About Us

David Nevins Acupuncture Works.

My focus is on you, the whole you for the highest quality of care. I am dedicated to the ethical integration of integrative medical therapies and the preservation of health and well being through the practice of Oriental Medicine. Your care is most important and this is why I practice to do well and do no harm, I act in your best interest and society as a whole, and I protect your ability to make informed decisions about your health care. This is not a competition about whose medicine is better it is about what care will be the best possible choice for your particular health concern. This means that you may be referred to a qualified person who can address your health needs. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine may not be appropriate for your particular health concern.

My site is a resource that you can use to look up personal health questions and get them answered. You will find information on Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Alternative therapies and western medical therapies in research and treatment. Complementary medicine is one where the person gets the best of both medical paradigms. In creating the content for this site I have referenced many web sites, text books, articles, medical doctors MD DO, chiropractors, massage therapists, nurses, and fellow acupuncturists and herbalists to provide accurate information that is helpful. This site is a reference place.

A little about me: I entered the medical field due in part from a recommendation from my Dad and a desire to help people feel better. He saw how difficult it was for me to make a living as an artist and he said to me "look for a job that you (I) can always fall back on", so began my quest in medicine. I started in radiology imaging and ended up in diagnostic medical sonography. Chinese medicine came to me out of a concern that the western model of medicine was limited. I was seeing people with various medical problems not getting better.

I do not dismiss western medicine there are aspects that are excellent as in Chinese medicine there are areas it really is not indicated and a more aggressive approach is necessary. This is why I say that this is not a competition of who's medicine is better, it is about what is best for you, this means integration of these two medical models.

I saw that Oriental medicine and acupuncture was helping people relatively efficiently and it is an art and science that required the use of skill and intellect. The Acupuncture Physician uses his/hers hands and astute observational mind to help people achieve their goals of health and happiness. In China Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and western medicine are used together to achieve greater results.

Before I entered the medical field I was a working potter and sculptor with work shown in area galleries. I currently use found objects to create objects of splendor and beauty. During my artistic phase I was a sound designer/engineer working with area recording studios and theaters producing industrial audiovisual programs for corporations, designing the sound for theater productions, and engineering and mixing music for individual artists and the commercial trade.

My interests are in the arts and sciences, National Public Radio, and WDNA programming, humor, theater, comedy, music form Brazil, Cuba, Latin America, Classical, Dance, Hypnotic, Trance.....lots of music from many genres. I have TiVo, do you? Computer science and programming, I am learning HTML as I type this.

I have a deep respect for Mother Nature and relish any time I get to see wild life of any kind. I also appreciate humor and a good laugh cures so many things that can ail you. I live with Lamar the cat an American short hair with an attitude and his companion Zoe another American short hair. I vacation in the mountains of Western North Carolina for 3 weeks out of the year to reset my mind and body, we all need to quiet down and create the time to focus on who we are, where we are, what do I have to work on both professionally and personally, and where we are going.

Thank you again for visiting.
