Acupuncture Newport Coast My Acupuncturist Doesn’t Seem to Age like normal people? It must be their genes. No, it’s not our genes. It is an alteration in our gene expression (epigenetics), endogenous stem cells, how we (some of us) address any slight attack on our health, and salutogenesis. Acupuncture Releases Stem Cells?

I’d argue that high quality acupuncturists who practice primary care not only meet, but exceed the needs of patients. Below
Meeting the Nation’s Primary Care Needs
“Complementary and alternative medicine providers, such as practitioners of acupuncture and oriental medicine, chiropractors, direct-entry midwives and naturopathic physicians, are “generally unrecognized” by, but can fill a greater role in, the national healthcare landscape, according to a whitepaper generated by the Primary Care Project of the Academic Consortium for Complementary and Alternative Health Care.
“Even though significant numbers of people actively use these four licensed disciplines as their first choice for primary care, workforce analyses have not included the potential contributions of these disciplines,” Michael Goldstein, PhD, senior research scientist at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research and whitepaper collaborator, said in a news release.
The authors of “Meeting the Nation’s Primary Care Needs: Current and Prospective Roles of Doctors of Chiropractic and Naturopathic Medicine, Practitioners of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and Direct Entry Midwives” recommend policymakers learn about the “hidden dimension” of primary care and suggest doing so by:
• Funding and engaging research on individuals who use CAM providers as their first choice for primary care.
• Examining the contributions CAM providers make to patient satisfaction, quality of life and cost.”

I recommend discontinuing using the term ‘oriental’ in regards to Chinese Medicine, Japanese medicine, or Korean medicine.I do not use the term ‘Oriental medicine’ in my practice, but since this is is a repost from another website, I have not made any changes.
I do practice primary care; which includes only ordering labs/imaging when it is medically necessary. And, discharging non-compliant patients.
• Examining the contributions CAM providers make to patient satisfaction, quality of life and cost.”
