The 4,000 year old practice of TCM has gained worldwide acceptance for its treatment of pain and certain diseases. Chinese medicine is based in theory that when the body’s energy or Qi (Chee) are balanced the body is well. Qi is the general term for all your body’s energies, electrical, chemical, magnetic and radiant. Nature’s laws govern our bodies and our Qi. Gravity, time, inertia, friction, yin and yang, all affect us inside and out. Energy must flow. Flows of Qi and Blood are the basics of good health. When they are abundant and flowing, we are well. When blood or Qi are weak or stuck we become ill. TCM uses Acupuncture and Herbal medicine to balance these energies to promote good health through abundant flow.

Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles, (sometimes in conjunction with electrical stimulus), on the body’s surface, in order to influence physiologic functioning of the body. Acupuncture is used to balance the body’s energy flows to promote healing, improve health and alleviate pain.

Chinese Herbs and herbal medicines have been used for thousands of years to improve health and vitality. Many of these formulas have also been used for treating various illnesses and restoring the normal body functions. One of the most appealing qualities of Chinese herbs therapy is the low risk of adverse reaction or side effects.
