modern integration of Western and Eastern medicine.During my studies, I took my medical internship in China at the Liaoning University. This Internship offered a wonderful experience to learn different Styles of Acupuncture and Traditional Herbal Formulas in the Hospital and Rehabilitation Center of Shenyang City. My passion for herbology grew from this experience and established the belief of curing the body holistically with acupuncture and herbal formulas to speed up the healing process. Eastern medicine is truly a natural science that is grounded in spirit and the heart, a combination that resonates greatly with me as a practitioner. It is my goal to create a safe environment, providing effective clinical services to all patients, and enabling them to envision a natural and healthy life. I am very honored to give back to the community.
