What Does Diana Treat?
Traditional Chinese Medicine can effectively treat or manage many symptoms of illnesses and injuries. Diana Hermann is a licensed acupuncturist and board certified herbalist specially trained to treat the following conditions with acupuncture and/or Chinese herbal medicine. It is recommended that any chronic immune, dermatological or respiratory condition be evaluated by your physician to rule out cancer or other life-threatening issues before seeking TCM treatment. For serious conditions (such as autoimmune diseases and chronic respiratory ailments), TCM will be used as a complement to your western care.
