Joseph and Elise Adams

 

About Us

 Joseph and Elise Adams were both introduced to Oriental medicine at an early age. This shared experience was one of the factors that brought them together and helped forge their strong and loving union. Subsequent to receiving Masters degrees in Oriental medicine, they both trained extensively with modern masters who helped to cultivate their expertise and clinical focus.

                       Initial Consultation

The first visit is usually 90 minutes long and includes both assessment and treatment. Follow up treatments are usually one hour. A thorough consultation includes discussing your chief complaint, medical history, diet and lifestyle. Your blood pressure may be taken, and a tongue and pulse diagnosis are performed. Depending on the condition, other diagnostics may be employed.

Traditional and Western Approaches

Joseph and Elise Adams have have merged their understanding of anatomy, physiology, and Western diagnostics with traditional Oriental medical approaches in order to provide wholesome  care for the entire family.
