The Chinese Medicine Sanctuary
Providing acupuncture and herbal medicine in Guidford, Streatham and Sevenoaks by a highly qualified English practitioner trained in both the UK and in China, and registered with both the British Acupuncture Council and the Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine (two of the UK’s main regulatory bodies).
What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese medicine (including acupuncture and herbs) is a complete medical system that has been used for more than 2,000 years. Chinese medicine views health in a completely different way to conventional medicine. The Chinese believe that we have an energy known as Qi (pronounced chee) which in a normal state of health flows around the body in a harmonious fashion. When we are suffering from disease/pain, this flow of Qi is disrupted which causes an imbalance in the body’s functioning thus resulting in physical/mental symptoms.
How does Chinese medicine work?
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine work in a subtle way with your body to restore the harmonious flow of Qi. Traditional Chinese medicine aims to bring back balance by not only treating your symptoms, but also the root cause of your problems/disease so that any improvements made to your health are of a more long-standing nature. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine work together with your body’s natural healing processes by supporting and boosting up the areas which are weak or deficient.
Acupuncture is a very relaxing and calming method of treating the body and can be used to treat most diseases and symptoms so it is always worth getting in contact to find out how The Chinese Medicine Sanctuary may help you.
