I am Debora Silverman, Nationally Certified and California Licensed Acupuncturist and Asian Medicine Practitioner.
I believe that the healing process begins within each and everyone of us. As a Wellness Provider, I am very passionate about helping people achieve better health. With proper diagnosis, treatment, and a cooperative relationship between the practitioner and the patient, it is possible to have optimal health.
My treatments are integrative and have a synergistic approach. Treatment consists of a combination of modalities that best address the imbalance. Some of the modalities that may be used include Acupuncture, Massage, Moxabustion, Cupping, Counseling, Herbal and Dietary approaches.
I am a General Practitioner with special interests in Pain Management and Psycho-Emotional Well-Being.
Oriental Medicine uses various modalities simultaneously to achieve balance in the body. Some of those I incorporate in my practice are Acupuncture, Moxabustion, Cupping, Herbal and Dietary Therapy, Acutonics, Therapeutic Massage and Organic Facial Rejuvenation.
Integrative Medicine is a safe and natural approach to healthcare. For many people, it is as much about preventing illness as it is about treating existing problems. In addition to helping improve mental and emotional well-being, chronic conditions are benefited tremendously. Oriental Medicine is often able to diagnose and treat complicated chronic conditions that Biomedicine has difficulty resolving.
One of our greatest tools as Oriental Medicine practioners is the use of differential diagnosis. We treat patterns, not symptoms. Our diagnostic techniques discern underlying energetic patterns and identify imbalances often before they present as physical symptoms. Through a differential diagnosis including pulse-taking and tongue observation, a pattern of energetic imbalance is determined. Specific points and energy pathways or meridians are stimulated to re-balance, unblock and promote smooth circulation throughout our bodies. Each meridian or energy pathway is linked to a particular organ. It is responsible for many functions. The meridians are comparable to the heart and blood system with arteries connecting to capillaries distributing blood to every cell.
“A 1996 report in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture reported that, among 300 cases treated with Facial Acupuncture, 90 had marked effects with one course of treatment. The effects included: the skin becoming delicate and fair, improvement of the elasticity of facial muscles and leveling of wrinkles, a ruddier complexion, and overall rejuvenation–not confined to the face.”
Acupuncture Promotes Immune Support and Wellness for any and all conditions.
