The clinic's specialized approach, meditation tradition, and historical research context in Fresh Meadows, Queens
Huo's Energy Medicine is Dr. Frank Huo's distinctive practice approach, offered alongside specialized acupuncture at the Fresh Meadows, Queens clinic. He describes it using concepts from his meditation and energy traditions.
A consultation is an opportunity to ask what each service involves, why it is suggested, and what progress would mean for you. No particular result or number of visits is guaranteed.
The clinic's biography describes Dr. Huo's involvement in energy medicine research at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center with Dr. Mehmet Oz. The historical studies referenced below explored laboratory measurements; they do not establish that energy medicine treats cancer or other diseases in people.
Read about acupuncture services or ask about treatment packages. Discuss how any proposed service fits with your existing medical care, and confirm current fees and package terms.
Dr. Huo's tradition describes health through concepts of energy balance. These are the practice's philosophical explanations, rather than established medical causes of disease.
Pre-natal energy: In this tradition, an inherited or foundational life force.
Post-natal energy: In this tradition, energy associated with food, breathing, and daily life.
Dr. Huo uses these concepts to explain his approach to meditation and energy practice. They are not a substitute for a medical diagnosis.
Your symptoms and health history should also be assessed using appropriate medical care.
Ask how the proposed care relates to your goals and when progress will be reviewed.
Dr. Huo may discuss meditation, energy concepts, acupuncture, or herbal medicine as part of the clinic approach. Ask which services are being recommended and why.

Specialized acupuncture and Huo's Energy Medicine are central to the clinic approach.
Laboratory findings and media coverage need to be distinguished from evidence of benefit in patients.
Research referenced by the clinic includes a 1999 study of tumor cells in a laboratory and a 2001 study of electrophotographic imaging. Neither was a clinical trial showing that energy medicine treats disease in patients.
The 1999 authors reported that the measured changes were close to the assay's margin of error, limiting interpretation. The 2001 paper examined imaging patterns rather than health outcomes. The original abstracts below provide the study designs and limitations.
