The Power of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine
Purpose & Vision
Being of compassionate service in the field of Chinese medicine allows my patients the ability to approach the world as the best and most authentic version of themselves, because creating a more peaceful and harmonious world requires that we all live up to our highest potential.
Sa'am Acupuncture
Saam acupuncture is a unique acupuncture system that focuses on the identification and treatment of the core imbalances within the body. Also known as Korean four-needle technique, it is structured around the 12 primary channels to restore balance.
Treatment in All Forms
My acupuncture treatments are designed to call on certain energies within the patient that correspond to different facets of the natural world. After all, Chinese medicine is based on long, careful observation of nature and how our planet moves through time and seasons.
Channel System
Most of the methods I use are within the realm of the acupuncture channel system, a network of interconnected meridians that conduct Qi, a term usually translated as ‘energy’ but which in fact encompasses so much more. You can think of it as a sort of vital life force.
Some Conditions Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine can help treat
Acupuncture uses fine, sterile needles to create a minor injury to the body. As with any injury large or small, the body then reacts with a cascade of cells, molecules and chemicals to repair the damage. Since the injury created by the body is tiny compared to the response, the healing effect is net positive. Placing the needles at different points will activate various energetic responses based on what is appropriate for that particular patient. The goal is to create balance where it is needed through the healing properties of the acupuncture channels.

What patients are saying
"Dr. Adam Broder of Earth Brother Wellness has a
knowledgable and gentle approach. As a patient I have received the best attention and care before, during, and after treatments."
"...gentle, professional, persistent and full of knowledge and grace."
"I am thankful to have Dr. Adam Broder on my health team."
Dr. Adam is amazing. He is calming in his demeanor and he knows his art. I went to him three weeks ago with a pinched shoulder and have not had pain in my neck and shoulder area since. I’ve also gone to him for more emotional reasons and I have left feeling much clearer and better than when I saw him. Really highly recommend him!
I've been to several acupuncturists and naturopaths over the years, and Adams' focus on my health issues was complete and I felt good about relating them and discussing them.
My left Achilles tendon improved the day after a session. That felt good and along with pacing myself on hikes, I hope to see further improvement.
Adam is professional in his approach and treatments.
Adam really takes the time to try to understand your diagnosis and provide the best treatment for your condition. He is a skilled and compassionate acupuncturist.
