Orthopedic acupuncture combines traditional theory with a modern understanding of anatomy, and leads to precise and very effective treatment of musculoskeletal pain (including sports medicine, orthopedic injuries, physical trauma, repetitive stress injuries, chronic pain, etc.). In these treatments adjunctive therapies such as cupping, guasha, or manual therapy are often used as well.
Customized herbal prescriptions are particularly well-suited for treating chronic or complex conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, circulatory disorders, digestive disorders, neurological disorders, etc. The moment you meet Phil, you'll notice his gentle, caring and warm nature immediately. I see Phil weekly at his clinic and have been doing so for over a year.
He's helped me through various ailments: insomnia, jaw pain, SI joint problems, dizziness and more. It's clear how passionate he is about Chinese medicine, how dedicated he is to learn more skill sets as a practitioner, and how lucky patients are to have him as their acupuncturist.

How Acupuncture Works
Report
China's first dynasty was founded after Yu the Great devised a way to create irrigation channels to control flooding and manage crops.
This ability to manage flow within channels to avert disaster and promote health became the blueprint for the Chinese understanding of human health as well.
The basic idea is that if a river has proper and regulated flow, then it remains clean, it does not flood, and all parts of the riverbank are enriched.
If, conversely, flow becomes compromised, then there can be accumulation of debris, local flooding, and areas downstream robbed of proper nourishment.
