Adam Griffin, L.Ac., MSOM, is the owner of Acutonix Wellness Center. He is a California Licensed Acupuncturist who trained at the famous Southwest Acupuncture College in Santa Fe, New Mexico, after completing his undergraduate studies at the University of California at Berkeley. During his extensive training both in Santa Fe and Beijing, Adam Griffin decided to specialize in Orthopedic acupuncture. Mr. Griffin has also spent over 25 years focused on helping patients with chronic lung conditions like COPD, IPF, chronic asthma, and sarcoidosis. Utilizing a vast array of natural formulas, acupuncture and respiratory healing techniques, Mr. Griffin has helped countless patients improve their lung health. As an intercollegiate athlete, he became acutely aware of the role acupuncture could play in healing sports injuries and conditions related to chronic pain. His post graduate work included working toward a specialization in rheumatology and sports medicine with world class leaders such as Fred Lerner, Dr. Hua Gu, and Richard Tan.

​

In 1999, Adam Griffin opened Acutonix in Venice, California, on the world famous Abbot Kinney Blvd. This was an incredibly exciting time, as the clinic became very popular and grew quickly to become a leading center for the practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Los Angeles. 

​

Today, Acutonix focuses on revolutionary care for sciatica, back pain, COPD and a myriad of lung conditions. Adam Griffin also has a keen interest in nutrition and food-based approaches to wellness. He utilizes varied approaches in the treatment of each person, and uses food as an integral part of his care. His food ideals are carried forward from the Weston Price and Epi-Paleo tradition espoused by Neurologist Jack Kruse. Adam Griffin firmly believes in the necessity of healthy fats and limiting processed foods in our modern diet. He is currently working on two books that incorporate his vision of a healthy community through food and natural medicine.

​

Adam Griffin loves to play golf, cycle, cook for his family, backpack, fly-fish, and surf. You can find him at his brand new Culver City Acupuncture clinic every week—where his true love for this medicine can be seen and experienced by everyone.

TCM

Culver City Lung Health and Wellness Natural Therapy

Traditional Chinese Medicine is based upon the premise of balance between the body’s core organs and the structure (Yin) and function (Yang) within each organ. COPD is considered a lung Yin deficiency in Traditional Chinese Medicine. 

 

​The use of acupuncture can assist in the restoration of lung function. Traditional Chinese Medicine that targets lung Yin and acupuncture has been improving patients quality of life.*

Patient Success

Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the results of your treatment. When I started with the treatment, I was on 2 liters of oxygen 24 hours a day. I now only use the oxygen at night and when doing treadmill 2.8 mph at 3.5 grade for 40 minutes 4-5 times a week. I consider this a significant improvement, and actually don’t have to see my pulmonologist for another year.**
