ABOUT
MISSION & VISION
Our mission at Silk Tree Healing Center is to support the personal healing process of each of our patients. We do this by providing highly individualized, gifted, and intuitive healing that incorporates the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of well-being. Our healing services include different modalities of traditional Chinese medicine (acupuncture, herbs, moxibustion, cupping, etc.), meditation, and medical Qigong. We believe that actively including patients in their own healing process is essential in order to achieve lasting healing effects. Our vision is to contribute to each patient’s optimal healing, by helping them to reconnect with their inner wisdom, and to strengthen their relationship with the outer world. |
