Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate and balance the flow of energy, or „qi“ (pronounced „chee“). The practice of acupuncture dates back more than 2,000 years and is based on the belief that a person’s health is determined by the balance and harmonious flow of qi throughout the body..
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a technique used in traditional Chinese medicine in which a small amount of dried mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) is burned near the surface of the skin to stimulate acupuncture points and promote healing. The heat generated by the burning mugwort is believed to stimulate the flow of qi, or vital energy, and improve the circulation of blood and lymphatic fluids. Moxibustion is often used in conjunction with acupuncture or as a standalone treatment, and is commonly used to address conditions related to cold and stagnation in the body, such as chronic pain, digestive disorders, menstrual irregularities, and respiratory conditions.
Cupping
Cupping is a form of acupressure using special glass jars to place on the body and create a vacuum. This vacuum can draw blood and lymph fluid to specific areas of the body in order to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. It is also used to reduce stress and calm nerves. It is proved to be a safe and effective treatment method that works for many people.
Ear Points Acupuncture
Ear points, also known as auricular points, are specific points on the outer ear that are believed to correspond to different parts of the body. Auriculotherapy, also known as ear acupuncture, is a form of alternative medicine that involves stimulating these ear points to treat various physical and emotional conditions. Auriculotherapy is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which posits that the body’s energy, or Qi, flows along meridians or pathways. By stimulating the ear points, it is believed that the flow of Qi can be regulated and balanced, leading to improved health and wellbeing. Many studies have suggested that auriculotherapy may be effective in treating a range of conditions, including pain, addiction, and anxiety.
Chinese Herbal Therapy
Chinese herbal therapy is a form of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that involves using natural substances such as plants, minerals, and animal products to treat a wide range of health conditions. Chinese herbal medicine has been used for thousands of years and is still widely practiced today in China and many other parts of the world.
Chinese herbal therapy uses a combination of herbs tailored to the individual’s specific needs and condition. Herbs are often combined in formulas and taken as teas, powders, pills, or tinctures. The combination of herbs and the way they are prepared can be adjusted to suit the individual’s needs, making it a highly personalized form of medicine.
Chinese herbal therapy can be used to treat a wide range of health conditions, including digestive issues, respiratory problems, skin conditions, hormonal imbalances, and chronic pain. It is also commonly used to support overall health and wellbeing, as well as to prevent illness. One of the benefits of Chinese herbal therapy is that it is generally considered to be safe and well-tolerated when used correctly.
Chiropractic Therapy
Chiropractic therapy, also known as chiropractic medicine, is a healthcare discipline that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders, particularly those related to the spine. Chiropractors believe that the nervous system and spine are intimately related, and that any disruption in their functioning can lead to a range of health problems.
Chiropractic therapy involves the use of hands-on manual techniques, such as spinal manipulation and adjustment, to restore proper alignment and mobility to the spine and other joints in the body.
