Sometimes doing what‘s best for the patient will go against dogma and tradition. And sometimes leaning more on science than on dogma will ruffle feathers and contradict the gurus and scholars of Traditional Acupuncture. That‘s OK! There‘s room for many styles and there are enough patients for all of us! I graduated at the top of my class with a Master‘s and a Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Acupuncture. I know the benefits of Traditional Acupuncture for many many conditions. But if you want fast and excellent results treating chronic pain, sports injury, over-use injury, flexibility and mobility, that is what I‘m passionate about and I‘m not going to apologize for great results or for sharing what I‘ve learned from Western Medicine using Acupuncture. The topics here will not be controversial unless you insist on holding onto dogma instead of being open to something new to you and that is based in science.

Interesting Hip Pain Case this Week
Sunday Oct 02, 2022
Sunday Oct 02, 2022
I had a 77yo male with left hip pain, very painful for the past 8 months. Painful to stand and painful to sit on a hard chair. If the pain got very bad he also felt testicular pain.
The hip surgeon who replaced that hip 2 years ago thinks it's coming from his back.
The Physical Therapist (for his back) thinks it's muscular.
I walk through how I was thinking about it and how it was quickly resolved (I hope).

An Interesting Neck Pain, Levator/Trap Pain Case that Was Something Different
Saturday Sep 10, 2022
Saturday Sep 10, 2022
This was an unusual neck pain case that looked like a levator/upper trap pain case but it was something different that I didn't expect.
When it got bad the patient couldn't let her arm hang unsupported without pain in the upper pec and midback and when she raised her arm to get dressed, the neck pain went up to the area behind the mastoid where levator usually causes pain.
