What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?

The goal of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is to balance the body-mind-spirit by increasing blood flow, relieving qi stagnation, and releasing endorphins and neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine. There are many possible modalities to help improve your well-being. Acupuncture stimulates stagnant qi with needles. Moxibustion warms acupuncture points with burning mugwort. Acupressure stimulates acupoints without needles. Gua Sha painlessly scrapes the skin to relieve stagnation and increase blood flow. Cupping uses suction to release tension and increase blood flow. Electrostimulation can be done with or without needles to control pain. Other modalities include: nutrition, meditation, and movement.
