  • What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?
    Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic approach to health care that has been practiced for thousands of years in China. It includes a range of practices such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping therapy, and tuina, all aimed at balancing the body's energy (Qi) to promote health and well-being.
  • How does TCM differ from mainstream Western healthcare?
    TCM focuses on treating the whole person and maintaining balance in the body, mind, and spirit. It uses natural therapies and emphasizes prevention, whereas Western medicine often focuses on diagnosing and treating specific illnesses and symptoms with pharmaceuticals and surgery.
  • How should I prepare for my clinic appointment for treatment?
    Eat a light meal at least 30 minutes beforehand to prevent dizziness and maintain stable blood sugar levels during treatment. Wear the clinic-provided attire for optimal access to acupuncture points. Afterward, wear loose, comfortable clothing for your comfort.
  • 您的诊所的治疗流程是怎样的?
    After consultation, we start with a relaxing hot pack to ease muscles and improve blood flow. We then use infrared light therapy to warm tissues and stimulate acupuncture points and meridians, enhancing treatment effectiveness. Following this, your personalized treatment may also include tuina therapy, acupuncture, cupping, body vibration, or other methods based on your condition. Finally, we apply herbal plaster to further aid in treatment and enhance therapeutic benefits.
  • How can I be sure the TCM doctor can address my concerns?
    Ensure the TCM doctor has extensive experience, proper credentials, and a proven track record of successful treatments. Dr. Jung, has over 30 years of experience, extensive training, and a record of successful treatments. Dedicated to helping patients, Dr. Jung offers compassionate care and communicates clearly about treatment outcomes.
  • What is acupuncture and how does it work?
    A powerful TCM method practiced for thousands of years, acupuncture involves inserting needles into specific points on the body based on symptoms. This stimulates nerves and muscles, increases blood flow and endorphins, corrects imbalances, and promotes holistic healing with fewer side effects than many Western treatments.

  • How many acupuncture sessions will I need?
    The number of sessions varies based on your condition and how your body responds. Many patients notice improvement after just 3 sessions.
  • Does acupuncture hurt?
    The needles used are very thin, so most people feel minimal discomfort, like a slight tingling or small pinch. Patients with serious blockages or critical conditions may experience heightened sensitivity or discomfort due to their body's response.
  • What should I do after an acupuncture treatment?
    Take a shower after 5 hours. Eat fruits and vegetables for vitality. Rest and stay warm. Have a light meal.
