Traditional Chinese Medicine

July 3, 2018

Massage is therapy for the mind, the body, and the spirit

Acupuncture is considered one of the newest primary health care professions in Canada. The benefits of acupuncture have become widely recognized and integrated with mainstream healthcare.

Acupuncture is the stimulation of a certain point or points on or near the surface of the body by the insertion of hair-fine needles to prevent or modify the perception of pain or to normalize physiological functions, including pain control, for the treatment of certain diseases or dysfunctions of the body.

The restoration of harmony is integral to Chinese acupuncture Toronto. The harmonious balance is expressed in terms of the two complementary forces -yin and yang; and the five elements -fire, earth, metal, water, and wood. 

Each individual herb has different properties such as taste and temperature and enters different organs in the body. When the herbs are combined, through mutual harmony, the treatment effect is increased and the side effects reduced.  A usual prescription or formula can consist of multiple herbs.

After a diagnosis is made, herbs are selected and combined, or a well-known traditional formula is prescribed. The formula is adjusted to fit the patient's symptoms and diagnosis. The formula brings about the treatment effect by regulating qi (energy), blood and body fluids, which are fundamental substances that form the body.
