Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of therapy that promotes natural healing of the body. The science and art of acupuncture involves insertion of needles into specific points along the meridians of the body. Acupuncture forms a branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which originated in China over 5000 years ago. Currently, acupuncture is a safe and effective natural therapy and an increasingly popular form of healthcare that is used by a wide range of cultural and social backgrounds. Some studies show that it activates the nervous system, initiating a cascade of hormones and neurotransmitters that influence the body's own internal regulating systems, promoting health and healing.
The major benefits of Acupuncture are as follows:
Cupping
Cupping is a method of treatment that relieves pain in the body through the use of suction. The vacuum created inside the cup anchors the cup to the skin and pulls the skin upward into the cup. The suction on the skin opens the pores, stimulates the flow of blood and Qi, breaks up stagnation, and creates a way for toxins to be drawn out of the body. It relieves aches and pains, improves circulation, and also helps with respiratory and digestive issues.
Chinese Herbology
When an herbal formula is prescribed for you, it is made of several different herbs specifically chosen for your health condition and constitution. As opposed to Western medicine, the foundation of this approach is to support the body's natural ability to heal itself. The goal is to heal the root of the problem, not just the symptoms. One of the best things about Chinese Herbal Medicine is the low risk of adverse reaction or side effects. Herbal formulas are available in capsules, tincture, granulated powder, and raw form.
Tuina
Tuina is a form of Chinese manipulative therapy often used in conjunction with acupuncture, cupping, and Chinese herbalism. Tuina utilizes soft tissue manipulation, acupuncture points, external herbal medicines, and therapeutic stretches to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal and internal organ disorders.
