East Asian Medicine
-
- East Asian Medicine is one of the oldest medical practices on record – over 5,000 years old. The Ancient Chinese developed this unique medical system through years of diligent study of the body, mind, emotions, spirit, and the natural world around them. This methodology is based on the idea that pathways of energy, or ‘Qi’, flow in systemized patterns throughout the body. These pathways or ‘meridians’ circulate energy, nourish the tissues and support proper bodily function. Obstructions in the movement of this energy can result in a variety of potential imbalances, and if untreated, can lead to disease.
East Asian Medicine is a holistic system that treats the root cause of an imbalance or disease. Each person consists of their own unique blend of constitution, health history, family influences, environment, diet, emotions, thought patterns, etc. As such, assessments and treatments are tailored to each unique individual’s presentation.
