TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE (TCM)

​

TCM takes a holistic approach to health, and wellness, which 

includes incorporating a variety of therapies that prioritizes prevention of imbalances & disease.  The goal is to restore and maintain circulation (free flow of energy) throughout the body in order to prevent disruptions of proper function, illness and pain in the mind, body and spirit.

 

 

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

Historically TCM practitioners have been effectively treating health disturbances for several thousands of years by implementing the five pillars of TCM, which are:  Acupuncture & Acupressure, Chinese Herbal Medicine, TCM Dietary Therapy, and Tui Na Massage, and Qi Gong.

​

All of the above practice work harmoniously together to naturally restore and enhance health and wellness, and to treat a wide variety of health issues.

TCM Food Therapy & Chinese Herbal Medicine Prescriptions

These TCM based services are both safe and effective in restoring balance within the body.  In TCM, food is viewed as medicine and vice versa.  Chinese Herbal Medicine is an all-natural way to restore balance and maintain harmony within the body, however it is prescribed to treat the individual and is not utilized as a one size fits all system.

​

 Tui Na 

Tui Na Massage can be used to restore and maintain circulation and unblock the proper flow of energy (qi) in the body. Tui Na utilizes various hand manipulative hand techniques to activate proper flow throughout the body which improve function and correct imbalances, which can lead to illness, and pain. 

 

Qi Gong 

This breath-mind-body practice unites the connection between breathing, mindfulness and physical postures. 

Qi Gong specifically adds breath work, mindfulness and  movement to harness, restore and balance energy (qi).

​

Facial Rejuvenation & Cosmetic Acupuncture can be used instead of chemical peels, Botox injections,  and surgical face lifts.  The benefits include the following and more:  treat acne, reduce wrinkles, diminish fine lines, remove age spots, and lift droopy eyelids.
