Acupuncture

Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Acupuncture is predominately based on the TCM understanding of Qi. Qi can be understood as the communication between Cells, Organ Systems, Emotions and Environment. When disharmony or illness occurs, TCM Acupuncture views it as a blockage of communication (Qi Stagnation) or lack of communication (Qi Deficiency). TCM Acupuncture is aimed at moving or strengthening Qi, aiding in the free flow between the mind, body and environment.

Cupping

According to TCM, cupping is done to dispel stagnation (blood stagnation and lymphatic system) and is traditionally used to treatment lungs conditions or for congestion from a common cold.
