How do you view AcuGraph?

If you’re like most acupuncturists, you probably have quite a bit of skepticism.

So today, I’ve got a story for you.

We hired Kimberly Thompson, L.Ac. nearly 4 years ago to help with some research projects we were doing. At the time, she liked the job but she was TRADITIONAL TCM practitioner! She was NOT convinced AcuGraph had anything to offer her. Here’s the story of how that changed over time – she went from viewing AcuGraph as a “distraction” to an indispensable part of her treatment strategy.

Here’s the video of her story:

Kimberly’s case studies have now become some of our most popular blog posts. She shares her expertise in graph analysis with acupuncturists around the world. Why? Because she is passionate about her work and has learned how to become successful by incorporating modern technology into her acupuncture clinic.

In Kimberly’s own words:

“I’m a typical acupuncturist and NOT a technical guru, BUT I’ve found ways to easily include technology in my clinic–and I’m successful. You don’t have to be some super nerd to make this stuff work. If you want to be successful, there are modern tools available. You just have to know how to find them and utilize them.” This is a great opportunity to select the AcuGraph system for your practice and use it as a tax deduction for 2014!
