Here at Align Health Alternatives, we have a STRONG belief that the body has the incredible ability to heal itself. With this mind, our founder, Kerri "Kemiyah" Herndon, has embarked on a journey to prove this . Through AHA, share her experiences in trying new healing modalities as she bravely shares all with those interested in healing their own body, naturally.
The foundation of AHA lays in what is called, Traditional Chinese Medicine "TCM". TCM is a rich medical system that has existed in some form for more than 3,000 years. The earliest-found writings, on pieces of tortoise shells and bone, date back to the Shang Dynasty (15th to 11th centuries BCE).

Ill health is understood as stagnation, deficiency, or the improper movement of qì or xuè, and may result in an imbalance of yīn(陰)and yáng (陽).
