Meet Chinese Medicine was My Fate
​
I worked as a software engineer for eight years before I started to get interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). At that time, due to some family health issues, we searched for help from modern medicine and hospitals for three years, but without good luck. I, then decided to study Chinese medicine to find our way out. I see the new hope when I knew more about this medicine. The more I studied, the more I loved TCM. Now, I have been in this TCM journey for more than 15 years. I hope I can bring new hope to more people who are desperate for help yet couldn't find a good solution from the modern medicine system.

TCM has evolved over thousand years. It includes a variety of modalities such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, Gua Sha, cupping, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, etc.. In fact, the use of traditional medicine in the United States has gained more popularity in the past couple of years, as evidenced by Olympic athletes utilizing the technique of cupping at the recent Rio 2016 games and licensed acupuncture becoming legalized in 43 out of 50 states since 2008.
Traditional Chinese medicine is not only an alternative treatment process for certain chronic illnesses, but it is also very useful in helping the balance of the body, thus help improve living qualities.
