Greg Johnston, M.O.M., L. Ac.
Greg Johnston has been involved in martial arts and qi gong for fifteen years and Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) for ten years. In his desire to bring Chinese Medicine to as many people in the Roanoke Valley as possible, he founded Dancing Crane Center of Chinese Medicine(DCCCM). Since the spring of 2004 Greg has developed a practice of over two thousand patients and provided thousands of treatments to those in need. Specializing in the treatment of pain, stress reduction, internal medicine and longevity medicine, Greg uses all five branches of Chinese Medicine to provide a comprehensive treatment strategy.
Greg has also begun volunteering with the Global Alternative Healthcare Project. Their mission is to bring Chinese Medicine to impoverished individuals with little means or access to healthcare. So far this has taken him to remote villages in the mountainous regions of Nepal and the poverty stricken areas of the Navajo reservation in Arizona. He continues to seek new ways to further this work locally.
Greg is certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental medicine(NCCAOM). He holds certifications in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology and Oriental Bodywork Therapy. He is one of a handful nation wide to hold all three certifications. He is licensed by the Virginia State Board of Medicine, Lic.#0121000321.
In addition to private practice, Greg also teaches classes in Qi Gong, Chinese Medical Nutrition, and various aspects of Chinese Medicine.
