Acupuncture Treatments
Medical acupuncture addresses chronic pain, migraines, and systemic conditions through precise needle placement. Dr. Chen's 30+ years of expertise combines traditional Chinese techniques with modern medical understanding. Patients benefit from improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and natural pain relief without pharmaceutical dependence.
IV Nutritional Therapy
Direct bloodstream delivery of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients treats fatigue, immune deficiencies, and chronic conditions. Customized IV cocktails enhance cellular function and metabolic efficiency. This therapy supports faster recovery from illnesses and improved overall wellness through optimized nutrient absorption.
Spinal Decompression
Non-surgical treatment for herniated discs and chronic back pain uses traction to realign spinal discs. The DOC Decompression system creates negative pressure to rehydrate discs and relieve nerve compression. Patients experience reduced pain and improved mobility without medication or invasive procedures.
Chelation Therapy
Intravenous solutions bind heavy metals and calcium deposits to improve cardiovascular health. This FDA-approved treatment addresses mercury poisoning and arterial plaque buildup. Regular sessions enhance circulation and reduce heart disease risk factors through natural detoxification processes.
Nutritional Counseling
Personalized nutrition programs address metabolic disorders and preventative health. Combining medical expertise with practical meal planning, we manage diabetes, cholesterol, and weight-related conditions.

How does IV therapy work?
Vitamins and minerals are delivered directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip, bypassing digestive absorption limits to achieve higher nutrient concentrations for cellular repair and immune support.
What should I expect during spinal decompression?
The non-invasive procedure uses motorized traction to gently stretch the spine, creating negative pressure between discs. Sessions last 30-45 minutes with most patients reporting immediate pain relief after initial treatments.
Are herbal supplements safe?
All herbs are FDA-approved and prescribed according to individual health profiles. Dr. Chen monitors interactions with conventional medications to ensure safe, regulated treatment protocols.

Dr Chen is a true healer. He will spend time helping you in a way that other practitioners don't and is caring and wise in his advice. My experiences over the past three years have always led to decreased pain without the use of medication or surgery.

I want to appreciate Dr. Chen for his use of the highest standards in medical care and acupuncture. He is one of the most caring, knowledgeable and sincere doctors in the area, and you can trust the treatment methods he offers for better and faster healing. I feel like new after receiving his treatments from when I was involved in an accident. His office manager is very polite, and my calls are returned on a prompt basis. The whole office is very well organized and patient focused.
