Classical Chinese Medicine

Classical Chinese Medicine can be divided into two disciplines: Acupuncture, and Botanical Medicine. Dr. Sims graduated from a three year program of Classical Chinese Medicine and is board certified in both Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology.
Acupuncture

The body is divided into a system of twelve meridians. Each meridian must be open and flowing for proper health. The job of an Acupuncturist is to identify the meridians that are "blocked" and choose the appropriate acupuncture points to release them.
Chinese Herbology/Botanical Medicine

Classical Chinese plant medicine boasts a two-thousand year history of service to humanity. Medicinal plants are combined in a very specific way to treat each condition. The combination of botanicals (plants) is called a "formula". Formulas can be combined with acupuncture to approach a given condition from two angles.
