Acupuncture and herbal medicine are highly effective treatments for numerous different types of pain. There are so many studies showing that it works. Chinese Medicine works on the whole person, addressing not only the physical, but also the mind and emotions. Acupuncture and herbal medicine together can multiply the results of your diet and exercise efforts, because they address the actual root causes of weight gain.
If the diagnosis is spot on, then the results can be amazing. Advanced pulse diagnosis helps to paint a clear picture when combined with other diagnostic methods.

For most cases I recommend acupuncture once per week, and taking Chinese herbal medicine at home every day (if it's prescribed). In my experience, once per week acupuncture provides just enough time off between treatments to allow for continual progress with the resolution of your symptoms. If spacing it out to 2 weeks, the results aren't as good, and in some cases could be disappointing.
The feeling of pain is most commonly associated with the disease ( bing) of "impediment" ( bi) in Chinese Medicine, which is a kind of blockage or obstruction of the normal flow of qi and blood throughout the body. When the body's channels are blocked, not only can pain result, but also numbness and other forms of dysfunction.
Losing weight with Chinese Medicine includes making dietary changes, and exercising. There's no way around it. Those are part of the fundamental theories of Chinese Medicine, and are prescribed as essential aspects of the treatment of obesity and overweight syndromes. Did you know that Chinese Medicine is about much more than acupuncture treatments?

If you've been nervous to try acupuncture, look no further! I have several chronic conditions including IBS and Spina Bifida that have been a huge battle nearly my entire life. I have seen multiple specialists over the last 15 years and spent thousands of dollars seeking answers that are never given, until I finally decided to seek alternative methods. The management of my chronic conditions has become infinitely better with regular acupuncture treatment and the herbal supplements recommended to me by Scott. He does a wonderful job of making you feel comfortable and at ease, offering detailed explanations

Scott is so knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. He has been the only person In 10 years that has helped to start healing my digestion. I have been to nutritionist and doctors and have never had as much success I’m having as the 6 weeks I have been seeing Scott. He is working on another prominent issue I have and am feeling hopeful with the protocol he has put in place. Every session he tweeks his acupuncture to what I am needing for the week. He is also an herbalist and is highly knowledgeable in a regimen that will help. Give him a try you won’t be disappointed!

I have wanted to try acupuncture for quite some time because I have heard good things about it. I am so glad that I took the plunge when Ginko Leaf opened. I am 74 years old and have suffered from back pain for years, and more recently, arthritis in my knee has really set me back. I got relief after my first treatment and after a couple more sessions with Scott my level of pain has deceased significantly. I am able to walk further than I have been able to for a long time. Scott does not pressure you to do more than you can afford. He wants you to be well and try’s to keep it within your budget

I feel compelled to write this review in the event that it is off help to others. I had been having massages at Medical Mile Massage with Gaiane and love her and the space! While there I became interested in their other services; specifically acupuncture. I wanted to learn if acupuncture could help me with general inflammation, fluctuating energy levels and autoimmune issues. Through out the summer and fall I regularly went to see Scott Schauland. I found him to be extremely attentive and holistically interested in my issues. With acupuncture and a few Chinese herbal formulas I have felt a steady

I have gone to Ginkgo Leaf because of shoulder pain. Scott was very professional, and explained in detail what coarse of action would best take care of my pain in both of my shoulders. I have received acupuncture before at a different facility for jaw pain a few years back. I was pleasantly surprised how much more professional and detailed Scott was before giving me treatments and during. He was very kind and always had my best interest. I will use Scott in the future if needed. As of now, my shoulder pain has reduced so much I just don't feel I need treatment right now. Yay!
