Robert V. Ziemanis, L.Ac. specializes in Shakuju Therapy, a dynamic and elegant Japanese style of acupuncture that promotes deep healing with non-insertion needle techniques. To further support the health and well-being of his patients, he combines this with dietary and lifestyle counseling. He approaches medicine as both a science and an art form, with a conviction in the inherent artistry of a life lived well to its full potential.

Dr. Amsu Bey El is the founder and visionary behind Sustaining Life Wellness Center (SLWC), a root-cause healing clinic located in Winston-Salem, NC. With over 30 years of clinical experience in Chinese Medicine, herbal therapeutics, Electrical Acupuncture Medicine (EAM), and enzyme science, he bridges ancient healing systems with modern diagnostic precision.

SLWC specializes in chronic conditions that have resisted conventional treatments—especially respiratory disorders (COPD, asthma), spinal pain and nerve dysfunctions, migraines and headaches, allergies, diabetes, and inflammatory men’s health issues.

At the core of our healing process is a scientifically grounded formula:

TR + N + ES
(Tissue Renewal + Nurturance + Enzyme Surplus)
This approach targets illness at the genetic and cellular level—restoring damaged tissues, nourishing the body’s internal systems, and activating the enzyme surplus needed for lasting health and longevity.

Every care plan is guided by AcuGraph® meridian imaging, Electrical Acupuncture Medicine (EAM), herbal medicine, and Symptometric Applied Therapeutic Science. This combination allows us to observe patterns, measure progress, and deliver deeply personalized care.

If you're ready for measurable, sustainable change, schedule consultation with Dr. Amsu today.
