Acupuncture

Acupuncture serves as a tool to regulate and balance the energy within the body through external needle insertion. The needle is an ambassador that allows the acupuncturist to deliver the knowledge and technique to benefit and care for patients. Needle technique plays a significant role in treatment and our theory and experience are the guides to optimum care. 

Acupuncture theory is founded on the Traditional Chinese Medicine concepts of meridian and acupuncture points.  The 14 meridians with its branches and points act like the nervous system by connecting the whole body from the skin to muscles, deep tissue, bones, capillaries and organs. Through the meridians, acupuncture reaches every corner of the body and connects them altogether.  Our acupuncturists at Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic are highly trained, professional, and committed to each patient’s health.

Literature over the years have continuously proven the effectiveness of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine in the improvement of fertility in both men and women.  We at Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic provide tailored treatment plans to best fit each patient’s needs. We specialize in supporting and preparing patients for IVF/IUI at different stages and conditions.  We understand that infertility is an extremely stressful experience; therefore we anticipate the subtle changes from both physical and mental angles to handle unexpected situations that can be encountered over the course of treatment.

 

Chiropractic

Dr. Chen is licensed in both Chiropractic and Acupuncture and incorporates his knowledge to provide care for each patient.  Through his experience over the years, he tailors a variety of different techniques to best suit the needs of the patient.

Your spine stands at the center of your body and serves as the structural foundation allowing normal bodily functions.  At Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic, we believe that your spine and its supporting muscles are under constant stress, from long office hours sitting in front of a computer to outdoor injuries sustained from an athletic lifestyle.  This stress accumulates and can lead to pain, stiffness, soreness, and a poor quality of life.

At Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic, we take pride in making you feel welcomed and relaxed.  We understand your health goals first before we decide how to proceed and believe that explaining the whole process is an integral part of our patient-centered care.  We recommend the best treatment plan while taking in consideration what the patient feels most comfortable with.

We offer many chiropractic adjustment techniques and soft tissue therapies. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine or both may be introduced according to your diagnosis.

 

 

 

Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese herbal medicine is most appreciated in helping the body gain back its normal functions without becoming dependent on herbs once the patient has recovered.  Herbal formula plays the role of a mother who protects her child in danger.  Once the danger is over the child can play free and happy again.  Chinese herbal formula treats diseases by adjusting the body’s internal environment to resist and confront external environmental changes.  An example would be like trying to remove unwanted mushrooms on a log of wood.  One could pluck the mushrooms but the environment would still be ripe for them to grow back.  To solve or cure conditions like this, Chinese herbal medicine focuses on the internal environment and condition of the body.  One can only remove mushrooms completely by changing the conditions that allow them to grow.  The practitioners at Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic excel at balancing this internal environment of the body to treat diseases.

 In Traditional Chinese Medicine, practitioners use single or combination of herbs to treat different kind of ailments. A single herb prescription is often used in the diet for maintenance of health, especially in a patient who has just recovered from a previous disease.  A combination of herb formula containing 5 to 12 or more are mainly prescribed for chronic diseases and for complicated conditions to support and treat the underlying disease.  In cases like this, a stronger herbal effect is applied and needed to restore and regulate the body’s function to its normal level.

Our practitioners at Y & Y Acupuncture and Chiropractic have a profound understanding of individual herbs and how they work best in combination to treat crucial conditions.

Our experienced practitioners view each individual as unique and tailor treatment according to Traditional Chinese Medicine theory.  We provide acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine individually or in conjunction, and also offer cupping, nutritional and lifestyle advice according to your Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosis.
