An Invitation To Other Health Care Providers
"Through mutual respect and cooperation we can complement each others care, ensuring the highest quality of care for our respective patients."
We would like to welcome you regardless of the type of health care you practice. We would like to think that we are ultimately all on the same team. One of our goals is to facilitate an atmosphere of open communication, mutual respect and cooperation between the many types of providers in offering the highest quality of care to our respective patients. We hope you enjoy this web site and find it helpful in informing you of how acupuncture and Oriental medicine can complement your care.
We are at a turning point in the history of medicine; a new model is emerging where practitioners from across disciplines are beginning to collaborate in combining therapies through cross referrals and even fully integrated care clinics, this is especially true in Washington state. In this new model of medicine, the inclusion of acupuncture helps to ensure that patients have a chance to utilize a less invasive method of healing when appropriate.
Many acupuncturists consult and cross-refer when necessary with a range of providers from neurosurgeons and psychotherapists to naturopaths and massage therapists. We hope that you will take some time and browse our member directory and consider contacting a member acupuncturist near you. Chances are we will all benefit from collaboration, especially our patients. Thank you for visiting our site!
