"The Tao is called the Great Mother, empty yet inexhaustible it gives birth to infinite worlds, it is always present within you"

 Welcome to the Practice!

Durham Integrative Health and Acupuncture Center is a 501c3 organization that's mission is to offer effective holistic medicine for Triangle area residents for a range of conditions utilizing four of the eight branches of the Chinese tradition; acupuncture, herbal medicine, bodywork, and nutrition. â€‹

 

While we treat conditions, we are profoundly grounded in an understanding of how to cultivate health. To do so, we encourage practices that are rooted in millenia old traditons to regulate "normal" using diet, breath, movement and alignment with natural cycles. This is what differentiates Chinese medicine from Western, when both treatment and self cultivation happen, we see incredible changes. 

​

A traditional East Asian worldview, is holistic by nature, and sees health as a state of regulated responsiveness between what's inside and what's outside.

We believe everyone can be empowered to take care of their health and find balance (that regulated responsiveness) harmony, and well being.

 

Our practitioners start from the assumption that everyone has an innate capacity for self healing, arising from aligning with the deep intelligence and integrity of nature itself (Dao). We help people navigate the various streams of health information in our media dense world and cull what's best from the recomendations and research of the west, while grounding healing and health cultivation in the point of view and practices of Chinese medicine.

Yang Sheng Nourishing Life with the Seasons 

Running in 2026~2027
Beautiful Bonsai
"For Heaven, the ruling principle is synchronicity.
For Earth, the ruling principle is balance.
For Human beings, the ruling principle is gentleness.
Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the cycles of Heaven.
Mountains, hills, rivers and valleys are the forms of Earth.
Praise and anger, acceptance and rejection are the devices of human beings
Therefore: 
The adept alters with the seasons but does not change; 
moves along with things but does not transform."
