Meet Timothy Charles Armstrong, L.Ac
Although acupuncture relieved Tim’s severe occipital headaches, the path to becoming an acupuncturist wasn’t straightforward. He first graduated from Indiana University Bloomington with a bachelor’s in French and English literature.
One night at a party, Tim connected with a good friend’s sister who lived in Hong Kong and expressed an interest in moving there. He ended up doing just that. While there, Tim worked at the Singapore International School and took a deep dive into Chinese culture.
When he returned to the States, Tim attended Emperor’s College of Traditional Oriental Medicine in Santa Monica, California, where he earned his degree in 2002, after four years of intensive study and training. Tim is licensed to practice in Georgia with the State of Georgia Composite Medical Board.
With over two decades of experience, Tim brings considerable knowledge to his practice. In addition to practicing acupuncture, he can also provide dietary advice, herbal formulations, cupping, and other Chinese therapeutic techniques. Tim is contracted with the Veterans Administration (VA) as a Care in the Community provider.
Holistic Healing Approach
Taking a holistic approach to helping his patients, Tim can address musculoskeletal issues, chronic pain, or specific conditions like eczema or migraines, frozen shoulder, and many other ailments. He always provides customized treatments to meet the individual health needs of his patients.
Relieving Pain & Helping People Enjoy Life
“Everybody wants to get better so they don’t have any impingement on their daily life. They want to be healthy, live their life and not be in chronic pain. And that’s what acupuncture does really, really well for people who get to a certain age.” Tim finds it particularly rewarding to help relieve patients’ chronic nagging pain. One of his patients is a woman who had knee pain, which went away after several treatments.
Outside the Practice Interests
When he’s not at Southern Chiropractic & Wellness Center, Tim is an avid reader with a keen interest in 20th-century history. He also has three dogs: a Bichon Lhasa, a Shih Tzu and a Chihuahua.
