Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is the world’s oldest continuously recorded medical system with detailed textbooks dated back 2,500 years. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are its key components. Dietary, massage, meditation, Chi Gong and Tai Chi are also closely associated with TCM.

The way of Chinese medicine understanding the human body is unique. It is a truly holistic system that sees the body as an intact whole in the concept of Qi, Blood, Yin and Yang, instead of the anatomical parts. It sees the body, mind and spirit as an integrated whole; the enviroment (climate, lifestyle) is closely connected with our health too. Its diagnosis system is called "pattern recognition". A Chinese medicine assessment can detect subtle changes in the body's homostatic balance before it reaches the disease stage and before modern medical test can detect any abnormalities.

It is not only commonly used in the treatment of chronic, functional disorders but serious conditions including cancer, autoimmune disorders and most health conditions.
