Modern Cupping, WellCare Shifts, and Health Tips with Dr. Tom Ingegno

Truth Tastes Funny with Hersh Rephun

Some call it "Grandma's Medicine," because of its simplicity. But Hersh does a deep dive with Dr. Tom Ingegno, DACM, LAC, the best-selling author of "The Cupping Book: Unlocking the Secrets of Ancient Healing". Dr. Tom owns and operates Charm City Integrative Health, a multifaceted clinic NYT bestseller and futurist David Houle called the "Future of Medicine." His clinic provides a multidimensional approach to reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and regulating the immune system to help people thrive.

In addition to nearly a quarter century of clinical experience, Dr. Tom has taught at two universities of East Asian Medicine and served as Chair of the Maryland Board of Acupuncture. He was the director of acupuncture for a chain of wellness centers in the mid-Atlantic. Dr. Tom has been featured in both consumer and professional media, spreading his message of health using modern research, traditional practices, and humor to make complex theories and treatments understandable. His professional passion is to help patients and like-minded practitioners develop no-nonsense practices to allow people to maximize their health.
