My acupuncture doctor used to be a physical therapist. Had an injured rotator cuff and someone recommended acupuncture. He healed well and immediately studied acupuncture at a college in the east coast, then got his PhD in the school of Eastern medicine. I like that because he has a well rounded knowledge of the body due to his knowledge of Eastern and western therapies.

My mother (and I to some extent) has an issue with her right knee. He told me some exercises to do to strengthen the inner leg muscles to help the issue out and they have worked.
