Chinese medicine is a comprehensive and highly effective medical system, which has undergone thousands of years of constant development and testing. Chinese medicine views the body as a constantly changing functional dynamic, with a state of health being representative of balanced function of the body/mind as a whole.

Conversely, disease is seen as a disruption of this dynamic, with treatment being aimed at restoring balanced function. Treatment comes in a number of forms including acupuncture, herbal medicine and tui na massage, which can be used singularly or in combination.
