TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE
Traditional Chinese Medicine seeks to balance the vital energy existing in our body, because every disease is nothing more than a state of disharmony.
The diagnostic methods and techniques of Traditional Chinese Medicine focus on the patient as a whole, physically, mentally and emotionally, seeing each person as unique when drawing up a treatment plan, always looking for answers to improve their well-being.
It works with the following Therapeutic vision:
-
Self-regulation of the body: it looks for the causes of the imbalance, not just treating the symptoms, which guarantees a sustained and lasting recovery.
-
Holistic view: treats the body, mind, emotions and spirit as an integrated system, and analyzes each patient as a unique being connected with nature.
-
Prevention: in a health and wellness approach, it promotes self-analysis of lifestyle habits and anticipation of possible disease-causing imbalances.
