Our Houston Acupuncture Clinic works with your Doctors
Working with your Doctors
In Eastern countries chinese medicine acupuncture is the primary form of medicine and Western Medicine is complementary. In the US, acupuncture therapy is a complement to your Western Medicine care team. We work with your medical team to optimize your care and fill in the gaps. Western Medicine is terific with severe disease, emergencies, life saving procedures and neccesary medications, however when it comes to wellness they often tell people to go home and deal with it. We help improve the symptoms that people don't want to "deal with." We strongly believe that many symptoms can be reversed naturally with holistic health and wellness and will provide lifestyle, herbal medicine, acupuncture therapy, cupping chinese medicine to resolve those symptoms for long- term relief with a short series of visits. We know when to refer people out to a physician or specialist and how to work with your doctors for your best care in central Houston
