Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views the body as an intricate system of organs connected by pathways known as meridians. Good health depends upon the smooth flow of energy (Qi), through these meridians. When the flow of Qi is blocked or disrupted, pain and illness are the result. Acupuncture restores the smooth flow of Qi by inserting fine, hair-like needles at specific points along the meridians. As the flow of Qi & blood returns to normal, health and well-being are restored.


Herbs

For thousands of years, Traditional Chinese Medical practitioners have used herbs with medicinal properties for healing. Western Pharmacology is now beginning to acknowledge these natural counterparts without the side effects of processed pharmaceuticals. In TCM, herbs are almost always prescribed in conjunction with acupuncture and other treatments. They are extremely effective in unblocking the flow of Qi and fortifying the internal organs. Herbal formulas are specifically designed for the individual needs of the patient.
