Chinese Medicine is one of the oldest complete medical systems practiced today. With historical references dating thousands of years B.C.E., Oriental Medicine, also called Traditional Chinese Medicine, has a richly documented past. Encompassing acupuncture, Chinese herbs, nutrition and other modalities, Chinese medicine is an effective, empirical science based on data and experience gathered in the real world over the course of millennia. Honoring this tradition, Empirical Point brings the healing power of acupuncture and Chinese medicine to the Philadelphia area.
