Traditional Chinese Medical Clinic

We are the longest established clinic of Chinese Medicine in Fort Collins! Our doctors have expertis

We are unconditionally committed to providing you with the very best medical care in a gentle, compassionate, and highly effective manner. We have created a setting that is healing, comfortable, and safe. Our goal is to guide patients to their full health potential. We have intentionally placed a limit on the number of patients we see in a day in order to give each patient quality time, without wasting your time in the waiting room. It’s of utmost importance to us to be able to spend enough time with each patient so we can make an accurate diagnosis and devise an individualized treatment plan that can effectively and rapidly bring each patient back to health. We also allow enough time to be able to address any concerns and answer any questions that you may have. A substantial number of the cases we treat in the clinic are patients with chronic and sometimes disabling problems that have not been resolved by conventional medical care.

As acupuncturists, we use words that may sound familiar — like Kidneys, Blood, or Qi — but often they carry deeper, nuanced meanings within the TCM framework. 🧐

Qi is one of the most fundamental concepts in TCM. It’s the vital energy that flows through the body, supports the organs, keeps us warm, and drives all movement and transformation. ✨ There are even different types of Qi, such as the Qi belonging to each organ as well as Yuan Qi (originating from the Kidneys), Gu Qi (from food), Zong Qi (from food and air in the lungs), Ying Qi (nutritive, in the blood), and Wei Qi (defensive, on the body's surface). 😲

We’d love to hear from you: Are there other TCM terms you’d like us to define in future posts? Let us know in the comments! 🌿

In TCM, “Dryness” is the climate associated with Autumn and the Metal Element. 🍂The Metal element’s organs, the Lung and Large Intestine, are particularly vulnerable to dryness. Common symptoms associated with dryness in these organs include a sore, scratchy throat, dry or persistent cough, flakey or itchy skin, and constipation.

We can support the body during this season by:

🍁 Staying hydrated: Sip on warm water, soups, and herbal teas.
🍁 Eating moistening foods: Stewed pears with honey are great for moistening the Lung, while nuts and seeds can help moisten the Large Intestine.

Simple seasonal habits can go a long way toward maintaining balance, comfort, and immunity as the weather cools! ✨

🧣 Scarves are more than just a cozy fashion accessory… they’re a simple way to support your immunity this season!

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the neck is a vulnerable area where Cold and Wind can enter, potentially leading to colds, flu, or body aches. Wearing a scarf helps protect the body’s defensive energy (Wei Qi) from “Wind-Cold Invasion.”

As temperatures drop, keep your neck covered — and honestly, who needs an excuse to wear a cute scarf? 🍂✨

Pumpkin isn’t just for pie and jack-o’-lanterns. 🎃 It’s medicine, too!

In TCM, pumpkin is sweet, warm, and nourishing to the Spleen and Stomach, helping to support digestion, transform Dampness, and replenish Qi as we move deeper into autumn. 🍂

Enjoy it roasted, pureed into soup, or cooked with warming spices like ginger and cinnamon. If you’re carving pumpkins this year, the seeds also make a delicious treat! They’re packed with zinc, magnesium and healthy fats. Roast them with a dash of sea salt or other spices for a cozy seasonal snack. 😋

👻 Happy Halloween from all of us at TCM!�🕷

Reminder: We will be here late into the evening to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters if you want to stop by! The clinic will be closed Saturday, November 1.

Though raw herbs are beautiful, they can be a hassle to make! Thankfully modern herbal practice allows us to deliver their wisdom in a way that’s both powerful and practical. 🌿

Our clinic houses one of the largest granular pharmacies in Northern Colorado, allowing us to create customized herbal formulas for each patient’s unique needs. They are crafted from the same traditional roots, leaves, and minerals, but in a form that dissolves easily in warm water, making them convenient for daily use. 😄

Take a deep breath in… and let it go.

As autumn settles in, the Lung season invites us to practice the art of release; letting go of tension, clutter, and what we no longer need.

Each exhale makes space for clarity, ease, and renewal. 🍂

🎃 Halloween is right around the corner! 🎃

If you’re a long-time patient, you know we love to get into the Halloween spirit with costumes and decorations. 👻

We invite you to stop by the clinic on Halloween night to see our festive setup! Come say hello, grab some treats, and show off your costumes. 🍬

🕸️ Please note: Since we will be celebrating a little late on Halloween Night, the clinic will be closed on Saturday, November 1st.

Eating in harmony with the season is a great practice to support your general health and wellbeing! 🍂

In Autumn, we encourage:

🍲 Focus on warm, cooked foods like soups, stews, and congee
🥕 Include root vegetables (carrots, sweet potatoes, parsnips) to ground and nourish
🍐 Enjoy seasonal fruits such as pears and apples to support Lung health
🧄 Add pungent flavors like ginger, garlic, or onions to stimulate circulation and immunity
🍚 Incorporate grains like rice, millet, oats, barley, or wheat for warmth and gentle nourishment

🌱 Need guidance on adapting your diet this autumn? Our team can help you create a personalized seasonal nutrition plan that complements acupuncture and herbal support.

🍂 Autumn reminds us to pause, breathe, and come back to center.

Whether you’re new to Chinese medicine or a longtime patient, our clinic is here to help you nurture balance and well-being — this season and beyond. 🌿

Holiday season is fast approaching. Make sure you are creating space to care for yourself! Give us a call or go online to get on the books. 📆

❓ Dry Needling vs Acupuncture❓

Both use thin needles, but the training and scope are very different! 🧐

Acupuncturists complete years of study in anatomy, physiology, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, allowing us to safely treat pain as well as digestion, immunity, mental health, and more. Our techniques may include trigger point work similar to dry needling, but they also include many other approaches based in a very nuanced theoretical framework. In short, acupuncture is a complete system of whole-body care. 💚

Dry needling focuses solely on muscular motor and trigger points and is used specifically for pain. In Colorado, it can be performed by medical doctors, physical therapists and chiropractors after a relatively short certification program, often done in one to two weekends. While it is effective for specific muscle issues, it doesn’t cover the full spectrum of whole-body wellness.

We had a great time attending the annual City of Fort Collins Health Fair a couple weeks ago! 😍 This is one of our favorite events to have a table at. It is always fun to talk to new people about how AWESOME acupuncture and Chinese medicine are- and we get to see a lot of our current patients as well! 💚

Just a reminder to City of Fort Collins employees- you still have a couple months to utilize your great benefits before they start over next year! ⏳
