About Bluegrass Chinese Medicine

image of herbs Traditional Chinese medicine is a 3000 year-old system of healing that includes acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary therapy, massage, meditation, and exercise. Chinese medicine evaluates each person individualy. When the root imbalance is corrected, symptoms resolve and well-being is restored. The natural, gentle healing methods of traditional Chinese medicine are an alternative for those seeking a way to address diseases or symptoms that do not respond to conventional medicine. It is also a comprehensive system of medicine that can be used to prevent disease and promote wellness.
 
Traditional Chinese medicine is currently used by millions of people worldwide to treat illnesses as diverse as infertility, depression, chronic pain, allergies, headaches and insomnia. Chinese medicine can treat such a wide array of illnesses because it emphasizes the unique manifestation of illness in the individual. All of your signs and symptoms,as well as a subtle reading of your tongue and pulse, show us the underlying pattern of imbalance. Treatments and lifestyle changes are then prescribed to adjust the flow of vital energy and substances in the channels and organs of the body.
