East Asian Medicine
East Asian medicine is part of a complete medical system originating in China. Practiced for over 2,000 years, it recognizes our inherent inseparability from nature, as well as the role of the mind-body-spirit connection in health and disease.
A Holistic Approach to Treatment
As a holistic medicine, East Asian medicine takes into account the whole person and their environment, including lifestyle habits, personal history, stress and emotions, genetic and constitutional factors, seasonal changes, work habits, social and environmental factors, and more.
East Asian medicine looks at the big picture when determining what imbalances have developed, allowing for certain disorders to arise. Acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, craniosacral therapy, gentle bodywork, and dietary/lifestyle guidance can help catalyze a positive shift in the direction of increased balance and well-being.
