Welcome to Chinese Medicine Center!
Chinese treatments include both Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). They are an integral part of Chinese culture and philosophy for more than 5000 years. The concepts of Yin and Yang and the dynamics of the Five Elements provide the intellectual framework of TCM theory. Analogies are drawn from the natural phenomena to the correlations of organs of the body. Illnesses, including cancers, are seen as a tip-over in the balance of Yin and Yang, which can be caused by emotions, improper diet, over-work, over-rest, phlegm, rheum, or climate factors, such as wind, cold, summer-heat, humidity, dryness, heat. Therapy thus depends on accurate diagnosis of the source of the imbalance. Four basic diagnostic methods are used: inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry and palpation. Clinic properties of thousands of herbs are well-documented. Some can clear heat and toxin; some can regulate blood circulation; some can remove phlegm; some can eliminate diuretic and dampness; some can be applied externally.
Prescription drugs take on different approach. For each diseases, pharmaceutical companies come up with different drugs to fight. Inevitably, they bear two disadvantages:1. New drug research cycle is usually 10-15 years or longer.2. Serious side-effects may happen.
We live in a world that the spectrum of diseases keeps mutating. The long-waiting period could be prove devastating. In early 2003, when Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) first broke out, doctors scrambled to search for the effective drug. They needed hormones to suppress the immune system. However, hormones aren't safe. As a result, many recovered patients suffered osteonecrosis later. To date, no immediate cure for SARS is found yet. On the other hand, according to TCM, SARS is caused by pestilence, dampness and heat toxic. Thousands of natural herbs are available to clear away the heat and toxicity inside the body. It is reported that when combining TCM treatments with prescription drugs, fever days of patients were significantly decreased and the chance of getting osteonecrosis is much smaller.
Taking another example, in cancer treatment, chemo-therapy and prescription drugs are widely used to fight the cancer cells, and doctors hope that patients are strong enough that human normal cells can survive. But are cancer patients all "strong"? Unfortunately, the answer is a resounding "No". Cancer patients usually have weak body immune system, and few can survive these abusive drug treatments. Then what differences can TCM make to those cancer patients? TCM works to keep yin and yang balanced, to boost stomach energy, to fight cancer cells, while strengthening the body immune system. Once immune system is back on-line, patients will recover day by day.
World Health Organization (WHO) has emphasized the importance of TCM, and has promoted its development all over the world. Today, TCM is very popular in Germany and other European countries. Dr. Wang is one of the leading Chinese doctors who successfully treated many cancer patients. His unique diagnosis is based on both the modern medical examinations and traditional methods. He uses TCM, acupuncture, or both in his treatments.
This clinic is specially dedicated to treating people with cancer and varieties of difficult-to-cure diseases. Due to popular demands, we also provide remote diagnose, please refer to contact for details. We hope this clinic will benefit all the patients who are suffering and feeling hopeless.
Dr. Wang
Dr. Wang was born in Hunan, China. He is a professor of the China Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing, head of the scientific research group at the State Natural Scientific Research Fund; member of the Chinese Acupuncture Association, and guest professor of Johanniter Hospital in Germany.
At the age of eight, Dr. Wang began to study TCM and learned how to pick and identify various herbs from his family. In his determination to become an exceptional Chinese Medicine doctor, he had, by his teenage years, already read large volumes of books on TCM. It was at this time, that his high school Chinese language teacher, desperate after several failed attempts to cure his chronic atrophy gastritis, reluctantly agreed to allow his young student to prescribe a new remedy for his condition - resulting not only in the gradual disappearance of his stomach pain but the full recovery of his appetite as well!
In 1991, Dr. Wang graduated from Nanjing University of TCM with a Ph.D. in medicine. His advisor was Prof. Maoliang Qiu, a world famous acupuncturist and consultant to the World Federation of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Societies, and whose books on acupuncture and moxibustion are considered the bible in the field by many. Under his guidance, Dr. Wang finished his dissertation on "The Induction of Gamma Interferon and Interleukin-2 by Acupuncture in Asymptomatic Hepatitis B Virus Carriers; and Acupuncture and Moxibustion in the Treatment of HBV Carriers: A Clinical Observation of 67 Cases".
Since his graduation, he has been working with the TCM Institute of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, WHO-TCM Collaboration Center, which is regarded as the best of the TCM research universities. He also leads a state-funded NSF project to conduct research into the treatment of Hepatitis B using TCM, and for 3 days each week oversees the operation of a specialized clinic.
Dr. Wang has a unique style in clinical practice - his diagnostic method combines both time-honored traditional methods with the most up-to-date medical diagnostic procedures, such as CT and MRI. His treatment protocols consist of the combining of TCM with either acupuncture, special prescriptions, or Western medicines. His expertise encompasses the following areas of practice: Internal Medicine, Surgery, Gynecologic, and Pediatric; additionally, he specializes in the treatment of common, recurring, and difficult diseases. Specifically, Dr. Wang has demonstrated clinical results in the treatment of the following conditions: allergy-related asthma, nephrosis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, skin diseases, arthritis, depression, migraine headaches, insomnia, tinnitus, and all kinds of cancers - including the side-effects associated with chemotherapy or radiation therapy used in cancer treatment, such as poor appetite, nausea, vomiting, and low white blood cell counts. According to TCM theory, cancer is caused by an imbalance between yin and yang, and the stagnation of the qi flow. Many cancer patients have poor appetites, thereby suffering significant weight loss. In the course of devising innovative solutions for his patients, Dr. Wang has consistently formulated ground-breaking theories. For instance, based on the ancient theory that "A human body's essence is the stomach qi", he proposed that "Ascending and dispersing the qi of the stomach makes the human body healthy". He has successfully applied this theory both in the treatment of malignant tumors and immune function disorders. Remarkably, the active natural components in his prescriptions can not only restrain and destroy cancer cells, but also modulate various specific immune functions, while improving the body's overall immunity - boosting the recovery process and helping the body to fight infection. Of no less importance, these remedies don't interfere or have any known cross-reaction with other medicines or procedures. Using his treatment protocols, cancer patients can achieve a full recovery within 5 years. In May 1998, he accepted an invitation by both Johanniter Group in Germany and the WHO center in Beijing, and joined the department of TCM in Johanniter Hospital as a visiting professor for one year. During that time, he performed more than 8,000 successful medical procedures and lectured hundreds of German Doctors on TCM, acupuncture, and moxibustion. Dr. Eversmeyer, Chairman of the Board of Johanniter Hospital, highly praised him for his contributions. Combining many years of clinical practice and modern TCM theories, he has published over 30 research papers, including 4 in The International Journal of Clinic Acupuncture and 3 in International conference. The article "Treatment of Hepatitis B by Acupuncture" received an international Golden Prize in Canada in May 1999. The book, "Chinese Acupuncture Therapy", co-authored with others, received a second place award in China in 1989. As one of the most accomplished scientists of the Chinese Medical Society, he was recorded in who's who, "The Dictionary of Famous Contemporary Chinese Medicine Doctors", "The Dictionary of Distinguished Famous Doctors in China" and "The Dictionary of Chinese Geniuses". His achievements have not only benefited all of his patients, but also promoted the application and development of TCM in the world.

In the first chapter of Miraculous Pivot (Canon of acupuncture), it is described that "acupuncture therapy does not take effect until the arrival of qi. "In Ode of Golden Needle it is said: "Quick arrival of qi suggests good effects in treatment; slow arrival of qi sh retarded effects in treatment." It indicates that the arrival of qi is especially important in acupuncture treatment.
The functions of acupuncture:Regulation of Yin and Yang: Traditional Chinese Medicine believes the root cause of disease is imbalance between yin and yang. So the sole purpose for treating disease is to readjust yin and yang and restore the normal balance between yin and yang. Since the main manifestations of imbalance between yin and yang are relative predominations of yin and yang and relative decline of yin and yang, the purpose regulating yin and yang is to reduce the excess and supplement deficiency. For example, toothache caused by stomach yang heat, the treatment should be clear the stomach heat and reduce yang. Insomnia caused by heart yang excess and kidney yin deficiency, the reduce heart yang and reinforce kidney yin should be used.Dredge the meridians and their collaterals: Many kinds of disease and pain syndrome are caused by obstruction of meridians and their collaterals, when pathogenic factors be clear away, the energy and blood circulation is normal, the disease is cured and pain is disappeared.
