Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

Traditional Chinese Medicine has been around for at least a few thousand years. So why is it still around today and continuing to garner attention? The answer is in the results. TCM examines the body as a  whole, and determines where there is an imbalance. When there is an imbalance in the body, it can lead to a condition or a form of "dis-ease" which often manifests as pain, weakness, and/ or discomfort. These conditions will usually affect the body on a physical, mental and even emotional level. So what is involved exactly? TCM encompasses the practice of acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping and moxibustion. Each of these modalities, especially in combination with one another, work to restore balance in the body.
