7. I have used Chinese Herbal medicine for many years.

I have not been able to do it for that last 9 months, due to a major debacle with an attempted career change earlier this year, which backfired. I was paying out of pocket for it, but can't afford it for now.

However, I always found it much more effective, for my needs, than regular western allopathic medicine.

I went to a clinic where the main doctor who owns it is both a naturopath, and an acupuncturist. She went to China to learn acupuncture and TCM (traditional Chinese Medicine).

I loved the treatments, and found them highly effective. When my finances improve, I will go back to using that kind of medicine again. They seem to have more effective treatments for those of us who are living with chronic (long-term) problems. I also like how Chinese medicine is focused towards creating wellness rather than just treating symptoms.

Good luck and good health to you.

My acupuncturist is wonderful! She also looked at my tongue each time. Helped my pain Mnemosyne Dec 2012 #1
