Traditional Chinese Medicine in California

Acupuncture & Chinese Herbology combine to form the backbone of a complete medical system known as Traditional East Asian Medicine, also known as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

TCM has been used to diagnose, treat and prevent illness for over 23 centuries. It can remedy ailments, alter states of mind, enhance recuperative power and immunity. Other aspects of TCM include diet, nutrition, Tai Qi & Qi Gong.

Traditional Chinese Medicine views the body as a dynamic, interrelated whole possessing a vital energy or life force called Qi (sometimes spelled “Chi”). Health depends upon the free-flow of Qi throughout the body. When dis-ease occurs, specific acupuncture points and herbs are chosen to re-balance the energy and allow the body to heal itself.


Practitioners licensed in California have undergone extensive training in TOM and passed an exhaustive licensing test. To maintain their license, they are required to complete 50 hours of continuing education units in every two-year renewal period.

Acupuncture

Patients can experience the benefits of acupuncture, which involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points along the body's energy pathways, known as meridians, to restore balance and promote the body's natural healing abilities.

As part of acupuncture, we also provide:

  • Tui Na - a therapeutic massage that targets specific areas of the body to alleviate pain and tension.
  • Gua Sha - a technique that involves scraping the skin to improve circulation and release toxins.
  • Cupping Therapy - it uses suction cups to promote blood flow and reduce muscle stiffness.
