TCM Modalities in Burlington
At The Healing Path Chiropractic and Wellness Centre, we integrate the ancient wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with modern healthcare practices to provide a holistic approach to your wellness. Our services are designed to restore and maintain the balance of your body’s energy, Qi, ensuring a harmonious mind and body.
Our Therapeutic Techniques
- Acupressure: Similar to acupuncture, acupressure involves the application of pressure to certain points on the body with the fingers. It is used to relieve pain, reduce stress, and encourage overall health by stimulating the body’s self-healing abilities.
- Acupuncture: Yanrong, our TCM practitioner and acupuncturist, uses acupuncture to insert fine needles into specific points on your body. This method is effective for treating a variety of issues including pain, anxiety, insomnia, and digestive disorders. Acupuncture aims to restore energy flow and stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.
- Cupping: Cupping therapy involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This technique is used to increase blood circulation, relieve muscle tension, and promote cell repair. It can also help form new connective tissues and create blood vessels in the tissue.
- Gua Sha: Gua sha involves gently scraping the skin with a smooth-edged instrument to enhance circulation. This practice is often used to address issues like colds, fevers, or chronic pain by moving stagnant energy and improving blood flow.
- Moxibustion: Moxibustion treats and prevents diseases by burning dried mugwort on particular points on the body. This heat therapy helps in moving Qi, enhancing blood circulation, and maintaining general health.
- Chinese Tuina: Chinese Tuina massage focuses on the meridians and energy points with techniques that are more vigorous compared to more common massages. This form of massage is specifically designed to unblock energy channels and address specific pain points related to energy and blood flow.
