My approach to the medicine is very different from most other Acupuncture practitioners. My approach specifically aims at touching the more intimate levels of human experience, especially the life of the spirit, which is one of the original foundations of Oriental Medicine. By adopted these elements of Oriental Medicine of a more metaphysical character we come closer to an understanding our the place in the cosmos and the meaning - be it physical, psychological, or spiritual - of ones moment to moment experience in health or in illness.
Classical Five-Element Acupuncture is much more than a physical treatment, it is a process which attempts to influence the emotions and intellect to act in a harmonious manner in relation with the Five Elements, to make conscious the spiritual and emotional conflicts within and bring the forces which are in conflict into a more harmonious relationship.
I treat the root imbalance, or Causative Factor, not simply the symptom. Classical Five-Element Acupuncture asserts that every human being is born with, or develops early in life, an imbalance in the natural functioning of these Five Elements. This imbalance becomes the root cause of illness of the body, mind, and spirit. My focus is on the core imbalance, the emotional sensitivity and the thoughts and ideas that are the background of illness.
Classical Five-Element Acupuncture offers a continuous exploration in which self-realization can take place. The purpose of Classical Five-Element Acupuncture is for people to develop greater awareness of themselves as spiritual beings. When this occurs, there is a quality of life that has been described to me as "miraculous awareness."
