what attracted me to chinese medicine?

I love alternative(not so alternative anymore) healing.I was diagnosed with cervical cancer(stage2) and possible breast cancer, when I was in my early twenties.I was saddened by the treatment I got and how these parts of my body were seen as separate from the whole.It was awake up call to me. Very soon after that I moved to California,I just new something better was waiting for me out here.I wanted to work in medicine(my background was psychology). I looked into med school, the homeopathic school, natropathy, and then finally acupuncture. I decided the first step i would take in that direction would be massage therapy.
I have been working as a massage therapist for ten years and I figured it was time to further my education.I have experienced great results with acupuncture and loved the idea of combining needles and herbs.
I am healthier now than i ever have been, thanks to the wealth of knowledge there is about natural health.
