                   Traditional Chinese Medicine is an alternative and complimentary medicine that is thousands of years old.  TCM includes several modalities, such as acupuncture and chinese herbs, that combined together treat the patient in a holistic manner.  It is said that TCM treats the person, not just the disease, and that illnesses may be identical, but the persons suffering from them are different.  While TCM is effective in treating illness, there is a strong emphasis on prevention of disease. 

           There are many conditions that Traditional Chinese Medicine can effectively treat.  The evolution of TCM into a complete medical system is proven by its endurance for millennia and its continued application today.  Some of the conditions we treat are:

                                  If the condition you are concerned about is not listed, please do not hesitate to contact us with your inquiry.  While this list is extensive, it is not exclusive, and is intended to educate regarding the scope of practice..  TCM is effective in treating many imbalances that do not necessarily translate to western diseases.  One of the strengths of TCM is that we are not limited to one treatment for a problem, as each person presents a unique imprint on this planet, one’s manifestations of imbalance and disease is unique as well.  TCM diagnosis allows for each person to be diagnosed and treated within that  framework.
