Our Houston Acupuncture Clinic works with Western Doctors
Integrating Eastern Medicine and Western Medicine with Acupuncture
In Eastern countries, Chinese medicine acupuncture is the primary form of medicine, with Western Medicine serving as a complement. In the US, acupuncture therapy is a complement to your Western Medicine care team. We collaborate with your medical team to optimize your care and address any gaps. Western Medicine excels in treating severe diseases, managing emergencies, performing life-saving procedures, and providing necessary medications. However, when it comes to wellness, they often advise people to address their issues at home. We, on the other hand, offer a more hopeful approach. We strongly believe that many symptoms can be reversed naturally with holistic health and wellness, instilling a sense of optimism in your health journey. Our services, including lifestyle advice, herbal medicine, acupuncture therapy, and cupping Chinese medicine, are designed to provide long-term relief with a short series of visits. We know when to refer people to a physician or specialist and how to collaborate with your doctors to ensure the best care in central Houston.
