Care that starts with listening
A conversation, first
Your first visit is an unhurried consultation. We go through your history, symptoms and any test results or diagnoses — in both Western and Chinese medicine terms.
A plan made for you
No two patients receive the same treatment. Your plan may combine acupuncture and herbal medicine, timed around your cycle or your hospital treatment.
Care at every step
We review progress at every visit and adjust as your body responds — and we will always be honest about what treatment can and cannot do.
Kind words about the care here
Notes from patients about their experience of the care they received, shared with their kind permission. They describe personal experience, not treatment results. Read more
