I was 8 years old when I watched Star Wars the first time, and that’s when I decided to build a robot. Out of a trash can. Powered by a car battery. OK, so maybe I’m kind of nerdy. Just like R2-D2, right? Don’t judge. Yeah, I’ll admit I’ve always loved the... Read more

As you know, we’ve been at this graphing stuff for a while now. So after 14 years and several thousand AcuGraph users, we’ve noticed a thing or two about what makes initial purchasers into successful users, and ultimately into prosperous practitioners. You need to know this too, so we took all... Read more
Best results come when powerful treatments are delivered as simply as possible!

I voted, did you? Did you get a sticker? Did you proudly post a selfie with your sticker on social media, telling the whole world that you did something you believed in? Most of you are plenty tired of hearing about the election but bear with me for a moment while... Read more
Have you ever had someone ask you for acupuncture proof? Or have you ever been told that “it’s just placebo”? I have, and more regularly than I ever expected I would.
