Acupuncture is only one tool in a much larger holistic medical health care system of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM physicians like myself offers customizes therapy using many various different modalities as shown in picture to treat diagnosis/ imbalances. Sometimes Feng Shui, health coaching or TCM counseling, meditation, massage are added to the patient already assign modalities. Just today I had to educate the patient that acupuncture is not separated from TCM, it is its principal therapeutic tool. In TCM, often times herbal prescription and acupuncture prescription are combine together to give a stronger effect because together they create a synergistic effect. Learn more at our workshops. Refer to FB postings or the Event page. Center for Integrated Medicine, since 1994.

Center for Integrated Medicine, Visalia. The energy of the Spring and its relationship to the Liver. Its holistic physiology in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) of the Liver differs than that of the structural anatomical organ in conventional medicine. In TCM, there are extensions of the functions of the Liver that dictates how natural medicine imbalances are diagnosis.
• The Liver is responsible for the smooth flow of Qi and blood in your body. It controls the volume and smooth flow of blood in your vessels and also stores the blood.
• The eyes are the sensory organ related to the Liver. If you have any eye issues, including blurry vision, red or dry eyes, itchy eyes, it may be a sign deep down that your Liver is not functioning smoothly.
• The tendons are the tissue associated with the Liver. TCM says that strength comes from the tendons, not muscles. Be like the cat that is strong, agile, and flexible, not the cow, which has huge muscles but little real strength.
• The taste that corresponds to and supports the Liver is sour. If you crave sour foods, that may be your Liver communicating that it needs an extra boost, so be sure to include high-quality vinegar and sweet and sour recipes in your diet.
• Anger is the emotion associated with the Liver. If you are often irritable, get angry easily, have trouble unwinding from the day’s activities, have trouble reasoning or going with the flow and letting things go, you are experiencing a Liver function problem. Experiencing these emotions chronically or excessively can seriously unbalance the function of your Liver.
In summery if you constantly crave sour foods, or are under a great deal of stress and feel angered easily, then your Liver function needs support. Make your patient appointment today. (TCM World Foundation)

March is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) month. Two elderly female TCM physicians, age 96 and 106 years old still in practice seeing patients. How amazing is that! The mindset and energy of these two ladies put us to shame. Listen to the wisdom of these two Chinese medicine doctors. Dr. Chen (on the left) is 106 years old said in the video that " Living in isolation and/or lying in bed is not Longevity". Dr. Chai (on the right) is 96 years old said in the video that "She always seek the beauty in things such as her work, endurance, active mind and her experience". Many in the United States only think of March as Irish heritage month, but it is also significant as Chinese Medicine month. Learn more to stay healthy from the Center for Integrated Medicine. Book your appointment today or sign up for our workshops.
