I began treatment with Drs. He and Zhong in the spring of 2009. All I wanted was relief from lower back pain. I began to get that with my first treatment. Fortunately, their treatment philosophy and methods aimed at total or Wholistic care. They treated my immediate pain, but offered to improve my overall physical health by balancing my attitude and understanding of how my body functions, nutritional needs, and my daily routine to fit and slow down my aging process. They also encouraged me to utilize other healthy, balancing and strengthening exercises such as Tai Chi and Qi Gong. I discovered as they reduced pain in one area of my body the pain and imbalance showed up in other areas. Treatment became a gradual process of opening up the tense, blocked areas of my body and inaccurate beliefs to release the energy of my body and let it flow more easily and freely. Of course, I did not always follow their advice or did too much or too little of something and recreated pain and tension in areas already treated and improved. However increased levels of comfort and movement have occurred. I am on a maintenance routine of treatment now of twice a month, going more frequently when some pain occurs. I have a more realistic and acceptable attitude toward my body and aging. I am presently 76 years old, but feel years younger.
