Herbal Medicine

Ancient Chinese herbal formulas are as effective now as they were when practiced more than 3,000 years ago. Formulas treat a wide variety of symptoms while stimulating the body’s natural healing process. Unlike western medications, the balance and interaction of all the ingredients are considered more important than the effect of individual ingredients. Chinese herbology often incorporates ingredients from all parts of plants, the leaf, stem, flower, root, and also ingredients from animals and minerals. They are sold as tablets, capsules, powders, teas, extracts and fresh or dried plants. Each herbal medicine prescription is a blend of many herbs tailored to the individual patient. Different herbs have different properties and can balance particular parts of the body.

Acupressure

Acupressure is a manual treatments to the body. It is based on meridian concepts, i.e., the smooth flow of Qi through the meridians and collaterals. As with acupressure, the clearing of Qi blockages will allow for the enhanced healing. It does not just simply work on the muscles, bones, and joints, but a person’s mind and spirit. It works with the energy of the body at a deeper level. As the practitioner senses the patient’s body with the hands, the therapist is able to assess the distribution of energy and affect its flow, and helps one achieve optimal health level. Acupressure can relief of aches and pains, decreased stress levels, and increased relaxation leading to better sleep. Most clients report a marked decrease in symptoms, improved emotional balance, and better overall health, with regular treatment.

Traditional Chinese Medicine

TCM includes Chinese Herbal Medicine (CHM), Acupuncture, moxibustion, Tui-Na, Diet therapy, Qigong, Taiji, and health-preserving. It has the same branches as modern western medicine, such as internal medicine, surgery, etc.

Laser acupuncture

Laser acupuncture is using Laser instead of needle to stimulate the acupuncture points. The procedure has some distinct advantages over the traditional needle method. Many patients who are usually afraid of needles, such as children. Use of a laser makes it a typically noninvasive, aseptic procedure, which significantly reduces the pain and recovery time associated with invasive treatments. Generally, laser acupuncture can treat the same range of complaints as needle acupuncture. While laser therapy significantly reduces patient trauma, and is usually a good choice for treating conditions where the risk of cross infection is high, the effectiveness of this treatment is often limited to peripheral points.

Auriculotherapy

Auriculotherapy (also auricular therapy, ear acupuncture, and auriculoacupuncture) is a form of alternative medicine based on the idea that the ear is a micro system, which reflects the entire body, represented on the auricle, the outer portion of the ear. Conditions affecting the physical, mental or emotional health of the patient can be treatable by stimulation of the represented point on surface of the ear exclusively. It is a diagnostic and treatment system based on normalizing the body’s dysfunction through stimulation of points on the ear.

Cupping

Cupping refers to an ancient Chinese practice in which the cupis applied to the skin and the localized suction in the cup is reduced (by using change in heat or by suctioning out air), so that the skin and superficial muscle layer is drawn into and held in the cup. In the gliding cupping, the cup may be moved while the suction of skin is active, causing a regional pulling of the skin and muscle. Cups may produce red / purple color on the cupping area that may remain for 1-5 days. Cupping is applied to certain acupuncture points, as well as to regions of the body that are affected by pain. In some cases, a small amount of blood letting is done first by using a pricking needle (three-edged needle, acupuncture needle or plum blossom needle) and then the cup is applied over the site. It can promote blood circulation, remove stasis, and alleviate swelling and pain.

Gua-Sha

Gua-Sha is a healing technique used in Asia by practitioners of traditional medicine. Gua means to scrap, rub or friction. Sha is the term used to describe congestion of blood at the surface of the body. It involves palpation and cutaneous stimulation where the skin is pressured, in a stroking manner using round-edged instruments. When friction is applied in repeated even strokes, the sha surfaces as small red petechiae. In minutes the petechiae fade into echymotic patches. The color and rate of fading are both diagnostic and prognostic indicators. The purpose of raising sha is to remove stagnation and promoting circulation. These sha often results in slight bruising at the treated area. The bruising, which is not painful, usually resolves in 5-10 days. The benefits of Gua Sha are numerous. It moves “stagnation”, promoting normal circulation to the muscles, tissues, and organs directly beneath the surface treated. The patient experiences immediate changes in stiffness, pain and mobility. Normal metabolic processes are restored by the movement of fluids as nutrients are carried to the tissues and metabolic wastes are carried away.

TDP Lamp

TDP is an acronym for “Teding Diancibo Pu” (特定电磁波谱) which roughly translated means specific electromagnetic spectrum. TDP lamp is different from conventional heat lamps, infrared lamps, and microwave therapeutic devices. A TDP lamp uses infrared light goes through a round metal plate coated with a proprietary mineral clay formation consisting of 33 elements essential to the human body.
The metal plate emits a special band of far-infrared waves and it penetrates into the body 2 to 3.5 inches to help our body’s self-healing. TDP lamps have been used with positive results as part of
