About Us
Kunde (pronounced: kün-dey, spelled: ཀུན་བདེ།) Institute, a center for Tibetan wellness and healing, was founded by Doctor Yangdron Kalzang in 2004. The name “Kunde” was given to the center by her root teacher, Kenpo Troru Tsenam Rinpoche, one of the most highly respected scholars of traditional Tibetan Medicine in Tibet. In Tibetan, “Kunde” means “may all beings be healthy, wealthy and happy.” Dedicated to the mission of benefiting all people with affordable, integrative health services, Kunde offers a variety of traditional Tibetan and Asian medical modalities. Our offices are located in Daly City and Berkeley.
We offer an integrative and holistic form of wellness and healing in the San Francisco Bay Area. Our treatments are based on traditional Tibetan medical modalities, including herbal remedies, heated oil therapy, ku-nye (therapeutic body treatment), sang-bom (copper cupping), acupuncture, and wellness consultation based on mind/body healing and dietary and lifestyle guidance – all with the goal of promoting overall wellness through mind and body balance.In addition to offering quality patient care, we believe in sharing medical knowledge widely and generously, we seek to provide a context for establishing a cohesive intercultural and interdisciplinary field of medical research and clinical applications that will result in collaborative efforts to develop integrative models of healthcare, with the goal of reducing suffering and improving understanding between diverse medical systems.
