A Medical System Based on Balance
Balancing Point Acupuncture is honored to provide the East Valley area
with the oldest organized system of medicine still in use today, Traditional
Chinese Medicine (TCM). The most widely known form of treatment is
Acupuncture, which is used in combination with the oldest form,
Chinese Herbs. This combination works synergistically with the body’s
energy and healing mechanisms to facilitate health. TCM not only relieves
symptoms, it restores the body to balance. In Traditional Chinese Medicine,
achieving balance is key to prevention of all disease. Our goal is to introduce
you to wellness system that has been proven to work for many centuries.
TCM Systems of Treatment
Because it has been improved and modified over the centuries, there are many forms of this ancient system
that can be used for diagnosis and treatment. At Balancing Point Acupuncture we use traditional Chinese
acupuncture, Japanese acupuncture techniques, 5-element acupuncture, Chinese massage-therapy (Tui Na),
Moxabustion, Cupping and Gua Sha, Chinese Herbs, Oriental Nutrition and Qi-Gong Exercise to restore and
maintain health. We also use modern advancements with TCM, such as electro-stimulation, auricular acupuncture,
scalp acupuncture and lifestyle counseling to achieve the goal of health.
Treating the Individual
What truly sets the Oriental wellness system apart is the importance of
customized, individualized treatment plans that target the root problem,
therefore bringing longer lasting results. Linda strives to give you ample
one-on-one time to see that your individual needs are met and that all your
questions are answered.
TCM’s Place in Our Modern World
Traditional Chinese Medicine is more than an alternative medicine for disease prevention. We hope to introduce
you to another choice in reaching the balance of health. But we do not replace western medicine and you are
always encouraged to seek western medical treatment when needed. Balancing Point Acupuncture always
strives to work with, enhance and complement Western Medicine. Linda’s background in the western medical
sciences gives her a great appreciation and respect for modern medicine. Our goal is to work with your primary
care doctor by adding supportive TCM therapies to strengthen healing effects. We believe that the combination of
conventional and alternative healing techniques can work in cooperation with each other for the greater benefit of
the patient. After all… the Point is Health!
