Traditional and Herbal

what is Traditional Asian Medicine?

Traditional Asian Medicine is a comprehensive natural health care system that has been used to diagnose, treat, and prevent illness for thousand of years in Asian countries.
It is based on a concept of vital energy or Qi (pronounced 'Chee') that flows throughout the body.
It regulates a person's spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical balance and is influenced by the opposing forces of yin and yang.
Pain and ill-health result when the flow of Qi is disrupted or blocked by many things, including disease, pathogens, trauma/injuries and meditation, as well as lifestyle factors such as overwork, lack of rest, poor diet, emotions, and stress.

Holistic approach and individualization are the two unique characteristics of Traditional Asian Medicine.
Asian Medicine Theory involves looking at the physical, emotional, spiritual health of the person, rather than merely addressing the physical symptoms.
Asian medicine recognizes that people are individuals with different constitutions and relationship to the environment, and treatments are tailored for each person's special requirements.

Asian Herbal Medicine includes plants, minerals, and animal products, which have been in use for over 5,000 years.
Each herb has a different taste, as well as a different temperature.
Herbs can nourish and tone the body; disperse and move Qi and blood; and purge and clear heat.
Depending on the condition and syndrome, Ki Acupuncture will help you choose different properties of herbs to create a formula that addresses your particular needs.
