Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history of treating a wide range
of both chronic and acute health conditions. TCM is based on five modalities:
exercise, nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, and massage.
Acupuncture is the most widely recognized branch within TCM. Acupuncture
has been shown to help in a wide variety of conditions including the symptoms of:
anxiety, stress, back pain, sciatica, arthritis, allergies, infertility, IBS, migraine
weight loss, chronic fatigue, and insomnia.
TCM treatment starts with a comprehensive assessment. The holistic assessment
may include verbal history taking, observation, palpation, pulse taking, and
observation of the tongue. Depending on the assessment, specific acupuncture
points will be selected to regulate and normalize the flow of Qi, throughout the
meridians.
After treatment, we will provide you with personalized advice on lifestyle,
nutrition, and exercise. In some cases you may be prescribed a Chinese herbal
formula to take as directed by your licensed practitioner. If follow up treatment
will be needed, a detailed plan along with treatment goals will be discussed with you.
We are skilled and experienced in treating a wide range of patient complaints.
