Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) employs multiple modalities in treatment, the most well known of which is acupuncture. Acupuncture is quickly becoming recognized the world over as an effective treatment method for a wide variety of complaints. There is a growing body of research proving that effectiveness with hospitals and major universities in the US now offering and encouraging its utilization.
Another modality included in the TCM spectrum of care is the use of herbal prescriptions. A patient of TCM might also encounter modalities like cupping, therapeutic massage, electrical stimulation, moxabustion, and herbal lineaments and oils. All these methods are used to treat based on the practitioner’s discretion, which should always be rooted in clear diagnosis. Each treatment session is custom tailored for each patient.

Chiropractic is a philosophy of health, a science of the nervous system and spine, and an art of helping people regain their health naturally. It recognizes that the body is an intelligent self-developing, self-maintaining and self-healing organism and understands that the nervous system controls every part of the body including the immune system.

Chiropractic believes that the body works best when the nervous system is free of damaging interferences, which cause malfunction, symptoms and diseases, and a reduced quality of life. It observes that there are three interferences…physical trauma, emotional stresses and environmental toxins. One of these interferences is called subluxation. Chiropractors correct subluxation, allowing your nervous system to function more normally, releasing your body’s innate potential to regain health naturally and paving the way for you to experience wellness throughout life.
