Effective Holistic Care

Eastern medicine (EM) has evolved into an evidence-based, holistic health care system.My approach combines acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, Gua Sha, cupping, moxibustion, herbal medicine, nutrition therapy, lifestyle fine-tuning, and optional functional medicine testing. While I am new to the Roseville and Granite Bay areas, I have 19 years of full time clinical experience. I address acute and chronic pain, athletic injury, inflammation, your mental and physical response to stress, quality of sleep, fertility, pregnancy, hormone regulation, digestion, cancer support, energy levels, neuropathy, Bell's Palsy, and immune function.


Proven Effective and practiced for over 5,000 years, Eastern medicine has an important place in modern health care. According to a study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, 51% of medical doctors understand the efficacy and value of acupuncture, and refer their patients to Eastern medicine more than any other alternative care provider. In the past 60 years many scientific studies have explored how it works and why; see Modern Research below for some examples. 


Scientific research on how acupuncture works


Neurotransmitter Theory: Acupuncture affects higher brain areas, stimulating the secretion of beta-endorphins and enkephalins in the brain and spinal cord. The release of neurotransmitters influences the immune system and the non-nociceptive system. 

Note: Nociceptive pain is the body's natural defense against harmful surfaces or actions. On the other hand, there is neuropathic pain. This pain is the result of damage to the nervous system and is often chronic. Unlike nociceptive pain, neuropathic pain does not need to develop in response to any outside stimulus.


Autonomic Nervous System Theory: Acupuncture stimulates the release of norepinephrine, acetylcholine and several types of opioids, affecting changes in their turnover rate, normalizing the autonomic nervous system, and reducing pain. 


Vascular-Interstitial Theory: Acupuncture effects the electrical system of the body by creating or enhancing closed-circuit transport in tissues. This facilitates healing by allowing the transfer of material and electrical energy between normal and injured tissues.


Blood Chemistry Theory: Acupuncture affects the blood concentrations of triglycerides, cholesterol, and phospholipids, suggesting that acupuncture can both raise and diminish peripheral blood components, thereby regulating the body toward homeostasis. 


Gate Control Theory: Acupuncture activates non-nociceptive receptors that inhibit the transmission of nociceptive signals in the dorsal horn, “gating out” painful stimuli.
