About Eyton Shalom

Eyton J. Shalom, M.S., L.Ac.

Specializing in Pain Relief, Sports Medicine, Allergies, Skin Diseases, Childhood Illnesses, and Chronic Fatigue/Immune Disorders

Ayurvedic and Herbal Consultation Available by Internet or Phone

The understanding and treatment of disease and pain with an integrated approach to Asian medicine has been my focus since 1992.

My overall approach to medicine is agricultural--I believe a good doctor is like a good gardener; preparing and nurturing the soil, working with the seasons, to make healthy plants. This grows out of my practice as a Buddhist, and out of my 12 years living in a Yoga monastery, including 3 years in India and Sri Lanka.

For this reason i have also learned Ayurveda, the classical medicine of India. I believe Ayurveda has the most sophisticated approach to using diet, herbs, and lifestyle counseling to tailor medicine to your individual bodymind type, called Dosha. Different types of people have varied needs.

I was one of the first acupuncturists in San Diego to master the
myofascial approach to treating pain, as introduced by Drs. Travel and
Simons, M.D. I am expert at this kind of specialized Trigger and Motor Point acupuncture which gives very rapid and lasting results.

I have published online journal articles regularly, and was a Professor at Pacific College for 5 years. I have also served the California Acupuncture Licensing Board as a Subject Matter Expert in Chinese Herbs.

My passions include ethnic natural food cooking, yoga, meditation, poetry, hiking, art, film, singing, and classical music.

I look forward to assisting you in your pursuit of health,

Eyton Shalom
