As we step deeper into spring, we find ourselves approaching a meaningful seasonal threshold in the traditional East Asian calendar: Lìxià (立夏) — the Start of Summer.
This is the moment when nature begins to stretch fully into warmth, when blossoms give way to fruit, and the energy of growth turns outward. It’s a time of movement, vitality, and potential. Just as plants root deeper and rise taller, we too are invited to stretch, open, and transform.
In the rhythms of traditional medicine, summer is associated with the Heart, with joy, circulation, clarity, and connection. But reaching these states often requires intention — especially after seasons of challenge.
To Our Red Earth Community
As this new season begins, we want to pause and share a more personal message with you.
Over the past few years, we’ve all lived through extraordinary change. Since 2019, we’ve faced a global pandemic, collective uncertainty, and real challenges in how we live and access healthcare. No matter your story, it’s likely that the pressure of these years has left an imprint.
Through it all, Red Earth has remained rooted in one guiding principle:
To support your body’s innate ability to heal.
Since David opened the clinic in 2007, we’ve had the honor of treating over 2,500 patients and delivering more than 34,000 treatments. Each one is a reminder of what’s possible when care is personalized, grounded in ancient wisdom, and offered with genuine respect.
We’ve witnessed deep healing: pain fading, vitality returning, fertility restored. Many of you refer friends and family years after your own care — which speaks to the impact this work can have, long after a treatment ends.
During the early days of the pandemic, we kept our doors open by investing in advanced air purification systems and applying classical herbal principles to help patients navigate illness — often when options felt limited. We were here then, and we’re here now.
If You’re New to Us
We know this might be your first time hearing about Red Earth. If you’ve landed here feeling tired, out of balance, or simply curious about a different way — we want you to know: you’re not alone.
We offer care that begins with listening. Not rushing. Not fixing. But truly hearing your story and building a treatment plan around the whole of you — your body, your history, your goals.
For many, this care is transformational. It’s slower than what you might be used to. But it’s deeper. And it’s designed to help you step out of the chronic cycles that so many live with for years.
What We Believe
We believe in:
- Helping people feel seen, not just treated.
- Working with the body, not against it.
- Building long-term health, not temporary fixes.
- And honoring the seasons as guides in your healing.
As we welcome the beginning of summer, may you feel encouraged to listen to your body, reconnect with your purpose, and take steps toward the kind of health that is grounded, expansive, and self-sustaining.
We’re here if you need a place to start — or restart.
With warmth and respect,
David & the Red Earth Team
