“A path is made by walking on it.”
– Chuang Tzu
Asher Loring is a nationally certified and state licensed acupuncturist. He received his Master’s of Acupuncture from Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine and a Bachelor’s in Political Economy from Evergreen State College.
Asher has success in treating physical ailments, gynecology, digestive issues, mental-emotional, and many different presentations of pain. Asher’s treatment style is heavily influenced by the I Ching, classical texts and the balance method. The method primarily uses points away from the area of pain/dysfunction mostly on the arms, hands, legs, feet. This allows treatments to be conducted in group settings reducing the costs for patients and enabling a consistent therapeutic dose. In addition, Asher likes to implement other modalities in his private treatments depending on the patients need:
- Cupping and Gua Sha – myofascial release
- Tui Na – manual massage
- Moxibustion – Heat therapy
In his free time you can find Asher running, playing sports, gardening and propagating native plants or studying classical literature and practicing qigong.
