Individual results vary. We provide natural treatment. We do not offer birth control services or prescription drugs.

We begin with a complimentary consultation to understand your concerns, review your health history, and answer your questions so you can determine if our care is the right fit for your needs.

At your intake appointment, your doctor will gather a more complete health picture, then create a customized treatment plan including treatment frequency, dietary guidance, supplements, and herbs precisely selected and properly dosed for optimal results. At this visit you will also receive your initial acupuncture treatment.

You’ll begin a series of regular treatments designed to address the root causes of your condition. During this phase, your doctor will closely monitor key markers of improvement and adjust your treatment plan as things progress.

Once we reach our goal, we begin reducing the frequency of visits while continuing to reinforce and stabilize your results.

Once your main concerns are resolved, you’ll no longer need ongoing treatment. Many patients choose to continue with occasional wellness visits — monthly, quarterly, or even annually — to maintain long-term balance, prevent relapse, and to detect and address any new health issues as early as possible.

All our clinicians are Board Certified by the NCCAOM (National Certification Commission for Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine) and are licensed by the State Board of Acupuncture Examiners and Texas State Medical Board.
Additionally, all our clinicians have specialized training in Functional Endocrinology and Reproductive Medicine via the 5-Element Functional Medicine Institute which was founded by our Director, Chris Axelrad, M.S.O.M., L.Ac.
Chris Axelrad also served for 4 years on the Executive Board of ABORM (The American and TCM Board of Reproductive Medicine), including 2 years as its president.
We are out of network and therefore do not directly bill insurance.
However, many of our patients easily receive reimbursement from their insurance on an out-of-network basis by filing directly with their insurance company. Upon request, we will gladly provide you with the documentation you need in order to do that.
We can definitely help you get whatever lab tests you’re interested in.
However, we typically don’t need many tests, if any, and the ones we do use are fairly standard.
We have found through experience that by using the 5-Element Functional Medicine process developed by our Founder and Director, and focusing on simple, subtle symptomatic diagnostic parameters, we end up with incredibly accurate assessments and treatment plans.
It’s important to remember that your body knows how to fix itself and get itself back into balance. Our process is very precise and efficient at doing that. For instance, many of our patients who are on thyroid replacement end up needing less or can even stop their medicine after a period of time on their treatment plan. This is because not only is the thyroid now producing hormones more efficiently, the cells are also responding to the thyroid more effectively.
We have 4 offices in the Greater Houston area, and a worldwide office on the internet. 😉
The Houston area offices are located in Uptown Park area, Katy, Woodlands, and Sugar Land. Click here to see the locations on a map.
Absolutely not. We are always here to support YOUR goals and YOUR decisions. If you choose to take medications prescribed by another doctor, we respect that choice. Same with the choice to do surgery, IVF, or any other conventional medical procedure.
Our goal is to help you be successful, no matter what YOU decide to do outside of our office (short of harming others or yourself, of course 😉 ).
Your initial consultation usually takes no more than 15 minutes, with a brief “orientation” at the end where we’ll make sure you’re clear on everything before you set up your intake.
The total time for that appointment is about 30 minutes.
The intake appointment is roughly 60 – 75 minutes in length, including 25 minutes for the acupuncture treatment and about 15 minutes at the end to go over your treatment plan and book out some future appointments (we’re very busy so we always encourage you book at least a month in advance to be sure you get the days / times you want).
The follow-ups are typically around 35 – 45 minutes each, again with 25 minutes allocated to the treatment and the rest for consultation and check-out.

Real Success Stories From Our Patients
Since we first opened our doors in 2004, our #1 priority has been to provide the absolute highest level of RESULTS-oriented, compassionate care to our patients.
Hello Chris,
Each day I am starting to slowly feel like my old self. The anxiety, the OCD and emotions are slowly diminishing. I can’t express how thankful I am to you for helping me. I would have never learned so much about myself and what’s happening to me if it wasn’t for you wanting to help feel better. I was in a horrible place for so long and I didn’t know how to change it.
