For more than 2500 years, generations of patients and physicians have depended on acupuncture, moxibustion, tuina, and dietary therapy for preventative care, basic medical treatment, and advanced management of complex disorders. These rarely mastered arts are now available in Cleveland. Very few physicians have devoted the years of study necessary to understand the complex anatomy of the meridians or the subtle blending of foods and flavors to produce the Oriental medicines of the East.After more than 45 years of study and application, I have integrated these time-honored techniques with the best of modern medical knowledge.

How to Make An Appointment
Report
To schedule an appointment for an initial consultation, you must speak with Ms. Shurtz or Dr. Grotte by calling (440) 461-7488 from 1pm to 7pm, E.S.T. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. A package of forms and questionnaires, and an appointment card, will be sent out to you, along with a return envelope.
Office Policies
Report
Please try to arrive 10 to 15 minutes early for your appointment. We are very careful to keep on schedule, so that it is unusual for you to be seen more than a few minutes past your scheduled time. Arriving early allows you to rest a few minutes and allow your pulses to calm for the visit. When a patient rushes to make an appointment, it disturbs the qi and pulse.
Some of the Disorders We Treat
Report
Women who are having problems with conception, premenstrual symptoms, or menopausal issues will often see positive results with Oriental medicine. It may be possible to reduce or eliminate the need for Western pharmaceuticals. If drugs or hormones must be used, side effects may be reduced. The treatment of gynecologic imbalances is a well established specialty in Oriental medicine.
How To Choose a Practitioner
Report
Standards for practitioners of acupuncture and other Oriental techniques are constantly evolving. The treatment of complex disorders and pain syndromes often requires an ongoing relationship with a physician. Therefore, to make the best decision, you have to inform yourself as to the options available.
