Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!

As December and the short days of the winter season are upon us, it is good to reflect on the year we are completing. 2015 was an exciting year for China Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Last March, we said good-bye to the Uptown clinic after 20 wonderful years in that neighborhood. Although it was sad to leave, our goal was to provide a better patient experience at our beautiful St. Paul location. We now see patients in St. Paul 6 days a week.

In 2015 we started a new branding initiative. As we have grown, it seemed time to launch a new logo and website. With help from many of you, we have new content on the website and a technology system compatible with mobile devices. New patients can now book initial consultations right from the website. We hope to expand this feature in the future to allow existing patient bookings as well. The banner on the outside of the clinic is a preview of our new logo and design direction. A new permanent yard sign is in the works as well as new brochures, business cards and appointment cards.

In the spring we hosted a Garden Party, spending a day planting, weeding, talking and laughing; all while making our front lawn so pretty. Many of you joined us for our open house in October, to celebrate our twentieth anniversary as a clinic. It was a delightfully warm and sunny afternoon spent sharing good memories. Thank you to all that helped make the day special.

All of us at the China Institute wish you a very healthy and happy holiday season! We look forward to helping you achieve optimal health throughout the upcoming year.

种树的最好时间是20年前;第二好的时间是现在。

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now.


We are celebrating 20 years of China Institute.

Founded October 15, 1995

October 15, 2015, marked the China Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine’s 20th year delivering the highest level of Traditional Chinese Medicine to the Twin Cities. We are grateful for your support, trust and confidence in our clinic and hope to serve you for many more years!

In celebration of the anniversary, China Institute hosted an open house on October 17th. It was a beautiful afternoon filled with heart-felt memories of the years past, delicious functional foods like soup and stir-fry and good conversations.

Thanks to all who came to the event and to those who sent us good wishes, you are what makes this place special. Enjoy the photos taken at the event below
