For me Middle Path is an approach to a life of balanced and optimal health that utilizes the best of modern and ancient medicine. I do not simply attempt to treat symptoms, nor do I treat diseases. I treat people. My focus in practicing TCM is holistic; I seek to understand the entire person and the health pattern they have. I am interested in being my patients’ partner in meeting their complete health goals. With every opportunity I seek to empower my patients with education about their health and diagnosis. I offer progress reports, give instruction on proper therapeutic stretching, answer the myriad questions they have, provide basic dietary counseling and explain the function of the herbal medicine I am prescribing. I want my patients to make informed, healthy choices and be able to continue their treatment when they are going about their daily lives.
I practice a style of acupuncture that mostly uses points on the body from the elbows to the hands and from the knees to the feet. Very rarely is there a need to remove any clothing at all. Rolling up your sleeves and pant legs is usually all that is needed before beginning your treatment.
Acupuncture has a strong reputation for being safe. Needles are sterile, single use and disposable. Once each point is put into place, you will feel a heavy, dull sensation at each point. This is your body’s way of letting you know the treatment is having an effect. During your treatment you will likely feel very relaxed and possibly fall asleep.
