Over the past 35 years, I have successfully treated thousands of patients with many, many different types of illness: to name a few - strains, sprains, back problems, knee and shoulder ailments, carpal tunnel syndrome, impotency, drug, alcohol, and nicotine addictions, hypertension, heart disease, and even cancer. In fact, I have close working relationships with some of the best oncologists in the world. Most importantly, I don't hesitate to refer to other MD, osteopathic, and chiropractic physicians when appropriate and necessary. To get my patients well, I use Chinese and Japanese style acupuncture, auricular therapy, drug detox protocols, sotai exercises, Chinese herbal remedies, and/or functional nutritional medicine. I am quite familiar with the following approaches to acupuncture and the practice of traditional Chinese medicine: Five Element, Manaka, Dr. So’s, TCM, and Toyohari style treatments. I am also well versed in German electro-acupuncture diagnostic techniques (and their limitations). Ultimately, patients are responsible for their own health, and I serve to assist them to regain their health and to stay healthy. I educate patients as to the seven pillars of health: 1) good nutrition, 2) clean air, 3) pure water, 4) clear light (and this encompasses exposure to electro-magnetic fields), 5) adequate exercise, 6) enough rest, and 7) peace of mind. I have written numerous articles on health related subjects, was Contributing Editor of Alternative Medicine magazine, and have done pioneering research on the prevention, causes, and treatment of cancer and heart disease.
