Chinese medicine gave life-changing relief and put into remission auto-immune digestive issues for loved ones when there were experiencing severe painful flare ups. Because of the profound influence Chinese Medicine has had on my life, I am drawn to and attract patients that have chronic issues where their is an auto-immune, hormone imbalance component.
