Ming Dai, L.AC.

Acupuncturist

Ming Dai has treated tens of thousands of patients with successful results for over 30 years. Although first trained in Western medicine as a graduate of Second Medical School(Shanghai Jiao Tong University) she later realized through personal family experience that in many respects Western medicine was limited to solving symptoms only. She witnessed Traditional Chinese Medicine go further, not only reversing desperate health symptoms, but rendering the patient free from their diseases in many cases. She immersed herself in the study of TCM with the most reliable texts and teachers available and found she was possessed of a unique gift, able to guide her patients through the proper diagnosis and natural treatment process with many great successes. Ming is committed to helping people maintain hope and restore health. Beyond her medical and traditional health knowledge, Ming is a dedicated practitioner who lives as she teaches, practices what she preaches, and devotes all of her attention to helping patients with respect, care and compassion.
