Integrative Medicine Treatments
In my practice, I integrate conventional medicine with natural and ancient therapies, such as Chinese medicine and herbal medicine, to offer personalized treatments that address the root cause of the imbalance. A comprehensive and humane approach to improving your health and well-being.
Acupuncture and complementary techniques of Chinese medicine
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient technique of Traditional Chinese Medicine that involves stimulating specific points on the body with fine needles. Its goal is to restore the balance of vital energy (Qi) flow, thereby promoting health and well-being.
According to this tradition, Qi manifests itself in two fundamental aspects:
* Yang, which represents active, warm, and ascending energy.
* Yin, which expresses passive, cold and descending energy.
Acupuncture seeks to mobilize, balance, and strengthen these energies, while helping to eliminate negative influences (called "Evil Energies") that can disrupt the body's health.
Suction cups
Cupping therapy uses cups applied to the skin to generate negative pressure (suction), which stimulates the circulation of Qi and Blood (Xue) in the energy meridians. This technique is useful for releasing blockages, relieving muscle tension, and detoxifying tissues, thus restoring the body's natural energy flow.
Moxibustion (Moxatherapy)
Moxibustion involves applying heat to specific points on the body through the combustion of the Artemisia vulgaris plant. This therapeutic heat stimulates the circulation of Qi and Blood, revitalizes the internal organs (Zang/Fu), and is especially effective for treating syndromes caused by cold or Yang energy deficiency.
Auriculotherapy (Ear Acupuncture)
Auriculotherapy is a technique that stimulates reflex points located on the auricle to regulate the function of internal organs. It is very effective as a complementary therapy for treating pain, emotional disorders, addictions, digestive problems, and much more.
