How does Chinese Medicine do this?
Health and well-being require all of the body’s physiological systems to work together harmoniously. When these systems are operating in an optimum state and working in harmony with each other, the body, mind and spirit are at maximum potential.
Chinese Medicine works to balance, tune, and harmonize the various individual parts, as well as the whole system, so that the body-mind can function at an optimal level. Chinese Medicine stimulates the natural and inherent healing qualities within, our body’s own innate healing abilities, to manifest health and well-being, and eliminate disease and disharmony.
Pediatric Wellness Care
Recognizing the special needs of children’s developing physiology, Traditional Chinese Medicine views the diagnosis and treatment of children as unique from that of adults.---
We treat common childhood illnesses such as stomachache, colds, cough, flu and earache, as well as chronic conditions like asthma, allergies, learning and behavior disorders. --- Our treatments include Herbal Medicine and specialized massage techniques, as well as lifestyle counseling and personalized treatments to be done at home.
Pediatric Herbal Medicine
Herbal treatment in Chinese Medicine is a complex system of medical herbalism. Drawing from a pharmacopeia that contains hundreds of natural substances, customized formulations are created to treat a wide variety of diseases.
These formulations vary greatly in their uses and applications depending on the presenting symptoms of the child being treated. The herbal formulas are taken as teas or as small pills by children who are able to swallow easily. For the very young, and those unable to ingest tea or to swallow pills, the herbal treatments are applied externally to the body, their healing qualities being absorbed through the skin.
Pediatric Massage
Chinese Medical Pediatric Massage is convenient, safe and effective, with infants and young children responding particularly well. The treatment consists of gentle manipulation which is applied to specific reflex areas of the body. Chinese Medical Pediatric Massage helps improve appetite, develop immunity, build health, and is especially effective in treating digestive and respiratory disorders.
