言不可治者,未得其术也-《黄帝内经》
All illnesses are curable if we find the way《NEI JING》
The true strength of an acupuncturist or herbalist lies in treating the whole person—not just isolated symptoms or a disease label.
In Chinese medicine, everything is connected. We don’t simply match a treatment to a diagnosis; instead, we carefully observe how symptoms vary, how they manifest in each unique constitution, and identify the underlying patterns of imbalance.
While we are capable of addressing a wide range of symptoms, our ultimate goal is to resolve the root cause of illness. We aim not just for temporary relief, but for lasting transformation—eliminating both current symptoms and long-term susceptibilities.
Our approach is to work with the body, not against it. We support and awaken the body’s innate healing potential, rather than merely suppressing symptoms.
From this perspective, it becomes clear why Chinese medicine can effectively address such a wide spectrum of conditions

Yan Li( MD in China)
Dr. Pan Xiaochuan
Dr. Pan graduated from Heilongjiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1983. He began his career as a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) instructor at the Heilongjiang Forestry Health School. Later, he pursued and earned a Master’s degree in Microbiology at Dalian Medical University. After graduation, he established the Institute of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine at Dalian Second People’s Hospital. There, he initiated a nationally funded research project on the effects of Chinese herbal medicine on the gut microbiome, achieving remarkable results.
In the early 2000s, Professor Pan served as the Dean of the Canadian College of Oriental Medicine. During this time, he focused on studying the four foundational theories of TCM, including Huangdi Neijing (The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon), Nanjing (The Classic of Difficulties), Jingui Yaolue (Essential Prescriptions from the Golden Cabinet), and Shennong Bencao Jing (The Divine Farmer’s Materia Medica), as well as the I Ching (Book of Changes) and ancient and modern astronomical physics. This research culminated in the creation of a self-consistent system for classical Chinese medicine, unified by the concept of the "cosmic double helix field." This system resolved age-old enigmas and established an integrated medical framework of pulse diagnosis, acupuncture, and herbal medicine.
The core technologies of this system include Needle Spirit (Zhenling), Moxa Soul (Aihun), Herbal Essence (Yaojing), and Instrument Spirit (Qinshen). Professor Pan has made outstanding contributions to promoting classical Chinese medicine and Chinese culture worldwide. From 2015 to 2016, he was appointed as one of the first clinical experts by Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.
He has delivered specialized lectures at the United Nations and Harvard University. His published works include Illustrated Classical Chinese Medicine, Needle Spirit, Herbal Essence, and The Tao of the I Ching. His latest work, Instrument Spirit, is soon to be published. This groundbreaking book introduces the pulse-tuning methods for ancient Chinese instruments such as the guqin and guzheng, guided by the Lingshu's Five Tones Theory. Professor Pan has studied and developed the techniques of the Five Tones Theory in the Lingshu for many years. In 2024, the writing and recording of Instrument Spirit’s accompanying music were completed. With the successful development of the Classical Chinese Medicine Pulse Diagnosis Instrument, the technical framework of Instrument Spirit has now formed a complete loop.

Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a history of over 2,000 years. By inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body, acupuncture stimulates the flow of Qi (energy) and blood along the meridians, helping to restore internal balance and activate the body’s natural healing ability.
At our clinic, we practice a unique style of acupuncture rooted in
Dr. Pan’s ZhenLing System (Spirit of Acupuncture) and the
Self-Consistent Medicine system.
These systems are based on classical Chinese principles and offer a highly refined approach to diagnosis and treatment. They emphasize precise pulse regulation, spatial alignment of Qi, and treatment rooted in cosmic and constitutional balance—offering deep, transformative healing.
More than just symptom relief, our acupuncture aims to treat the root cause through a coherent, individualized system that works with the body, not against it. Our goal is to help restore vitality, harmony, and long-term well-being.
Chinese herbal medicine is a vital branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with over 2,000 years of clinical history. At its core, herbal medicine uses customized combinations of natural herbs—called formulas (fangji)—to restore internal balance, target root imbalances, and support the body's healing from within.
Chinese herbal formulas are designed to address the person as a whole
. Each formula is carefully tailored based on individual constitution, symptom patterns, and the dynamic balance of the body’s internal systems.
At our clinic, we follow the Self-Consistent Medicine Systemand
Dr. Pan’s Herbal Pulse Regulation Method, which are rooted in classical Chinese medical theory and refined through decades of clinical experience.
These approaches allow us to:
Diagnose through subtle pulse and tongue patterns
formulas that align with time, space, and constitutional needs
Achieve deep, long-term regulation of Qi, blood, and organ systems
Our formulas are safe, plant-based, and custom-modified for each patient. Whether used alone or in combination with acupuncture, they provide a powerful path toward restoring balance and vitality from the inside out.
Cupping therapy is a traditional healing technique rooted in Chinese medicine, used for thousands of years to stimulate circulation, remove stagnation, and promote the free flow of Qi and blood. By placing cups on the skin to create suction, this therapy draws out tension, toxins, and internal blockages—allowing the body to naturally rebalance and heal.
Cupping is especially effective for:
Muscle tightness and chronic pain (neck, shoulders, back)
Poor circulation and cold limbs
Fatigue and low immunity
Headaches and migraines
Respiratory issues such as chronic cough or asthma
Emotional stress and tension
In addition to traditional fire cupping, we also offer modern suction cupping and moving (sliding) cupping depending on each patient’s condition. Visible red or purple marks may appear after treatment—these are not bruises, but signs of internal stagnation being brought to the surface. They usually fade within a few days.
Cupping is a safe, natural therapy that helps restore vitality, relieve pain, and support deep detoxification—awakening the body’s self-healing potential.
Moxibustion is a time-honored healing technique in Traditional Chinese Medicine that uses the warmth of burning mugwort (Artemisia argyi) to stimulate the body’s energy flow, strengthen immunity, and dispel cold and dampness.
By applying gentle heat over specific acupuncture points or meridians, moxibustion penetrates deeply into the body, promoting circulation of Qi and blood, warming the internal organs, and enhancing the body’s natural healing ability. It is especially helpful for cold-type or deficiency-type
conditions.
Moxa therapy is commonly used for:
Cold hands and feet
Chronic fatigue, poor digestion, and low immunity,
Menstrual pain, irregular cycles, or infertility.
Joint stiffness or pain aggravated by cold and damp weather
Postpartum recovery and general weakness
Preventative care to strengthen overall constitution
In our clinical practice, moxibustion is an important part of the Self-Consistent System, where treatment aligns with seasonal and constitutional rhythms. Moxa doesn’t just warm the body—it nurtures the root.
Moxibustion is safe, deeply restorative, and often described by patients as “a healing warmth that reaches the soul.”
What Is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a natural and holistic system of medicine that has been practiced for over 200 years and is now used globally. It works by stimulating the body’s innate ability to heal itself, using highly diluted natural substances derived from plants, minerals, and animals.
The foundation of homeopathy is the Law of Similars, or “like cures like.” For example, red onion can cause watery eyes and sneezing in a healthy person—symptoms that can be relieved in allergy sufferers by the homeopathic remedy Allium cepa, made from that same onion.
Rather than treating a condition with a standard drug, homeopathy focuses on the unique individual. Remedies are selected based on a person’s full symptom picture—including physical complaints, emotional states, and overall constitution. This personalized approach makes homeopathy especially effective and gentle, suitable for people of all ages, from infants to the elderly.
Our practitioner, David Arnold, practices classical homeopathy
with deep attention to each patient’s story. With experience and care, he works to identify the remedy that best matches the whole person—not just their diagnosis—helping restore balance, energy, and long-term wellness.
