What is The Balance Method TM of acupuncture?
The Balance Method TM of acupuncture was developed by Dr. Richard Tan of San Diego. The Balance Method TM works with the sophisticated relationships of the acupuncture meridians. Acupuncture points distal to the affected area are used: points in the elbows are used to treat knee pain, ankle points treat the wrists. Fewer needles are used than the commonly taught methods and immediate results are seen, especially with pain treatment. Dr. Tan has developed sophisticated point combinations to treat all manner of internal conditions including: lung (allergies, sinusitis, colds/flu), cardio-vascular, stomach and bowels, gyn and emotional problems. Results are long lasting. Dr. Tan continually updates and refines the system, his life work.
