Experience Counts: Rocky Mountain Acupuncture practitioner Seth Drake is board certified with over a decade of experience successfully treating patients’ health concerns.
Rocky Mountain Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is the culmination of over 10 years of experience by practitioner Seth Drake. “I founded the clinic out of a deep understanding of what Chinese medicine is and the positive impact it has on the lives of those who choose to use it. Whether you are looking for preventive care, management of ongoing health conditions or seasonal ailments, Rocky Mountain Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is dedicated to being there for you and your family,” Drake says. He is passionate about using acupuncture and Chinese medicine to help people lead healthier lives as well as educating people on the benefits. “When you say ‘acupuncture’ people envision huge hypodermic needles sticking into their body,” Drake says. “But that’s not what it is at all.”
Acupuncture is a system of integrative medicine that involves pricking the skin or tissues to alleviate pain and to treat various physical, mental and emotional conditions. Drake explains acupuncture needles have a diameter that’s comparable to a strand of hair. It works because acupuncture taps into your nervous system to get areas to re-fire, flush in new blood and remove stagnant Qi, a Chinese medical term that means energy flow. Acupuncture and herbs are the most widely used forms of medicine globally, Drake notes. The vast majority of patients, 75 percent, report their physical symptoms were relieved. It’s also extremely effective on a broader level with nearly 70 percent of patients reporting both emotional and mental symptoms were relieved.
The practitioners at the clinic are nationally trained, board certified and travel to China multiple times a year for continued training. Drake points out the time-tested natural methods of medicine that he offers have proven to be highly effective and they are able to treat people suffering from common and uncommon health problems that have not seen results with modern western medicine.
Patients offer a rousing recommendation. One says, “I was recently diagnosed with a skin condition after going on a new blood pressure medication. Within two weeks of seeing Seth the severe itchy rash I’d been experiencing had disappeared.”
Another says, “I have dealt with the symptoms of interstitial cystitis for a few years now. After having been to countless doctors who kept telling me I had a kidney infection I began to give up hope. I saw Seth for about three months and during this time he was able to effectively treat my condition allowing me to live a much more comfortable life.”
The clinic focuses on the individual approach. Treatment plans are crafted on an individual basis which patients appreciate. Another patient says, “Seth listened to my needs and goals for my visit and developed a personalized treatment plan for me. He created an environment where I felt heard, understood and comfortable. Seth also takes the time to teach his patients which I find admirable.”
