Book with Angelica

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.
