Abstract
At the heart of Dr. Cai’s practices are her holistic approach to healing and her belief in the collaborative relationship of patient and doctor. From 1986 to 1997, Dr Cai practiced and taught at Chengdu University's TCM Hospital, a major teaching hospital in China that specializes in integrating Eastern and Western medicine. Dr. Cai first worked there as a gynecologist and then as a senior and chief physician overseeing new residents. In 1997, Dr. Cai moved to Santa Monica, CA, where she opened her own acupuncture clinic in 2007. In her more than 25 years of practice as a doctor of TCM, Dr. Cai has published numerous papers, and her research with a former colleague in China is still relied on as a remedy for treating uterine fibroid tumors.
