Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture (TCM) is based on ancient Chinese Taoism and views a person as an energy system in which, the body and mind are unified, each influencing and balancing the other. In TCM, a person's health is influenced by the flow of Chi (energy) in the body, in combination with the universal forces of Yin and Yang. If the flow of Chi is obstructed, excessive, or unbalanced, pain and illness occur.

TCM includes: Chinese Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture, Cupping and Moxibustion, Qigong, TaiChi, and Diet therapy.

Acupuncture is still new to many people in Canada; they try Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine as a "last hope" to serious and complex medical problems and find that it could help them when other treatments could not.
