Traditional Chinese Acupuncture has been my passion since high school. I saved up a week's allowance to buy a book on Oriental Medicine during my sophomore high school. I still have the book. I also love music and photography. This particular blog, however, hopes to explain how acupuncture can help people restore or maintain their health.
