MY TREATMENTS
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves burning dried mugwort (moxa) on or near specific acupressure points on the body. This therapy aims to stimulate circulation and enhance the flow of Qi (vital energy) through the body's meridians, which are pathways that link various organs and functions
What is TCM?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic system of health and healing that has been developed and practiced in China for over 2,000 years. It is based on the concept of balance and harmony within the body and between the body and the external environment. TCM integrates various practices, including herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, Tuina (therapeutic massage) and Qi Gong.
While TCM has ancient roots, it continues to evolve and integrate with modern medical practices. It is recognized and practiced worldwide, often complementing conventional Western medicine to provide a more comprehensive approach to health care.
TCM diagnosis involves observing, hearing, asking, and touching (inspection and palpation). Practitioners look at the tongue, feel the pulse, and inquire about symptoms to determine the patient's condition.
It is my mission to help treat the route courses of disease using a variety of therapies targeted at addressing the needs of each individual. TCM considers the whole person, including physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Whilst TCM is used to treat a broad variety of health concerns relating to the body and mind, regular treatments also offer an opportunity to maintain optimal health in a relaxed and calm environment, thus preventing illness when combined with a balanced lifestyle, good diet, regular exercise and mental well-being. During your initial consultation and throughout our journey together we will closely observe and listen to the needs of your body.
