Doctor Phuntsog Wangmo’s journey into Tibetan medicine
Doctor Phuntsog Wangmo, a Tibetan residing in Massachusetts, serves as the director and principal teacher at the Shang Shung Tibetan School of Medicine, established by her guru, Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche.
With over two decades of dedicated service, Phuntsog’s journey into Tibetan medicine was sparked by a deep-rooted passion for healing, nurtured by her brother’s influence and her fascination with pulse diagnosis.
She has delved into Vipassanā meditation and the Bon tradition, enriching her understanding of holistic healing modalities.
Drawing from her mentorship under esteemed teachers like Marcia Rose and Tempel Smith, Phuntsog aspires to disseminate the profound teachings of Dharma.
Embracing a compassionate approach, she views her clients not as patients but as family, fostering trust as a cornerstone of healing.
Phuntsog’s remarkable anecdotes from her work in Eastern Tibet underscore her belief in the transformative power of empathy and understanding in restoring well-being.
She advocates for a harmonious integration of traditional wisdom and contemporary practices to address the complex challenges of mental health in today’s fast-paced world.
With a heart full of gratitude, Phuntsog invites all seekers to experience the healing sanctuary of The Buddhist Center, a place she cherishes for its profound impact on humanity.
