Why Traditional Chinese Medicine is Important for You if You Live in Belvedere-Tiburon, California

Why is Traditional Chinese Medicine so important for Belvedere- Tiburon Residents? I've been doing some research. Some things popped up in this investigation that have surprised me. They might surprise you, too.

My study comes from two areas:

1) Over twenty years of experience in working with people from this area, and

2) I've been using web-based analytical tools to better understand the people of the Belvedere-Tiburon community. I wanted to do this because anybody's experience, no matter how great, has its limitations. I'm using these research tools to learn more and to get you the answers you seek. I hope some of these recommendations are helpful to you.

People in the Belvedere-Tiburon community are performers

In general, people in the Belvedere-Tiburon community are active, creative and think a lot. We're performers. This performance leads us to new levels of discipline, discernment and mastery as a lifestyle.

You're doing everything to keep yourself in the zone. This edge of personal performance is what Traditional Chinese Medicine is all about. This is because people just like us developed Traditional Chinese Medicine thousands of years ago.

Who were these people? They were Kung Fu masters, Taoist healers and meditation experts. They tested their edge for their entire lives. They drove themselves to new levels of understanding, performance and mastery. It was their lifestyle.

This demanding lifestyle helped them develop a medicine that had high-level, proactive treatments and attitude. The ancient Taoists had to invent Traditional Chinese Medicine to keep their edge.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is smart medicine. It's smart for us, because we're doing the same thing today that they were doing way back then.

Redefine your edge and discover your creativity

Traditional Chinese Medicine will help you to redefine your edge. It can take you to new levels of brain/body integration, unleash your creativity and take you to the highest aesthetic in your life.

Creativity comes from many areas. These areas are both conscious and unconscious. Traditional Chinese Medicine helps you to create a network of integration within yourself. That network lets you tap into these conscious and unconscious sources. It helps you turn them into integrated resources that serve your creativity.

Stuck in a rut?

What if you're not feeling so high-performance these days? Are you stuck in a rut and can't find your way off the hamster wheel? Then you may need more energy and balance to get you to the next level of your life. Traditional Chinese Medicine treats the whole person. It treats all of you, especially the parts you don't feel so great about.

Belvedere-Tiburon and drug rehab

One way some of us are dealing with stress is with drugs and alcohol. This isn't a surprise. Yet the number of people seeking drug rehab and addiction treatment in Belvedere-Tiburon is far more than you might expect from our small population size.

I believe this points to the pressure we feel to perform.

Drug addiction is a big field. It includes a wide spectrum of substances. Many people come to me to ask about using acupuncture for quitting smoking, to treat alcohol dependence and to break every habit you can imagine. Many even regard me to be a world authority on the side effects of marijuana and the treatment of marijuana addiction.

I want to be up front on this issue. Acupuncture is the treatment of choice for addiction. But I don't treat addictions. I treat people. Sometimes an addiction is a part of the whole picture of a person, but it's not the focus of what I do.

If you want to treat an addiction, there are other acupuncturists who focus on this issue. They've got it down to a science. Your time and money would be better spent with them.

Are you a person who's here on Earth for a reason? Do you need some help to get to where you want to go? Then maybe we can talk.

Belvedere-Tiburon children feel the pressure

Are you a parent? The children in the Belvedere-Tiburon community feel the pressure we put on ourselves more than anyone. This is because they're sensitive.

If you have a family, you know your kids feel stress before, during and after school. It begins with their preschool teacher and continues through high school, college and beyond.

Children are in the process of developing their abilities to communicate. What they can't express in words, they express with their bodies, attitudes and behaviors. If their communication gets frustrated or shut down, it can express itself through illness.

Traditional Chinese Medicine has many unique and important perspectives on childhood illnesses. One of its strong points is its ability to predict and intercept illnesses and challenges before they turn into a problem or an emergency. That's a great gift to give your child.

Belvedere-Tiburon seniors and longevity

What if you're a Belvedere-Tiburon senior? Then you've been living this lifestyle longer than the rest of us.

If you're serious about living a long time and living well, it's going to take some real work. You'll want to start this work as early as possible. Now is the time to apply your energy where it counts.

Chinese geriatrics is superior because of the focus the ancient Taoists had on longevity. These masters analyzed with meticulous detail the symptoms and signs of aging and what to do about them.

As a result, Traditional Chinese Medicine is superior for chronic illness. It's incredible for pain, with little or no side effects. It's as gentle and safe as medicine can be.

Traditional Chinese Medicine helps you move forward

Whatever stage you're at in life, Traditional Chinese Medicine holds important keys to move you forward in the best ways possible. For our high-performance lifestyles here in Belvedere- Tiburon, I believe Traditional Chinese Medicine is unrivaled.
