Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use ultra-thin disposable needles to stimulate Qi energy flow through meridians. This triggers endorphin release for pain relief while addressing chronic conditions like migraines and arthritis. Patients experience improved wellness through this 3,000-year-old practice adapted for modern healthcare needs.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy creates localized suction to increase blood flow and relieve muscle tension. This complementary treatment works with acupuncture to address musculoskeletal pain and improve circulation. Patients benefit from combined therapies without additional charges for enhanced therapeutic outcomes.
Pain Management
Specializing in chronic pain management, our treatments target conditions like sciatica and fibromyalgia. By restoring Qi balance and stimulating natural painkillers, 90% of patients report significant improvement. We offer non-invasive alternatives to pharmaceuticals and surgical interventions for lasting relief.
Emotional Wellness
Our emotional wellness treatments address stress, anxiety, and depression through meridian stimulation. With 70% effectiveness rates, these sessions promote nervous system regulation and emotional balance. Patients receive holistic care combining TCM principles with modern psychological understanding.
Respiratory Support
Respiratory treatments focus on improving lung function and alleviating conditions like asthma. By unblocking Qi pathways and reducing inflammation, patients experience easier breathing and fewer symptoms. These sessions combine traditional techniques with evidence-based medical approaches.

I figured insurance wouldn't cover it but I was desperate for some relief & healing. I had already gone to my primary care doctor (steroids & muscle relaxers were prescribed) and orthopedic doctor for a second opinion. After two weeks I figured I would try to see if acupuncture would help with the pain and stimulate healing. I am a believer! These O.M.D.s are professional, explain what they are doing and why, and give recommendations for me to do things at home well. I am finally making strides in healing & am thankful I tried it out because they have made a huge difference!

I was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal breast cancer after being cancer free for more than 18 years. I decided to take a holistic approach to healing my body instead of the conventional treatment of chemotherapy and radiation that might extend my life. The husband and wife team at this clinic have played an instrumental part in my healing. Recent pet scans show that the cancer cells in my body are either shrinking, died or are dying. Nutrition, God and Good medicine from these people have helped all the pains in my body go away, increased my energy levels and given me back the natural endorphins needed to feel well and healthy.
My husband has been on this journey with me and his health is also improving. We both have been able to eliminate prescription drugs from our lives and have experienced amazing results. Traditional western medicine and doctors have been confounded with the results. I highly recommend these doctors and thank them for all they are doing to heal our bodies naturally.

Dr. Wang is a lifesaver when it comes to getting rid of body pain. He has gotten rid of my knee pain that an orthopedist clinic couldn't touch, and he's helped my copd breathing. The clinic is very clean and neat, quiet, and private. Thank you to all!

I developed a cough right after Christmas that wouldn't go away. I went to Chinese Acupuncture & Natural to see if they could help, the first time I've ever had acupuncture. I had six sessions, acupuncture and cupping, and I feel so much better. Thank you so much! I highly recommend this place.
