YEAR OF HOPE AND CAREER BREAKTHROUGHS

Dr. Ning Li

Insights into the New Techniques Dr. Ning Li Learnt

Cardiac Acupuncture:

  • In the past year, Dr. Ning Li and Dr.Ac R.TCMP learned a very miraculous technique at the Alberta Acupuncturist Continuing Education Study Group, which was about cardiotonic acupuncture.

  • This acupuncture method was taught by Yang Guanhu, a Professor at the Ohio University School of Medicine in the United States.

  • In Acupuncture, this magical technology has proved to have excellent therapeutic effects on coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and atrial fibrillation and has high clinical value in the prevention of myocardial infarction. At the same time, it has a good effect on improving the patient’s immunity.

Functional Entrainment Application Technique:

  • In May 2023, Dr. Ning Li and Dr.Ac R.TCMP went to Dallas, USA, to complete the “Functional Entrainment Application Technique.”

  • “Functional Entrainment Application Technique is an innovative and improved treatment based on NAET by Zhanping Lu – a registered chiropractor in the US, that has shown significant efficacy in treating syndromes caused by allergies,” said Dr. Ning Li.

  • Upon explaining further, he continued, “Notably, it has also exhibited successful outcomes in the treatment of autism, and ADHD, resulting from food intolerance.”

  • Lyme disease caused by tick bites can also be treated with good clinical results.

  • Furthermore, it has a higher clinical treatment effect and is suitable for patients with intolerance to basic nutrients, vitamin D, and environmental toxins.

Cultural Study:

Dr. Ning Li attempted to enhance his clinical vision through cultural study.

  • In July 2023, Dr.Ning Li returned to China for a month of travel and study.

  • In particular, he went to Xi’an – the hometown of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Qin Dynasty in China, to visit and study the famous acupuncture technique from Dr. Yao Xiao.

  • The treatment is actually the original work of Professor Huang Cunzeng, a famous veteran Chinese medicine practitioner in China and former chief Chinese medicine physician of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army General Hospital.

  • This technique has an increased clinical cure rate significantly up to 75% and can greatly alleviate the troubles caused by hearing loss in the elderly, explained Dr. Ning Li.

  • Acquiring proficiency in this method, Dr. Ning Li expanded his capabilities to address auditory challenges with enhanced precision, leading to improved clinical outcomes.
     

Clinical Internship Courses:

  • In September 2023, Dr. Ning Li marked another milestone as he went to Toronto to complete a clinical internship course.

  • This time he focused on Motion acupuncture technology – which was taught by Professor Chen Decheng of Decheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic in New York, USA, and doctoral supervisor of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences.

  • Through this method, Dr. Ning Li gained more accurate and intuitive insights into the patients’ muscle damage, thereby improving the effectiveness of his clinical treatment.
     

Dr. Ning Li’s relentless commitment to excellence and continuous improvement in acupuncture technology underscores his dedication to giving back to the community.

REVIEWS

Highly Recommended

“I had hip strain and sciatic nerve pain. Physiotherapy for 1 month, they can't help me at all. Just 1 treatment with Ning Li made a huge difference! I can't believe I found him from google search. He diagnosed my problem right away and gave his full 1 hour with me. Traditional acupuncture, electrodes, cupping and deep massage! It was an amazing experience. I will see him a few more times and highly recommend!”

Incredible Treatment
