Anna Noyes is a native of Richmond whose interest in acupuncture began at a young age. While studying abroad in Beijing, she received Chinese herbal medicine for the first time. After experiencing the effectiveness of this medicine herself, she wanted to know more about acupuncture as a solution for pain management. In order tolay the best foundation for further practical study, Anna pursued a self-designed major in Asian Studies with a focus on Chinese history and medicine.
At the New England School of Acupuncture, Anna completed a four-year graduate program in acupuncture and herbal medicine. During graduate school, her interests and treatment focus expanded to include not only pain management, but women's health, digestive disorders and allergies. Her dream is to see professional Chinese medicine become integrated into the health care of Americans. Her belief is that learning is a journey that will never end and she is constantly looking for ways to improve both herself and her acupuncture to better serve the community.

Taehee Cho was born and grew up in Korea. He reads both Chinese and Korean which has allowed him to probe the depths in terms of his acupuncture study. This has granted him a deeper understanding of the effectiveness and mechanisms of oriental medicine. What most attracted him to acupuncture is that oriental medicine has a holistic focus which emphasizes the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. Prior to becoming an acupuncturist, Taehee attended the Korea Baptist Theological Seminary where he received a Bachelor's degree in social work. He also studied at the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary where he received a Master's Degree in Christian education. His current mission is to reach out and help others with his unique skills. Taehee is confident that acupuncture can address the underlying origin of pain conditions or disease states in a way which is totally different from just taking pain killers or masking symptoms with drugs.
While studying and practicing at South Baylo University, Taehee utilized many different kinds of acupuncture techniques including Tung's, Sa-Am, Five Element, and Korean Hand to determine what works best for each individual. As a result, he had a very high patient satisfaction rate throughout his training. Taehee is extremely passionate and eager to devote himself to the patients of the Advanced Wellness Centre to improve the quality of their lives.
