What is very unique to David's practice is that he is both a Practitioner of Chinese Medicine as well as a Classical Homeopath. This gives him the ability to choose the best of either medicine for every case, whether that is acupuncture, herbs or homeopathic medicine. With these, he is able to treat almost any physical, mental or emotional problem. David also has a special interest in treating pain, whether from injury, overuse, migraines, arthritis, digestive or autoimmune disease.
He is also extremely thorough. David says: " When I take on a new patient, the first thing I want to do is get to know you as much as possible. The more I know about you, the more effectively I can treat you. In this way, I can get to the root of the problem, and more importantly I am able to treat you more quickly and effectively." Ultimately, he wants to treat his patients with as few needles or as little medicine as necessary to get them back on track and feeling great.
