Chinese Medicine
Chinese medicine is one of the oldest existing medical systems, having a recorded history spanning at least 3000 years. It is said that there are a minimum of 50,000 IMPORTANT books about Chinese medicine. While most Asian countries have their own variants of so-called Asian medicine, Dr. Kanter practices the most distinctly Chinese style. She uses the combination of acupuncture needles and traditional accompanying modalities such as electro-stimulation, acupressure, cupping, and other methods of manipulating acupuncture points. She also uses some more non-traditional forms of application of energy such as laser, ultrasound, microcurrent, interferential, and TENS when appropriate. The Chinese are said to be the most sophisticated herbalists in the world and Dr. Kanter uses Chinese herbs according to the traditional method of prescribing. Who doesn’t like a little massage and healing touch? Dr. Kanter often tops off her treatments with enough therapeutic massage to lock in the effects of the treatment. So whether a patient is needle averse or not, options exist for gaining the benefits offered by Chinese Medicine.
