When seeking medical attention, our first instinct is usually to turn to our general doctor. However, most recently, people are becoming more curious as to why acupuncture is so effective. Acupuncture is one of the most known techniques that is a part of TCM – which stands for Traditional Chinese Medicine. This alternative to Western-style medicine has been around for thousands of years, and is one of the most powerful healing methods. In combination with acupuncture, other techniques are also used in order to provide the most succesful treatment possible. These additional techniques include: cupping therapy, moxibustion, Chinese herbs or herbal medicine, and Chinese manual therapy, also known as Tuina.

As time passes, one must evolve with the change it brings. This applies to any aspect of our day-to-day life. The holisticclinic in the center of Miami has decided to embrace a new change, as well! It is the honor of management to announce that “Miami Center for Oriental Medicine,” will now be doing business under their new company name – Miami Center for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. The reason for the adjustment is because we are trying to become easy to find – as more and more people are wondering how they can improve their lives through acupuncture treatment! As an acupuncture clinic that is considered a place of healing, they would like to be able to reach as many people possible, and be accessible to the general public who is seeking help.
