"WHAT DRAWS ME TO TRADITIONAL KOREAN MEDICINE, AND IN PARTICULAR, THE JASENG APPROACH? THEY DON'T SHUN TECHNOLOGY OR MODERN MEDICINE, IN FACT THEY EMBRACE IF. THEY USE MODERN IMAGING TECHNIQUES AND WHEN NEEDED, MODERN PAIN MANAGEMENT PROTOCOLS INCLUDING PHYSICAL THERAPY AND INJECTIONS. THEY USE THIS TECHNOLOGY TO HELP THEM APPLY THE ANCIENT WISDOM OF TRADITIONAL KOREAN MEDICINE."
