A Vision of Compassionate Health Care for All People : My Story of St. Teresa Acupuncture Wellness Clinic

Imagine every family in America having accessibility to affordable alternative medicine. Imagine every man, woman, and child having accessibility to a safe and natural medicine that is within their reach and within their means, whenever and wherever there is a need. This is the story of one woman's vision to transform the disparities and lack within the alternative medicine community and is a call to action relevant to every person in America today. This book unveils the illusion about traditional Chinese medicine as a viable health care alternative for all people. While Hollywood and the media portrayed an exotic image of Chinese medicine, the issues of cost, affordability, and accessibility were not readily touched upon. The choice to act toward an equitable, compassionate, and inclusive society and health care system is within each one of us. It is not about whether or not one can do it. It is about whether or not one wants to do it. A Vision of Compassionate Health Care for All People is the launch of a grassroots effort that carries the potential of becoming a widespread movement.
