The Florida College of Integrative Medicine is a full service clinic providing natural therapeutic treatments that integrate traditional Chinese medicine with modern Western medicine, which is open to the public. As the clinic’s patients approach the clinic, they are greeted by beautiful Lake Eleanor and surrounded by many shade trees; while indoors, patients enjoy a soothing atmosphere with tranquil Chinese music in an inviting and comfortable reception area. The on-campus integrative medicine clinic is centrally located (link to locations page) near all major Orlando highways and is easily accessible.

We provide affordable, effective acupuncture to people in Ocean Beach and our surrounding communities. We are devoted to helping people find their new “normal.” BCA is a community business. Our motto is $20 treatments for everyone, everyday. No gimmicks here! We provide over 10,000 treatments a year, and have extensive experience treating all kinds of conditions.

I’m Dr. Shannon Freeman, D.Ac., L.Ac., Eastern Medicine Practitioner. I am a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians (Ojibwe/Cree/Metis) in Belcourt, ND. My heritage and upbringing are much of why I do what I do. I first became a Certified Nursing Aide in 1992. I then became a Licensed Massage Practitioner studying under Zdenka Daucik, a European physiotherapist who incorporated specific, long-lasting, deep treatment work into her practice. I received my Eastern Medicine Practitioner License in 2013. I recently received my Doctorate of Acupuncture from Five Branches University, researching allopathic and Eastern Medicine treatment of Lyme Disease, Epstein Bar, long-haul post-Covid, and any other treatment protocols using acupuncture and supporting healing methods. I am currently in a two-year Doctor of Chinese Energetic Medicine Program (D.C.E.M.) awarded by Bian Hua Gong (The Temple of Change and Transformation) Daoist Temple.

The most common patient complaints are pain, emotional issues, fertility, adrenal fatigue, and exhaustion. Through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I provide Chinese medicine diagnoses, acupuncture, and other TCM modalities applicable to the patient’s condition.

My holistic approach includes creating patient-specific ongoing post-treatment goals and recommendations, including nutritional, dietary, lifestyle, and exercise recommendations for orthopedic issues, pain reduction, and improved function. Also, your treatment plan may include meditation and Qi Gong exercises.

I believe that combining Western and Eastern Medicine is optimal for a patient to heal.

Acupuncture can be a central or integrative component of any health and well-being plan. We know this better than anyone and can make Acupuncture fit into any lifestyle.

I specialize in Kiiko Matsumoto style Japanese Acupuncture, allowing me to treat oftentimes difficult symptoms of patients who haven't received much benefit from Acupuncture in the past.

Please, don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Be well!
