Acupuncture is an ancient medical healing art which has been used for over 2,500 years in china. It is based on belief that health is determined by a balanced flow of Qi,the vital life energy present in all living organisms. Thisenergy is said to circulate throughout the body along spe-cific pathways(meridians).Health is maintained, but oncethe energy pathways are blocked, pain and illness occur as the result of a disrupted free flow of Qi.Through acupuncture, body, mind, spirit balance can be res-tored with the insertion of hair thin sterile disposable needlesat specific points on energy meridians on the body throughwhich Qi flows, accessing Qi to stimulate the person’s ownself-healing ability. |

Acupressure (a blend of “acupuncture” and “pressure”) is a complementary medicine technique derived from acupuncture. In acupressure physical pressure is applied to acupuncture points by the hand, elbow, or with various devices.
Traditional Chinese medicine’s (TCM) acupuncture theory predates use of the scientific method, and has received various criticisms based on scientific thinking. The anatomical or histological basis of acupuncture points or meridians, if they actually exist, is unknown. Acupuncturists tend to perceive TCM concepts in functional rather than structural terms, i.e. as being useful in guiding evaluation and care of patients. Neuroimaging research suggests that certain acupuncture points have distinct effects that are not otherwise predictable anatomically.
 Tui na is a hands-on body treatment that uses Chinese taoist and martial art principles to bring the body to balance. The principles being balanced are the eight principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (qv because TCM was codified by the PRC out of many ancient traditions.) The practitioner may brush, knead, roll/press and rub the areas between each of the joints (known as the eight gates) to open the body’s defensive (wei) chi and get the energy moving in both the meridians and the muscles. The practitioner can then use range of motion, traction, massage, with the stimulation of acupressure points and to treat both acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, as well as many non-musculoskeletal conditions. Tui na is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is taught in TCM schools as part of formal training in Oriental medicine. |

Moxibustion is another ancient therapy in Traditional Chinese Medicine that isparticularly effective in the treatment of arthritis, asthma, and fatigue.

It provides gentle heat and increases the toning effective of the treatment. It is highly effective to build up a patient’s energy reserves and improve sexual function.
