Scope of Treatment
The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified specific conditions that have been proven particularly effective with TCM and acupuncture:
Pain, Digestive Discomforts and Disease, Infertility and Gynecological problems, Common Cold, Headaches and Dizziness, Cough and Asthma, Allergies, Mental and Emotional Problems, Pediatrics and Geriatrics, Back pain and Sciatica, Parkinson’s and Wind Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis and Atrophy Syndromes, Orthopedics and Traumatology
This is not an exclusive list by any means, but it does offer some indications. TCM can also be used to maintain optimal health in the absence of illness.
What can this practice offer?
Modalities of treatment not only include the Traditional Chinese Medicine methods of acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, tuina massage and diet therapy, they also includes numerous adjunct therapies that compliment the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approach such as Jin Shin Do, Sho Ni Shin, Facial Rejuvination, and Sports Medicine. As a natural health profession, TCM can be used as an alternative or complementary medicine to standard allopathic medical therapies.
