At Black Hills Integrative Medicine, we believe in the power of holistic healing based on Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM) which has its roots deeply entwined with the philosophies of Daoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism.

CCM has evolved from the classical teachings of the ancient Daoist medical texts of China. These include the Huangdi Neijing Su Wen, Tai Su, Ling Shu, the Nan Jing, Mai Jing, Shang Han Lun, Jia Yu Jing and the teachings from the Imperial Medical Academy of the Song Dynasty and the subsequent Four Great Masters of the Jin-Yuan period, Liu Wansu, Zhang Congzheng, Li Gao and Zhu Danxi.

Black Hills Integrative Medicine is committed to enriching the practice of acupuncture by reclaiming the heritage and legacy of Classical Chinese Medicine, the history of ideas and their influence in the development of our style of practice which includes placing importance on the emotional and spiritual components of illness and healing.
