Acupuncture: Restoring Balance Naturally

CCCA treats the whole person through a natural and collaborative approach. Let's give some substance to what this means by illustration.

Treating the
whole person is most evident diagnostically. Chinese medicine emphasizes the relationship between the root and branch, cause and effect. For example, "frozen shoulder" can arise as a result of physical trauma like an auto accident; it may arise due to repetitive stress related to work at the computer or painting; or it may even emerge due to pent-up emotional stress, particularly sadness.


An affliction like migraines can be the result of allergies, food or air. Migraines can co-arise with anxiety. They can be the result of vascular compression where the blood is trapped due to structural imbalance. They can also be some combination of the three or other factors, such as low blood pressure. Asthma also has many contributory factors, such as stress, seasonal allergies, or even low-immunity, as in cases of asthmatic-bronchitis from chronic infection.

The point is that knowing the cause and history of a condition is essential to customizing a treatment strategy that will relieve your suffering.
