One of the oldest medical treatments in the world, Traditional Chinese Medicine aims to create harmony by balancing the equal and opposite forces (yin and yang) within the body. Excess yang may be experienced as acute pain, inflammation, spasms, headaches and high blood pressure. A yin dominance may be felt as dull aches or pains, chilliness, fluid retention, discharge and fatigue.

Traditional Chinese Medicine can help with chronic diseases, immune-deficient conditions and disorders which western medicine can fail to address adequately. It involves three methods - acupuncture, shiatsu (also known as acupressure) and Chinese Herbal Medicine, which focuses on strengthening the patient's immune system by correcting the yin/yang balance through prescribing natural herbal remedies.
