“Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.” Chinese Proverb The mainstream philosophy about our health in current times is that we seek treatment only when we are sick or suffering from any type of malady. Addressing our health this way is like changing the water in a fish tank when we think the water is already dirty enough, or when the fish are already dying. In doing so, we may have clean water, and a much cleaner fish tank – but only for a short period of time, because we are not addressing the root problem, which is the faulty filter. The essence of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the philosophy that we strive for here at DoAcupuncture, is that we address both concerns – at the same time. First and foremost, our goal is help you feel better – to bring your body and your health back into it’s homeostasis, and create the opportunity for your body to heal naturally on its own. This is like cleaning the water. Our long term goal is to give you the tools necessary to help maintain and further improve on your health - on your own, through education, natural medicines, and lifestyle modifications. Here at DoAcupuncture, our philosophy about health is to address the root cause of your condition, “to treat the faulty filter,” and “to teach you how to fish” - so that you can attain a state of health and healing that lasts a lifetime.
