This
ancient system of healing emphasizes the creation, recreation, and/or
homeodynamic maintenance of the vital energy within an individual,
known as chi (qi) or ki.
It is based on the concept that imbalances of this energy, due to
a variety of causes, can lead to illness and disease; These dis-ease
states can come from within or from sources outside of us. Current
research shows what Oriental Medicine has known for centuries--that
within us exists a bioelectromagnetic energy that flows in coherent
patterns throughout our entire system. Diagnosis involves, among
other things, the “reading” of this energy by palpation
of radial pulses. Traditional Oriental medicine is an encompassing
term which involves the use of methods and techniques including
acupuncture, herbal medicine, Oriental massage and various movement
therapies, such as tai chi and qi gong. Acupuncture is the most
well known of these, and treatment consists of the stimulation of
specific points in the body on specific pathways, primarily through
use of a needle, although practitioners also utilize heat, pressure,
friction, suction, or impulses of electromagnetic energy to stimulate
the points.
“The beauty of Oriental Medicine is that there is no separation
of body, mind, and spirit. Each factor interacts with the others
and dis-ease in one area will affect all. In my work, I treat people
of all ages whose energetic imbalances manifest in any number of
ways. By harmonizing these imbalances, symptoms can be resolved,
and health and well-being are optimized."
