About Chinese Medicine

  • There are 2 basic concepts in Chinese medicine:
                   1.) All things in the universe (living and inanimate objects) are connected to one another.
                  
                   2.) All living things are inhabited and animated by an invisible force called "qi" (pronounced "Chee").

  • In China, most of the country still rely on Chinese medicine.
  • Chinese only use their senses to diagnose what they hear, see, feel and smell.
  • Experienced Chinese doctors can distinguish up to 32 different pulse patterns.
  • Acupressure uses your fingers to stimulate specific parts of your body.
  • A good acupuncturist gets results in 6-12 sessions depending on the severity of the problem.
