My Practice
Traditional Oriental Medicine is arguably the oldest continuously practiced medicine on earth. With over three thousand recorded years of experience, research and development, it is uniquely suited to address most human ailments – from the most timeless, to the most modern.
As a clinician, I love my work. The 50 plus years of study, alongside more than 30 years of intense clinical practice, has created a marvelous world. My patients have taught me more than I can ever begin to articulate. In this deeply profound medicine I am endlessly humbled, continually learning and continually evolving. The clinic, my practice and my teaching also continue to evolve into new dimensions as well, many of which utterly astonish me. The more I learn, the more I am in awe at the wonder of being born a human being.
My specialty is Health and Longevity – or ‘Yang Sheng,’ as this branch of medicine is known in Chinese. I have access to an incredible toolkit of therapies and tools for health. I employ ancient and modern diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, traditional and cutting-edge knowledge – as well as my vast herbal pharmacy of the highest quality Chinese herbal preparations. Hundreds of formulas, individual herbs, lifestyle tools, and books provide the support that my patients have come to depend on. We also have access to the virtual world – through telemedicine, phone consultation and virtual teaching I am now more available than ever.
In addition, for absolute epidemiological safety, we offer a contact-free, transmission-free, pick-up system for our patients to receive their custom prescribed herbal formulas, books and supplies.
Meet Jim Dixon
Jim Dixon has spent his life in the pursuit and practice of ancient ways of knowledge. From childhood on, he has had the privilege of being the student of several extraordinary teachers in the Meditative, Martial, and Healing Arts.
After moving to Taos, New Mexico as a young man, he pursued the Rescue and Emergency Medical Arts (becoming a Certified EMT, a Swiftwater Rescue Technician, a National Ski Patrol Member, etc.). He served as a white-water river guide in summers and as a Ski Patroller in the Winters.
In May of 1989, as a member of Taos Search and Rescue, he was involved in a miraculous event, a rescue that changed his life forever, and led him to pursue the Art of Medicine full-time as his true life’s calling.
For over 30 years he has continually focused and refined his abilities as a Doctor of Oriental Medicine (DOM, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac & CH), working in both hospital and out-patient clinical settings. He has also served as a teacher in multiple disciplines, bringing unique skill sets to many students both in New Mexico and Hawai’i.
“Treating a disease after it has become manifest, is like waiting until you are thirsty to begin digging a well.”
