Matt started the practice that would eventually grow into Connecticut Family Acupuncture in a one-room office in West Hartford in August 2007. A native of Connecticut, Matt’s acupuncture education spanned four academic years and over 3,000 hours (including over 1,000 hours of clinical training). He completed an internship in Chengdu, China where he studied with some of China’s best traditional doctors in a busy, mainstream, modern hospital that incorporated both traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Although TCM is over 3,000 years old, Matt believes it is an ever-evolving field and enjoys staying current on all the latest developments and research. While many practitioners adhere strictly to a certain style of TCM, Matt employs a number of different modalities and schools of thought in his treatments. Each treatment is uniquely tailored to promote each patient’s healing.

Hello! I’m Tam, a nationally board certified, licensed acupuncturist with a passion for guiding people towards holistic well-being through natural medicine.

My journey to acupuncture wasn’t linear. As a pre-med student and later an EMT, I witnessed the limitations of conventional medicine firsthand. This sparked my curiosity about Eastern medicine, ultimately leading me to the New England School of Acupuncture (NESA), where I earned my Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MAOM), specializing in pain management and mental health.

Combining my Western background with the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine allows me to offer a unique perspective on healthcare. I understand the body’s complex systems and believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.

In my treatment protocols I create personalized treatment plans that address your specific needs, be it pain, anxiety, stress, or other concerns. My approach blends:

• Effective acupuncture techniques: From traditional needle insertion to trigger point therapy and cupping, I utilize various tools to manage pain effectively.

• Mindfulness and stress management: Recognizing the mind-body connection, I incorporate these practices alongside acupuncture to support emotional well-being.

• A holistic approach: I consider your physical, emotional, and energetic aspects to achieve lasting results and empower you to take charge of your health.

I’m passionate about:

• Helping individuals rediscover their inner balance and achieve optimal health.

• Providing a compassionate and supportive space for healing and growth.

• Bridging the gap between Eastern and Western medicine for comprehensive care.
