Born into a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners, Chaoping Lan, L.Ac. inheriting a deep wealth of family medical traditions and ancestral healing formulas. As a veteran TCM expert with over 25 years of clinical experience in both China and the United States, he carries forward generations of family medical wisdom, compassion, and healing arts. Lan received systematic, formal training in both modern Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine, graduating with degrees in Clinical Medicine from Zhongshan Medical University (now Sun Yat-sen University) and in Acupuncture and Moxibustion from Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine. He practiced in China for over 15 years before later completing advanced acupuncture training at the Midwest College of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine.

Lan specializes in using ancestral meridian-unblocking acupuncture techniques to treat various acute, chronic, and complex pain or traumatic pain conditions. These include sciatica, frozen shoulder, neck, back, and lumbar pain, knee and ankle joint pain, and other neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. His pain relief treatments yield immediate results, with the vast majority of severe pain cases experiencing a significant reduction in pain within minutes of needle insertion.

Additionally, Lan is highly proficient in his family’s proprietary “Soothe, Regulate, and Tonify” method for gynecology. He has accumulated extensive experience in treating gynecological disorders, including painful menstruation, irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, breast nodules, uterine fibroids, and various other conditions affecting the breasts, ovaries, and uterus. Lan also possesses unique clinical expertise in dermatology, achieving remarkable efficacy in treating skin conditions such as urticaria, eczema, and fungal infections. Furthermore, he is dedicated to researching complex internal medicine and pediatric conditions, as well as providing supportive care for oncology patients and specialized constitution-balancing therapies. He is dedicated to researching complex internal medicine and pediatric conditions—including refractory cough, asthma, palpitations, diarrhea, constipation, and intractable insomnia—and provides supportive care for cancer patients and specialized constitution-regulating therapies.

In his clinical practice, Lan seamlessly integrates ancestral traditions, classical Chinese medicine principles, and modern clinical experience. He focuses on identifying the root cause of disease rather than simply relieving surface symptoms. Tailored to each patient’s unique constitution and condition, his customized treatment plans comprehensively combine Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, cupping, and moxibustion.

Lan is widely trusted by his patients for his thorough evaluations, calm bedside manner, and practical, results-driven approach. Fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, and English, he serves a diverse patient population with exceptional clarity, warmth, and care.
