What Is Chinese Medicine?

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a 3,000-year-old system of healing that views health as the balance between body, mind, and environment.

Instead of treating isolated symptoms, TCM seeks to identify patterns of imbalance—physical, emotional, or energetic—that lead to illness.

Dr. Shiroko uses her extensive background in Western medicine, acupuncture, and integrative health to bridge the wisdom of the East with modern diagnostics, helping you understand and heal the root causes of your symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Chinese Medicine safe?

Not at all. The needles are hair-thin, and most patients feel only a slight pinch or tingling sensation, followed by deep relaxation.

Can Chinese Medicine work alongside my current treatments?

This depends on your condition. Some patients notice improvement after the first visit, while chronic issues may require several sessions for lasting results.

Do you use Chinese herbs?

Yes—when performed by a trained medical doctor like Dr. Sokitch, acupuncture is safe, sterile, and FDA-approved for pain management.

How soon will I feel results?

Absolutely. It works beautifully alongside conventional and functional medicine therapies to support whole-body healing.
