Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the ancient art of inserting very fine needles into specific points along "meridians" or channels that run throughout our body. Acupuncture can be traced back to the Stone Age in China. The body functions as an integrated whole through 12 channels called "Meridians", that distribute Qi.
"Meridians" or channels are pathways of energy flow. Modern scientific enquiry has established the existence of the meridian system and is traceable and consistent with acupuncture theory.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbs are specifically used to create decoctions or "teas" and are a very powerful part of healing disease or “patterns of disharmony”. Herbal decoctions can also be given in the form of tinctures, granules, concentrated powders, or as an external patch, compress or bath. Chinese herbal medicine uses several hundred substances, mostly of plant origin (roots, seeds, flowers, twigs, and barks).
They are combined into a formula, which can contain anything between 3 and 18 ingredients. It is the "herbal synergy", or how the herbs act together as a unified whole, and how they interact with the individual that is the strength behind Chinese herbs and why they are so successful.
Nutrition
Food As Medicine - Food has been used as a preventative to disease for over 4000 years by physicians of natural medicine. Food is a major determinant of health that is directly under our control. We cannot always control pollution, hereditary factors, noise, environment, and the social and emotional behaviour of others, but we can certainly choose what and what not to eat.
The quality of the food we eat and the influence that processed foods have on our bodies’ has placed us under an incredible strain. In typical western societies the price we pay is virtually half the population suffering from digestive dysfunction, leading towards more serious health issues.
