American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine

The American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM) in San Francisco, CA is a renowned institution offering comprehensive programs in Chinese medicine and acupuncture. With a focus on providing cost-effective and non-invasive treatments, ACTCM's clinical interns offer ear acupuncture treatments for stress reduction at their donation-based clinic in Potrero Hill. Veterans and active military personnel, who are at a higher risk for stress-induced health problems, can benefit from the holistic approach of Chinese medicine in alleviating symptoms of anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and substance abuse.

ACTCM recognizes the significant impact of stress on overall health and well-being, with stress-related conditions accounting for a large percentage of disease and primary care visits. By incorporating Chinese medicine techniques such as acupuncture, herbs, massage, Tai Chi, and Qi Gong, ACTCM aims to release endorphins, improve circulation, reduce cortisol levels, lower blood pressure, and relax muscle tissue. The integration of Chinese medicine with Western therapies offers a promising avenue for enhancing the quality of life and overall health of active military personnel and veterans.
