About me
Hi! I’m Dr. Siatnee (pronounced See-et-Nee) Chong (DACM)
I am a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine which is DACM. Chong is a Chinese name, 張雪妮. That might be obvious to you. What does it mean? Chong = family name. Siatnee = Snow lady, as I was born in winter. In western astrology, I am an Aquarius. In Eastern, the elements in my chart puts me as a Fire & Earth Dragon. - I practice acupuncture, herbal medicine and eastern medicine in San Diego, CA.
I believe in balancing of body-mind-spirit. - I’m a spiritual warrior. I start and end my day with mindfulness practice.- This is a platform for me to share wisdom of the mind, body & spirit.
I grew up with eastern medicine as a cornerstone for our family health. I’m a woman just like you. The only difference is that I grew up with ancient Eastern Medicine; Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, Herbs and Energy Healing. Whether it was a cold, ear ache, sore leg or hormonal problems my family sought expert Chinese medicine help and it worked!
These experiences go as far back as I can remember. They spurred me to have a deep interest in health and wellness from a young age. I’ve been practicing yoga, tai chi, Qi Qong, meditation and mindful practice. After earning my bachelors in education from the University of Edinburgh and working the corporate world, I realized in my heart I have a calling to help people. It got louder and louder until I had to act. I went back to school and earned my masters and Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese medicine along with becoming a Reiki Master. I started my own practice called Chong Medicine in San Diego. My practice has been successful and a very rewarding experience. Nothing feels better than knowing I’ve helped someone have a better day.
90% of my patients are women and they all suffer from the same hormonal problems. They struggle with hormonal imbalances, PMS, menopause, mood swings, hot flashes, challenges with weight, diet, anxiety, anger and depression. Does that sound familiar? With that in mind, I have decided to focus all of my energy on women's health. As a woman, I get it. Trust me when I say that. When meeting with friends, colleagues or anyone from my neighbors to people at the dog park the same topic keeps coming up over and over. Women's health, hormones, PMS and Menopause. Lots of women are suffering, trying to balance work, life, family, their own growth.
The bummer part is that there’s only 24 hours in a day. I can only see so many patients. I’m limited because of time. I can’t help more women. I want to spread my message about women's health and wellness. I realized the best way to do this is to combine all of my education to bring courses, programs and products to a broader audience around the world. I want to help you live a better life!
