Richard Abbott's bio
This content was provided by Richard Abbott "Originally from Japan, Dr Abbott is a Georgia licensed Acupuncturist certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). He received his Master of Science in Oriental Medicine from the East-West College of Natural Medicine, Sarasota, Florida and his Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (DTCM) from the International College of TCM, Vancouver, British Columbia. He has over 15 years of clinical acupuncture experience and 32 years of independent research into the true cause of human illness and disease (imbalances). While there are many styles of acupuncture, most are minimally effective overall and require many sessions to achieve high patient satisfaction. Dr Abbott has further developed Dr Tan's Balance Method into a unique style that regularly achieves ninety-five percent "good" to "superior" results on the first visit. Very few practitioners have mastered this art to this level. So by using this blend of esoteric acupuncture and medical qigong, Dr Abbott treats virtually any problem holistically (physically, mentally, and energetically) for exceptional and longer lasting results.

Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Richard Abbott "In my opinion, ninety percent of disorders can be caused by stress (fear, worry, frustration, anger, etc.) but most integrative practitioners believe its caused by diet and lack of supplements and exercise. Approaching the problem from the physical aspect can help some but unless the negative energy patterns are harmonized and/or removed, through education and energetic acupuncture and/or medical qigong, the results will be inferior. The energy, mind and body are interconnected and operate as one system. When you affect the energy it affects the mind which then affects the flow of the body then you see amazing results. "
