Dr. Marlin Wilson, TCM, R.Ac - Dr. Marlin Wilson is a registered acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor, who opened Wilson Acupuncture in 1997.
Dr. Wilson’s methodology is guided by his desire to help people heal using humor, music, compassion, and solid health concepts. The central theory of TCM is the yin-yang theory: the concept of two opposing, yet complementary forces that shape the world and all life.
In the Traditional Chinese Medicine view, the vital energy or life force is called Qi. Qi regulates and energizes the individual’s spiritual, emotional and physical health, which are influenced by the opposing forces of yin and yang. Qi circulates throughout the body via a system of pathways called meridians. Health is an ongoing process that requires maintaining the balance and harmony in the circulation of Qi. This balance is the healing.
