James Pedersen is a licensed acupuncturist and is board certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and a member of the Illinois Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (ILAAOM). He graduated with honors from the Midwest College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago, which is one of the first established and accredited acupuncture colleges in the country.

James' interest in Chinese Medicine began while studying martial arts. Watching many martial artists control their energy, and the energy of others, James began to see the power of the body, mind, and spirit. In Chinese Medicine, the body, mind, and spirit are the core of healing.

James has always been a believer in the body's own capacity to heal and acupuncture is an effective form of therapy that encourages that natural healing process without negative side effects.

Specializing in sports medicine, pregnancy, arthritis

I have been in practice for over 16 years. I am currently practicing in Saguaro Clinic and specialize in pain relief, working with Veterans on a variety of emotional and physical health issues, elder care, cancer treatment support and fertility support. I have 40 years of experience in herbal and nutritional supplement use, including extensive training in Chinese Herbs and Homeopathic remedies.

I combine a variety of acupuncture techniques with nutritional and lifestyle counseling to support your journey to health. I use a stress reduction tool called the BioscanSRT and a cold laser for a needle-free acupuncture experience.

I also use the Bioscan MSA device, a computerized analysis measuring frequencies from acupuncture meridians on the body. A flat probe is used on the fingers and toes to obtain these readings. Since the acupuncture meridians have pathways to organs alongside the nervous system, we can use this method to reach our goal: a balanced system that responds appropriately to stress and increased health.

A reading of 50 indicates that the organ/meridan is balanced. Readings above or below 50 indicate that a chronic or inflammatory process going on with the organ/meridian. Acupuncture, whole food nutrition, homeopathics, and herbal remedies are used to bring the body into balance once again. This is a comprehensive program for health which requires a commitment to making certain lifestyle changes and regular treatment.

I enjoy what I do and hope you will join us at Saguaro Clinic for support in your continuing journey toward perfect health.
