There is almost no focus on preventative care, since there’s no money in it. With that said, there is still value to western medicine. I’m very grateful to the surgeon who did my ACL repair surgery and the techs who helped me with rehab to get me back to 100% and on the mats. Acupuncture and turmeric are great but they don’t grow new ligaments. I would say take the middle approach. Stay healthy and live right, but be willing to use modern medicine when necessary.</p></blockquote><p></p>
