Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture

Chinese medicine is a comprehensive system of health care with a continuous clinical tradition of more than 3,000 years. It includes acupuncture and herbal treatment, as well as massage, dietary therapy, Qi Gong meditation, and exercise. These therapies work with the natural vital energies that are inherent with all living things to promote the body’s ability to heal itself. This health care system has effectively served China and the surrounding countries for many centuries and  is rapidly gaining popularity in the West. In Asia, the use of acupuncture, moxibustion (a warming process), and herbal remedies have long been known to enhance the immune system and sense of well-being that are essential in keeping the body strong in its resistance to disease.

Chinese medicine is a thorough and gentle approach to healing. Each patient brings a unique clinical picture to the practitioner and receives treatment tailored to their specific needs. This form of healing is gentle, holistic, and safe in its approach.
