Treatments
Chinese Herbs and Herbal Remedies
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a holistic system of health care that uses a variety of therapies and treatments to combat and prevent illness and achieve optimal health in patients. One of those avenues of treatment involves traditional Chinese medicine herbs. More than 5,700 medicinal substances of plant, animal and mineral origin are used by practitioners of TCM.
At our Chinese Herbal Medicine center, we believe in treating the whole person, not just their symptoms. Our team of experts creates traditional or custom formulas, prepared in capsule form, teas or extracts, and powders to target the root of the problem, not just its symptoms. Unlike Western pharmaceuticals, Chinese Herbal Medicine aims to heal the body naturally and holistically.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture originated in China many centuries ago and soon spread to Japan, the Korean peninsula, and elsewhere in Asia. Acupuncture is widely used in health care stems in the countries of this region; it is officially recognized by governments and well received by the general public.
​​
Although acupuncture was introduced to Europe as long ago as the early seventeenth century, skepticism about its effectiveness continues to exist in countries where modern Western Medicine is the foundation of health care, especially in those where acupuncture has not yet been widely practiced. People question whether acupuncture has a true therapeutic effect, or whether it works merely through the placebo effect, the power of suggestion, or the enthusiasm with which patients wish for a cure.
​
In Chinese medicine, stress, anxiety, depression or any strong emotion interrupts the smooth flow of energy throughout the body. According to Chinese medical theory, energy flows through our body through a network of roads, almost like a highway system. Stress, anger, or any intense emotion acts like a traffic jam, blocking the free flow of energy in the body. For example, many people who are very stressed out complain of upper back, shoulder and neck pain. This is because stress is causing tension in those areas, blocking the free flow of energy, causing pain, tightness, and often leading to headaches.
​
In a highway system, when there is road construction or an accident, traffic may be also backed up on other secondary roads that feed into or out of the affected area. This is true in the body, too. Stress may affect many other parts of the body, most notably digestion, the ability to sleep, pain conditions, and blood pressure. Stress can also aggravate an already troublesome health condition.
​
Through acupuncture, theses energy blockages can be addressed. Acupuncture points serve as the on and off ramps to the energy highway, and can help energy flow smoothly, and alleviate not only the symptoms of stress and anxiety, but the stress and anxiety itself.One of the most common reasons people seek out Acupuncture therapy is for pain relief. Acupuncture can be effective for almost any type of pain including pain from acute injuries such as ankle sprains or post-operatively. It can also be effective for chronic pain like back pain, neck pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, plantar fasciitis and migraines.
Acupressure
Acupressure is a type of massage therapy in which manual pressure is applied to specific points on the body. It is a practice of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice that is similar to acupuncture, except that it uses fingertip pressure instead of needles.
​​
According to the principles of TCM, invisible pathways of energy called meridians flow within the body. At least 14 meridians are thought to connect the organs with other parts of the body. If qi is blocked at any point on a meridian, it's thought to cause health problems along that pathway.
​
Application of pressure to specific acupressure points to restore healthy energy flow. The points they choose depend on your symptoms.
Given how meridians run, pressure points used may be distant from the site of the symptom. For example, an acupressure point on the foot may be used to relieve a headache.
​
Infrared Laser Acupuncture
​
Infrared therapy is widely used in the fields of medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and in autoimmune diseases, to name a few. The therapy is safe and natural, which enables it to be offered as an alternative treatment for various health conditions like muscle pain, joint stiffness, and arthritis, inflammation, to name a few.
​
Infrared therapy has many roles in the human body. These include detoxification, pain relief, reduction of muscle tension, relaxation, improved circulation, weight loss, skin purification, lowered side effects of diabetes, boosting of the immune system and lowering of blood pressure.
​
Vitamin Injections
​
Vitamins are essential nutrients that help to keep our bodies healthy and fight diseases. Most of us take them from different sources of vitamins, such as vegetables, fruits, dairy products, and other animal products.
​
When our body fails to get the vitamins it needs, we often resort to oral supplements. However, the absorption of oral vitamins is often influenced by several factors that impact their bioavailability and effects on our health. This is when vitamin injections enter the scene.
​
Vitamin injections are a concentrated dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants delivered directly into the bloodstream through needle injections. This allows the body to absorb the ingredients more quickly and effectively, which can have a number of beneficial effects on the skin and hair.
Prolotherapy
​
Our innovative treatments are used by Olympic and Professional athletes such as Tiger Woods, Peyton Manning, Rafael Nadal, and Hines Ward. They have all used Regenerative Medicine such as Prolotherapy, Therapy to heal and recover from career-ending injuries.
​
Regenerative Medicine will assist your body in healing itself naturally by repairing and replacing tissue or loss of joint function due to age, disease, damage, or birth defects.
It does more than mask the pain. It helps you heal.
Gua Sha
​
Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese medical treatment in which massage oil is applied to the skin and is scraped to produce light bruising to release stagnation from injured areas and stimulates blood flow and healing.
Modern research shows Gua Sha produces an anti-inflammatory and immune protective effect that persists for days following a single Gua Sha treatment. It is used to treat pain, stiffness, fever, chill, cough, wheezing, nausea, and vomiting.
Electro-Stimulation
​
E-Stim is a technique in which needles are inserted on specific points along the body and those needles are then attached to a device that generates continuous electric pulses using small clips. These devices are used to adjust the frequency and intensity of the impulse being delivered, depending on the condition being treated.
E-stim uses two needles at a time so that the impulses can pass from one needle to the other. Several pairs of needles can be stimulated simultaneously, usually for no more than 30 minutes at a time. It is effectively used as a pain reliever for muscle spasms/soreness and stiffness; and a treatment for neurological disorders such as paralysis, stroke rehabilitation, and breakage of scar tissue.
​
Cupping
​
Cupping is one of the oldest forms of alternative healing dating back to 3000 B.C. by the Egyptians. In China, cupping is used primarily to treat respiratory conditions such as bronchitis, asthma, and congestion; arthritis; gastrointestinal disorders; certain types of pain; and depression. Fleshy sites on the body, such as the back and stomach, arms, and legs, are the preferred sites for treatment.
​
Massage oil is placed on the site of the treatment and a cotton ball is soaked in alcohol, lit, then placed inside the cup which removes all the oxygen and creates a vacuum. The cup is placed on the patient which is anchored by the vacuum. It draws the skin into the glass to open up the skin’s pores, which helps to stimulate the flow of blood, balances and realigns the flow if qi, breaks up obstructions, and creates an avenue for toxins to be drawn out of the body. The cups will be left in place from 5 to 10 minutes. The applied massage oil will allow me to move the cups up and down over particular acupoints or meridians.
