Accupuncture – an interview with Tamara Cox
ByI have never personally experienced accupuncture, but I had my first opportunity to talk to an accupuncturist from Durham, NC. Her name is Tamara Cox
and she attended a 20 year old school in Boone, NC and is now licensed in the state of NC.
She explained to me that in Eastern Medicine, the body and the emotions are both considered when making a diagnosis and deciding on a treatment plan. Though Tamara believes Accupuncture can do much to restore the energy balance within the body, she also believes the patient has to live well by correct principles. Just getting accupuncture and not eating a good diet, getting enough rest, or dealing with stressers in your life is a poor balance and not conducive to healing.
Tamara told me that most of her patients come to her for pain relief. She takes a medical history and tries to understand where energy flow in the body may be blocked or impeded so she can select the correct way to alleviate the symptoms by improving the flow of energy. She explains it much bettter than I can in this podcast of our interview at Peace Tree Village where she is part of the co-op.
