IS ACUPUNCTURE PAINFUL?
Pain is one way our bodies dialogue with our conscious mind. It calls attention to something out of balance. Acupuncture, in general, can be relatively painless. To compare, about 114 acupuncture needles could fit in the same area as a hollow, hypodermic needle. There may be a slight sting when the acupuncture needle is inserted but the feeling is not the pinch from a shot at the western doctor. Once inserted an acupuncturist will try to have the qi arrive. This feeling may manifest itself in different ways. Sometimes it is "painful," sometimes nothing is felt. It may feel heavy or light, hot or cold, moving in a direction or felt in completely different part of the body. The important thing to remember is to communicate your feelings to your practitioner.

what is Daoism/taoism? The Dao/Tao?
The Dao/Tao is probably best describe by its patron, Laozi/Laotzu. "The Dao/Tao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Dao/Tao." That said, we can see the manifestation of the Dao/Tao in everything. It is the path we walk in search of the mystery. Daoist philosophy was formed in naturalism, an inspection of the aspects of nature and life. The Daoists studied these phenomenon and found correlations about the outside world and applied them to humankind, physically and spiritually.

Of course. We love to work together to integrate with all your health care professionals. 
What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?
During the leadership of Mao Zedong, classical Chinese medicine was almost completely abandoned for newer pharmaceutical medications. When the supply of these medications became short, Mao attempted to unify the many forms of Chinese medical practice and helped develop Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Many itinerant, "barefoot" doctors were sent to treat the poor and suffering throughout China. ​
How long has chinese medicine been available and practiced?
And who was receiving treatments?
"Classical" Chinese medicine has been practiced, and continued to evolve, long before the appearance of modern, allopathic medicine. From emperors to common folk, acupuncture and Chinese herbal prescriptions successfully treated all sort of physical, mental, and spiritual ailments in Asia for the preceding couple thousand years virtually uninterrupted.
