About Dr. Zhu

Dr. Bindi Zhu takes a holistic approach to wellness using acupuncture that encompasses both conventional and traditional medicine. By combining the information made available through modern diagnostic methods and traditional Chinese medicine, a wealth of knowledge is made available for diagnosis. With 35 years experience, Dr. Zhu is a pioneer in the integration of conventional and Chinese medicine. By combining these two approaches and working with your foundation of caregivers, Dr. Zhu can help you reach your health potential.

He believes that his patients should have a thorough understanding of his integrative approach to medicine and a clear explanation of their diagnosis. When reviewing each patient’s medical records and taking a thorough history, Dr. Zhu gives a diagnosis based on conventional and Chinese medicine.

When making a diagnosis, Dr. Zhu takes into account the individual’s constitution, stress level, emotional changes, and illness- factors that vary as widely as fingerprints do. Therefore, no single treatment can adequately treat all conditions, but requires an individualized treatment plan contingent on the presentation of each syndrome.

Chinese medicine emphasizes the differentiation of syndromes; that means that even within the same “disease,” each stage (e.g. pre-menopause, menopause, post-menopause) will have a different treatment. In addition, each individual presents their symptoms in a way unique to their body’s constitution. For example, when treating hypertension, traditional Chinese medicine subdivides the disorder further into four different types. The corresponding treatment will differ for each presentation.

Using 35 years of clinical experience, Dr. Zhu will explain your diagnosis according to conventional and Chinese medicine. He’ll lay out a treatment plan explaining how many treatments you’ll need, how long it will take for you to see results, and what you can do to prevent a reoccurrence of the problem. He’ll discuss what treatments are appropriate for your condition, whether it’s acupuncture, acupressure, Chinese therapeutic massage, cupping, electro-stimulation, or a custom-made herbal formula, etc.
