TCM therapeutic toolkit<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2605 Acupuncture, Ear & Scalp Acupuncture for Improved Mental Health
\n\u2605 TuiNa (acupressure, foot reflexology<\/a>, medical\/ortho movement & stretch)
\n\u2605 Chi Kung, aka Qigong (chi or electrochemical bioenergy cultivation: Breathing\u00a0 techniques, Stretches, Exercises)
\n\u2605 Chinese Herbal Formulas
\n\u2605 Diet\/Nutritional consults, with a focus on whole foods (The grocery is the pharmacy.<\/strong>)
\n\u2605 Drug Detox \u2013 National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) Protocol
\n\u2605 Stress Management

\n\u2605 Gua Sha (scraping techniques)\u00a0 \u2605 Cupping\u00a0\u00a0 \u2605 Moxibustion<\/p>\n

Treatments are often modified as the patients\u2019 condition and constitution changes.\u00a0 This is especially true in the treatment of chronic pain and conditions such as mood disorders (e.g., Stress, Anxiety, Depression), allergies, migraines, women\u2019s health (e.g., dysmenorrhea, uterine fibroids, Menopause), and Irritable Bowel Disease(s).<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Since I read the primary literature, i.e., peer reviewed journals,\u00a0 the information you find on this site combine findings from the latest health and wellness research, including\u00a0 both Chinese & Western healing therapies. It may take many years, or even decades, for some of these ideas to become routine clinical practices in Western healthcare.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Community Education & Health Literacy<\/strong>
\nAs part of my community service, open and informal dialogs known as colloquia<\/strong> \u00a0are available to local communities whose members (15-35 people) are willing to work together to achieve better health and wellness, without spending lots of money.
\nLike my previous well attended talks at the Wilsonville Library, we will explore current ideas on the importance of both proper nutrition (e.g., the grocery is the pharmacy)<\/strong> and on participating in regular fitness appropriate physical activities to maintain muscle mass across the life trajectory, and on creating personalized life plans based on an increased awareness of the interfaces between our personal choices and current societal needs.
\nContact the clinic (503-682-9319) if this service is of interest to your community.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

House Call Consults<\/strong>
\nThis premium service, which focuses on improving long term health without drugs, is intended for people who want to rest after the treatments and would like to and avoid leaving their home while learning new self healing skills, including chi kung techniques, which can be demanding.
\nThough it is poorly understood, contemporary science tells us that simple lifestyle modifications can often help reduce the impacts of chronic and resistant conditions.
\nAs such, these services require active participation by the client.<\/strong>\u00a0 My patients, who have overcome conditions like Migraine, conditions that went unresolved for decades in conventional care, will acknowledge that it takes time to learn from the quiet inner voices of our own Body.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Physical Medicine Modalities<\/strong>
\nThe combination of TuiNa (acupressure) and acupuncture is often used to treat a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions, including physical and psychological trauma such as motor vehicle accidents and is often the reason for referrals from other healthcare providers such as DCs, LMTs, MDs, PTs and Psychologists\u00a0\u2013 Counselors.<\/p>\n

Acupuncture is currently being evaluated by groups such as the Department of Defense for stress, anxiety, and Post-Trauma Stress Disorders (PTSD).\u00a0 Ear and Scalp acupuncture treatments are often used for these conditions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Internal Medicine Modalities<\/strong>
\nDynamic diet based therapies leverage our understanding of each individuals’ unique Constitution, i.e., the interplay between the major organs (Zang) to guide them in selecting the foods that will keep their bodies strong and supple, well into their seventies and eighties.<\/p>\n

Chinese herbal medicine enjoys a long history and a well-developed formulary which has been developed over thousands of years.\u00a0 Many formulas have been used for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.\u00a0 For this reason, the theoretical basis of action and the application of this medicine is well developed.
\nToday, premium TCM herbal formulas are prepared following cGMP guidelines, in a manner similar to western pharmaceuticals.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
