Chinese medicine is a system of diagnosis, healthcare, and disease prevention that has evolved over the last 3,000 years. This unique way of understanding the human body is based on Chinese philosophy and a rich empirical tradition.

The body is viewed as a bioelectric system with defined pathways called channels that carry life energy, referred to as Qi. When the flow of Qi is abundant and harmonious, there is health and well being. Conversely, insufficient or blocked Qi flow results in disease. Every therapeutic technique of Chinese medicine, from acupuncture and herbal therapy to moxabustion, tui na, and cupping, is focused on restoring the free flow of Qi.

Patients from infants to senior citizens can experience the benefits of Chinese medicine, which include increased vitality, immune enhancement, pain relief, and rejuvenation.
