We are fortunate to have been given the gift of Traditional Chinese Medicine Wisdom Passed from Grand Parents to Grand Daughter to Daughter…Powerfully and Naturally Solving your Health Issues.

“My skill with Traditional Chinese Medicine and herbs and all the wisdom my grandparents passed on is keeping their legacy alive and carrying on a powerful tradition. And to me there is no greater privilege than to help sick, even seriously ill people restore their health and well-being.”

Lydia was very fortunate to have her grandfather as a teacher. He taught her everything he knew about the art and science of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Her informal education began at home when she was about five years old. Her grandfather would bring some herbs home and would test her to see if she could recognize the herbs just by the smell.  He would teach her the traditional Chinese Medicine diagnostic tools and test her to diagnose the patients that came to her grandfather to be healed.

Her Grandfather quickly realized that she possessed an extraordinary talent to diagnose illness and imbalance in patients. He also realized that she had a keen sense of smell which is crucial to becoming a good herbalist.  He saw this potential for her to follow in his footsteps very early on.

Her grandfather had a huge collection of valuable Chinese Medicine textbooks—compilations of theories and formulas by the greatest herbalists from different eras in Chinese herb history. Some formulas are from thousands of years ago.

Many of the ancient formulas are still being used in her practice. They are the foundation upon which her prescriptions are based. Chinese herb theories and formulas are like a poetry that only a native who lives and breathes this special language can understand.

Lydia has simple advice for well-being: “Know oneself, be in control of your food intake and be aware of your body.”

Born and raised in Guang Dong, China, Stephanie comes from a family that is deeply rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture.

With the knowledge and healing techniques passed on through the family for 14 generations, Stephanie naturally gravitated towards healing others while, as a child, watching her mother Lydia treat and heal patients who came from near and far.

Her interest in natural healing began early and by just 14 years of age, Stephanie had started to treat patients under the supervision of her Mother.

Upon moving to California, Stephanie obtained an acupuncture license in California, as well as a national certification from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

In addition to her regular practice, she is also a certified Acupuncture Detoxification Specialist for her work involving addiction, mental health and more.

To further advance her skills in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Stephanie received additional clinical training at the renowned ShuGuang Hospital in Shanghai.

While studying under the highly-respected practitioner Dr. Hong Sheng Zhan in the orthopedic department, she treated over 10,000 patients. She also spent extensive time in the acupuncture, oncology and traditional herbal medicine department to increase her clinical experience.

Stephanie’s commitment to helping others and her genuine passion for Chinese medicine led her to found Total Harmony Health, which continues to help thousands of patients per year in the Los Angeles area.

“The way she took care of me is one of a kind, Lydia is a gifted healer. I left her clinic feeling stronger and pain-free. The following morning, I honestly don’t have the pelvic pain and discomfort anymore. I was able to move without cringing or grimacing. I cannot thank Linda and Bruce for their remarkable service! . . .”
