Chinese Medicine appointments begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand your health history, symptoms, and overall constitution through a holistic lens. This allows for an individualized treatment plan that addresses both root causes and current concerns.
When appropriate, a customized herbal prescription may be recommended and dispensed specifically for you. Herbal formulas are prescribed on a short-term basis to ensure they can be carefully adjusted over time as your body responds. Herbal medicine is an additional cost and is tailored to support each phase of your healing process.
Acupuncture may be added to your session for enhanced support—working synergistically with herbal medicine to regulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and promote balance throughout the body.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic healing system that views the body as an interconnected network of energy, organs, and functions. It aims to restore balance and harmony using therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, and lifestyle guidance to support the body’s natural ability to heal.
Acupuncture is a gentle, evidence-informed therapy that involves placing very fine needles at specific points on the body to improve circulation, regulate the nervous system, and support balance. It’s commonly used to reduce pain, ease stress, improve digestion, and regulate hormones.
