PRLog - April 9, 2015 - PORTLAND, Ore. -- For the more than 100 million Americans who suffer from chronic pain, help is on the way – and Dr. Yan Lu in Portland, Oregon, is ready to supply it. He is the 1st U.S. Accredited Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and uses a three-pronged approach to help patients who suffer from pain, diabetes, and infertility, among others. Dr. Lu boasts over 20 years’ experience specializing in providing acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. He also is the author of a Tuina handbook: “Tuina: A Chinese Medical Massage Handbook,” which is currently being used by students and practitioners across the country.
The average person recognizes what acupuncture and herbal medicine are and how they help. Tuina, however, is less well known. It combines the disciplines of massage, acupressure, Chinese style chiropractic and physical therapy. These four elements can be superficial or they can be deep and penetrating. Tuina itself is used to promote circulation, heal soft tissues and sport injuries, and reset the relationship between bones and their surrounding tissues. The beauty of Tuina is that it serves multiple purposes: it can be preventative and therapeutic, for both chronic and acute diseases.
Dr. Lu is an expert in helping his patients achieve what was previously impossible. For one of Dr. Lu’s patients, Lauren, the work he did changed her life completely. Lauren had been impregnated three times, making it to 12 weeks every time – but sadly she incurred miscarriages each time. Her doctors could not determine why it kept happening, and she was desperate for help. She turned to Dr. Lu, and after 6 months of treatment she was pregnant again. She and her husband welcomed her baby boy into the world in September 2014.
He is well-versed in treating diabetes patients, many of whom have experienced weight loss, reduced insulin use, and normal glucose levels. Patients with arthritis pain have likewise experienced great success with Dr. Lu’s treatment plans, noting an increase in energy, a decrease in pain, and an overall feeling of wellness.
Dr. Lu established his acupuncture and massage clinic in Portland, Oregon after he moved to the United States. In two decades of practicing the Chinese healing arts, both in China and the U.S., Dr. Lu has helped thousands of people with a wide variety of physical and psychological illness and conditions, through his comprehensive healing therapy incorporating acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and tuina. He is one of very few acupuncturists with a doctorate degree. Dr. Lu also sees patients in Evergreen Medical Clinic in Vancouver, WA, where his patients enjoy the care from both western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine.
