With almost 30 years of experience practicing traditional Chinese medicine, Dr. Susanna Shen continues to alleviate her clients' pain discomfort at Los Altos Acupuncture Center. Dr. Shen's natural and holistic approach aims to support the body's natural healing processes by targeting specific symptoms, as well as the underlying causes behind those symptoms. She can accomplish this several different ways. During acupuncture treatments, Dr. Shen inserts disposable, hair-thin needles into key areas along the body, which historically were thought to correspond with the body's natural energies. These needles redirect this energy wherever necessary and promote healthy function throughout all the major organ systems to restore harmony and balance. Dr. Shen and her staff also strive to establish a similar sort of balance with traditional Chinese herbal medicine and acupressure treatments.
