History
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a health and wellness paradigm spanning over 2,500 years of documented history. This healing modality is the oldest professionally administered medicine and it is widely accepted in both the east and the west. The World Health Organization (WHO) has officially recognized acupuncture as an effective treatment for over two hundred common disorders. Dr. Zhaoxue Lu and Fang Zhang, primary practitioners at Pearl Acupuncture and Wellness Center, are state-licensed acupuncturists and national board certified herbalists, with over 20 years teaching and practice experience at the university level both in China and United States. They are skilled in providing both preventative care and disease treatment. Currently, both of them are faculty memeber of Oregon College of Oriental Medicine. Dr. Lu is a faculty and clinician at Family Medicine of Oregon Health & Science University.
