"The physician is only the servant of nature, not her master. Therefore it behooves medicine to follow the will of nature."
-Paracelsus, 16th century physician
Chinese Medicine has the longest history of any medicine practiced today. Through thousands of years of observation, ancient masters discovered several ways in which the laws of nature can be used to explain and predict patterns of health and disease.
Today, Doctors of Oriental Medicine use this knowledge to identify and correct imbalances that are at the root of all illness. Through looking, listening and observing, we gather information about the inner workings of the body in order to gently restore balance using a combination of acupuncture, herbs and acupressure.
Acupuncture is one of the most commonly practiced techniques in Chinese Medicine. It can be used alone, or in conjunction with other modalities. Acupuncture has become one of the fastest growing forms of alternative medicine as more and more people learn of its effectiveness and safety.
