“Americans are losing patience with the limits of conventional medicine. They've had it with whiling away hours in waiting rooms, curt doctors, and an impersonal health care system that tends to disease rather than prevention. They're fed up with high-tech wizardry that doesn't ease their pain and in many cases causes further iatrogenic complications and weakens their immune systems.”

“It’s all about you” at Alderman Medical
At we have a saying, “It’s all about you.” “It’s all about you” is not just another slogan, it’s a philosophical metaphor that deals with the theoretical underpinnings of Eastern Medicine, our caring and your innate energy systems that maintain the bodies balance (homeostasis). Energy (Qi), in Traditional Oriental Medicine, its fluidity, abundance, balance, and regulation is the main differentiation between the medical art and science of eastern medicine and western medicine. Western Medicines “magic bullet concept” suppresses disease and disregards, frequently, what we have learned… that suppressing disease is not enough to restore health.

Disease is a result of complex, interacting forces. The fact is that disease doesn’t just occur. Our genetic makeup, environmental stressors, emotional balance, diet and lifestyle degrades or enhance our ability to heal and fight off pathogenic insults. “It’s all about you”
