Acupuncturist & Herbalist Job Description (Link to Full Ad)

ACUPUNCTURIST & HERBALIST
OVERVIEW
For more than 3,000 years, acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have been used to improve wellness and quality of
life. Acupuncture and TCM are safe, natural and drug-free ways to trigger your body’s built-in healing systems. TCM focuses on the
root cause of emotional and physical symptoms, rather than just treating the symptoms themselves.
With a contemporary east meets west approach, Altitude Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine clinic located in Commerce City proudly
continues these traditions in the Denver, Colorado area communities. Modern, professional, pristine and inviting, the Altitude clinic has
four private treatment rooms, with a loyal client and community following that continues to grow.
