DR. ALEXANDRIA NGUYEN-JOHNSON, ND, LAc

Services
Dr. Alexandria uses Chinese medicine modalities to achieve the best results possible for her patients.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture, cupping, and moxibustion encourage the flow of Qi to correct imbalances in the body.
-
Acupuncture uses thin needles inserted along channels.
-
Cupping uses heated glass cups placed directly on the body.
-
Moxibustion involves burning moxa (mugwort) on or near the body.
Medicinals
Herbs are superfoods and are a step-up from basic nutrition. They are traditionally ingested as a decoction (strong tea). Since Dr. Alexandria is trained in both Western and Chinese Herbalism, she may suggest Western herbs, Chinese herbs, or even both as she deems fit. These days you can still drink your herbs as a tea, but they also come in the form of powders, pills, tinctures, or syrups.
Nutrition
Naturopathic medicine restores health by respecting nature, science, and using interventions that do the least harm. Because food is a key foundation of health, nutrition is emphasized. Dr. Alexandria believes different diets work for different people, constitutions, and conditions - therefore she make recommendations according to individual needs.

First Do No Harm

Doctor as Teacher
The best thing a doctor can do for their patients is educate them about their health and body…the journey to health is a team effort.

Treat the Whole Person
We treat the individual by taking into account physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social and other factors.
