The antiquity, beauty, and efficacy of Chinese medicine have drawn Western scholars for years. Classical Chinese Medicine is a complete medical system that includes acupuncture, chinese herbal medicine, bodywork, lifestyle choices, nutrition, and qi gong.
Chinese Medicine theory acknowledges that human beings are unique bioenergetic systems. Secondly, these systems contain a vital life force called Qi, which flows through all things. In this theory when the balance of qi, (or energy),is disturbed due to either trauma, poor diet, medications, stress, hereditary conditions, environmental factors, or emotions then pain and disease may result. Chinese Medicine focuses on correcting these energetic imbalances and removing blockages, thus stimulating the body to heal itself. Treatment is tailored to the individual's needs, with emphasis placed on identifying and eliminating the underlying cause of the imbalance.
CHINESE HERBOLOGY:
For most of the world, herbs are the primary source of medicine and nutritional supplementation. Classic formulas with demonstrated clinical efficacy are prsonalized to treat a wide variety of conditions. Most formulas consist of two to thirteen different types of herbs. Energetically balanced, these high quality custom formulations enhance well being with less harmful side effects than western pharmaceutical products. Herbs can be used with or without acupuncture and are available in bulk (raw), granules, or tincture form.
