Chinese Traditional Medicine Clinic offered by International Community Health Services at International District Clinic

Uses acupuncture, moxibustion, herbal medicine and acupressure to treat and prevent disease and to promote good health and well being.

A 3,000 year old holistic system of medicine that combines the use of  acupuncture, diet, herbal therapy, meditation, physical exercise and massage to prevent, diagnose and treat disease. It is based on the belief that qi (the body's vital energy) flows along meridians (channels) in the body and keeps a person's spiritual, emotional, mental and physical health in balance. Traditional Chinese medicine aims to restore the body's balance and harmony between the natural opposing forces of yin and yang, which can block qi and cause disease.

Traditional Chinese Medicine

Programs that produce regional anesthesia, eliminate or reduce pain or treat other health problems by passing long needles through the skin to specific points. The free ends of the needles are twirled or in some cases used to conduct a weak electrical current to increase stimulation at the desired point. In some cases moxibustion is used in combination with traditional acupuncture to enhance the treatment. Moxibustion involves the burning of dried herbs (mugwort) at or near specific acupuncture points or whole areas of the body. Benefits come both from the heat of the smoldering leaves and from the nature of the herb itself.

Acupuncture

Programs that utilize herbs in various combinations as an alternative to surgery or medication in the treatment of people who have illnesses or other conditions.
