Traditional Chinese medicine

A broader view of health, balance and recovery.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is the foundation of Daniel's practice, integrated with contemporary orthopedic assessment and modern approaches to pain and injury care.

Whole-person care

Treat the person, not just the diagnosis.

Daniel's approach considers how symptoms interact with movement, work, recreation, sleep, stress and overall health. Treatment is individualized to the person and may incorporate several traditional and modern modalities.

Chinese herbal medicine and nutritional guidance may be recommended when appropriate, based on overall health, medications, medical history and treatment goals.

Cupping therapy

Acupuncture

Fine needles stimulate carefully selected points based on symptoms and clinical findings.

Electroacupuncture

Gentle electrical stimulation may be incorporated when appropriate for pain, muscle dysfunction or rehabilitation.

Cupping

Suction therapy may help address muscular tension, soft-tissue restriction and post-exercise soreness.

Gua sha & tui na

Traditional manual therapies can support tissue mobility, muscular relaxation and recovery.

Herbal medicine

Chinese herbal formulas may be used as part of an individualized treatment plan and coordinated with other care.

Qigong, meditation & breathwork

Daniel's training also includes mindfulness practices that support body awareness, relaxation and stress management.
