Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a time-honoured healing system that works with the body’s natural energy pathways to restore balance and promote optimal health. According to TCM principles, vital energy—known as Qi—flows through networks called meridians. When this energy becomes blocked or disrupted, pain, dysfunction, and illness can occur. Acupuncture uses very fine, sterile needles placed at specific points along these pathways to rebalance the body, improve circulation, calm the nervous system, and support natural healing. Treatments are gentle, deeply relaxing, and tailored to each person’s unique needs.
