The Han dynasty is equivalent to 206 BCE to 220 CE.   And Chinese had been using acupuncture to treat diseases and symptoms even earlier than the Han dynasty.

Another demonstration of cupping.  

Different color of each cupping mark representing different stage of stagnation within the muscles.  The cupping marks will disappear in a couple of days.  

Cupping is also used to reduce fever and it is commonly used among Chinese parents on their children to remove fever, coughing, whizzing etc. due to a cold infection.

Years ago, some school teachers reported child abuse to social workers when they saw cupping marks on Chinese kids.  After seeing the 2016 Olympic game athletes carrying cupping marks on their back, hope the same joke will not happen again.  

Practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and acupuncture requires in-depth educations.  This photo shows a part of the references book shelves.  

Hands-on experiences builds on classic and modern fundamental knowledge.  Acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine are not just inserting needles randomly or giving out several herbal remedies.  

Several Chinese herbal formulas have been patterned by western pharmaceutical companies.  A lot of allopathic practitioners are learning acupuncture and hospitals have adopted acupuncture for their patients.  

Maybe it is time for you to reconsider what acupuncture and Chinese herbal treatments can do for you.    

Herbal remedies have been used to treat diseases and symptoms in China for thousands of years.  

Practicing herbs in the U.S., is not an easy task.  The herbal supplies must first meet FDA safety guild lines; some of the herbs such as ephedra which is used to reduce asthma and whizzing were restricted by FDA.  

The chemical compounds such as ephedrine and pseudoephedrine found in ephedra were allowed to use in inhaler to reduce breathing difficulties.   Chinese used an ephedra decoction to reduce coughing and whizzing yet the formula is restricted.  A double standards?  

All raw herbs and its powders used in our herbal dispensary were provided by reputable US herbal companies and meet FDA safety guild lines.  

There are two types of herbal extracts:  one is single herbs and the other is pre-made herbal formulas.  

These products were approved by FDA and provided by reputable US herbal suppliers.  

In terms of medical effects from the greatest to the least, biochemical compounds were formed in a herbal decoction which has the best treatment effects.  The second effective treatment is followed by the raw herb powders and herbal extract powders.  The most convenient herbal pills has the least treatment effects.  

This photo shows the herbal extracts which were all approved by FDA.  

This photo shows the raw herbs which were used in Dr. Chin acupuncture clinic.  

Generally speaking, raw herb formula can made up of one single herb or up to 15 or more single herbs.  From patients' feedback, the taste of raw herbs decoction isn't pleasant at all and is not appealing.  Yet it is the most effective remedy.  

Scientific research has shown that within the raw herb decoction, biochemical compounds forms a wave-like structures with either carbon, oxygen or hydrogen molecules at the end.  

Scientific research also shown that more condensation of the herbal formula, the better the treatment effects.  

when you are sick, do you care about how badly does the herbal decoction taste and look or how badly you wish to get healed?

This is a private single treatment room.  It is a spacious and quiet setting in a safe residential neighborhood.  

Comparing to an office in a medical building, this private single treatment room has all settings that are required for medical performance.  

Some patients like a hospital-like setting treatment room, another patients like a very private treatment room.  It is all depends on a personal taste.

However, safety is our major concern and our treatment room is the best.
