Chinese or Oriental Medicine is a 3,000 year old art form
that treats imbalances of the body and mind. It is an
art and science. Where conventional medicine divides,
reduces and categorizes, Oriental Medicine treats patterns
and establishes harmony. Oriental Medicine is a professional
system of health care with specific systems of diagnosis
and treatment. These time proven methods are based on
thousands of years of clinical experience. Oriental Medicine
deals with energetic properties of your body that at their
most fundamental and abstract are called Yin and Yang.
Ideally Yin and Yang are in balance and you are in harmony
and free of pain and disease. When Yin and Yang become
out of balance there is disharmony. You experience disharmony
as pain or disease.
Oriental
Medicine strives to restore balance and harmony by using
modalities like acupuncture, electrical stimulation on
meridians, moxibustion, tai chi & qigong, diet, and
herbal therapy.
