About Me

Hello, my name is Chen XIA (pronounced sha). I received seven years full time education in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine that include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine), and seven years clinical practice in China. In 1999, I achieved MD, Ph.D degree from Kyoto University, Japan, major in aging study, then I came to US for medical research training at the Texas Medical Center.

I realized that the modern diseases are very different to what is happening 50 years ago. Many peoples are aging or with life style related healthcare problems. The factors of the problem are caused from interior means. In other words, the disease is caused by us, not from exterior threats like bacteria.

The TCM use acupuncture and herbal medicine to perform diseases treatment and healthcare improvement. The treatment is not designed directly to heal the problem. Instead, we use approaches to strengthen and regulate the body energy, in order to resist and eliminate both the external and internal pathogenic factor, tol keep our body in healthy condition.

You are welcome to visit my office to discuss your healthcare problem. Let us try to find what I can do for you and what can you do by yourself.

Houston Acupuncture, TCM
