What is Eastern Medicine?

Eastern medicine is a healing discipline that uses a range of treatments to effectively target and prevent stubborn health conditions, whether they’re mental, physical or a combination of the two. Treatments can include Chinese materia medica, acupuncture and moxibustion. It is a medical tradition that focuses fundamentally on a person's vital energy known in Chinese as Qi 氣.

​

There are Chinese medicine hospitals scattered throughout China where it is considered a part of mainstream medicine. Patients often choose to consult both modern medicine and Chinese medicine to gain a full perspective on their health and then finally choosing their best option for treatment.
