What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been used in China and other parts of the world for over 2500 years with much success in areas of Women’s Health and Infertility.

It is effective in treating gynecological, hormonal endocrine, reproductive, neurological, immunological, gastrointestinal, urological systems and more. Additionally, TCM is not only a complimentary treatment to conventional western medicine, but can also be used by itself to treat dysfunction.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is the most common modality of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture works in many ways, one is the ability of specific points in the body to affect changes in related organ systems, by way of the meridians. Meridians are channels that distribute Qi (vital energy) throughout the body. In TCM when there is an imbalance of Qi in a particular channel, the organ and it’s related functions become imbalanced and unable to perform at its best, creating possible dysfunction.

By using specific points to stimulate the body’s own innate healing response, these organs and channels can recover and return to health.
