Acupuncture
Dr. Tan’s Balance Method Acupuncture is based on the acupuncture systems rooted in the concept of healing the body by balancing the meridians. This method is rooted in the balance of the five elements and eight principles of Oriental medicine. Dr. Tan is the first person to assemble this body of information into a systematic method and translate it into the English language.

Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine is an ancient, highly elaborate system of natural healing that has been used by billions of people for all kinds of health conditions in Asia. Seattle Acupuncture Wellness Center has a comprehensive herbal pharmacy of patents formulas and
granulars.
Chinese herbal medicine is a wonderful complement to acupuncture treatment, as it works on different substrates in the body and maintains continuity in therapeutic intervention. Acupuncture works on the level of energy by harmonizing the flow of Qi through the main energetic pathways of the body. Quantum physics has verified that our entire material world is comprised of energy, as is the human body. Acupuncture is so unique because it is one of the few therapies that can manipulate the flow of energy in the body and mind to produce a therapeutic effect. In acupuncture theory, until chronic health conditions are addressed on the energetic level, the root cause or problem will often be neglected.
Chinese herbs work more on the level of blood and manifest physiology. The herbs contain macro and micronutrients that can have specific therapeutic effects on certain organs of the body, such as the liver or kidneys. By working on both the immaterial and material levels, the treatment of acupuncture with herbs is much more effective and lasting.
Nutrition
We believe that nutritional guidelines need to be specific to you as an individual. There is no 'one size fits all' approach to the best way to eat because each of us has different constitutions. Some people should be eating a raw food diet based on their constitution (yin deficient--dry and over heated), while others need to eat mostly cooked foods (yang deficient--run cold and depleted).
We assess your overall bodily type to recommend better suited approach to your condition and life style.
