TCM Treatment Options
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a part of an ancient and sophisticated medical system commonly known as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It can be used alone or combined with other treatment methods of TCM.
Medical Qigong
Medical Qigong is at once the most ancient and most specialised form of TCM treatment and undoubtedly one of the most effective forms of medical intervention known to man.
Yangsheng and Dietary Therapy
Dietary Therapy is a specialism within TCM and quite unlike any western, contemporary approximation. It involves careful monitoring of food and drink intake in order to eliminate disease and speed recovery.
“Acupuncture is one of the most popular and effective contemporary healing techniques, practised in almost every country on the globe. Acupuncture is part of a comprehensive medical system that has survived over the millennia. Not only is it safe, in the hands of fully trained practitioners, but its clinical applicability is enormous.”
The Natural Family Doctor. A. Stanway, Century Publishers, London.
“It is safe to say that there is no sick person who cannot be helped by TCM treatment.”
Prof. TJ Shanahan, Irish College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
