Cupping is a Chinese Medicine therapy that has been used for centuries in China. It has also been used in many other parts of the world, such as South Africa, Europe, and Russia.
Cupping is applied to certain acupuncture points as well as to parts of the body that are not functioning at their best. Cupping removes stagnation and toxins in the body and opens the meridians. It is often used after acupuncture.
Herbal Therapy is the Chinese form of internal medicine. Thousands of herbs have been used to restore balance by increasing or decreasing energy. Chinese developed a complex system of herbal medicine.
Different herbs are combined into a herbal formula. Each formula produces a specific synergistic effect that works powerfully through the meridians to enhance body functions. Components of formula are frequently adjusted according to patient's constitution symptoms and imbalance.
Nutrition plays a significant role in your life, even before your birth, and it will continue to affect you in major ways, depending on how you choose your foods. Good nutrition can bring good health benefits later. A healthy diet can prevent and lessen diseases, conditions and health problems.
