Traditional Chinese medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a proven complex health care system that focuses on the balance of body and mind.
It helps with a wide range of health problems, such as:
- acute and chronic pain,
- skin problems,
- digestive or gynecological problems,
- swelling, weight problems,
- fatigue, exhaustion,
- mental and emotional upset
- and much more.
The main goal is the overall harmonization of the body.
TCM does not focus only on treating symptoms, but also identifies the causes of the problems and subsequently treats them. Prevention is equally important, thanks to which the onset of many diseases can be prevented.
A wide range of methods is used for diagnosis and therapy, such as:
- acupuncture,
- acupressure,
- Tuina massage,
- cupping,
- herbal treatment,
- diet and lifestyle modification,
- recommendation of appropriate exercise.
Techniques I use:
Tuina
Tuina is a Chinese therapeutic massage offering a wide range of options for influencing the health of the body and mind. It includes both manual techniques for affecting joints, muscles, and tendons, as well as subtle techniques for harmonizing and supporting the flow of qi (energy) in the deeper layers of the body and organs.
Acupuncture
A therapeutic technique that uses acupuncture needles to directly affect specific points on the body. It is a complex and sophisticated system that can help achieve better health. Preventive and regular visits are recommended.
Cupping
It is a healing method that is used in classical massages but also in Chinese medicine, as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. It uses the vacuum that is created in the flask when the air is sucked out. By sucking the skin in a painful place, the blood vessels dilate and thus the blood flow is accelerated. It is suitable for relieving pain and, for example, at the beginning of a cold. It affects both muscles and joints and tendons, it also harmonizes and supports the energy flow in the deeper layers of the body and organs.
Guasha
Guasha is a massage technique based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and performed using a jade plate. It has an immediate effect and helps the therapist to diagnose problems in the body. A special Guasha plate is applied to the skin, which then reveals the sowing in different places, in different intensity and shape. Accordingly, it is possible to diagnose the client’s condition and choose a suitable therapy.
Reflexology foot massage
This reflex massage is based on how the individual parts of the body are projected on the feet. Through the foot, I can stimulate and remotely influence various locations on the body and improve their health.
Facial Guasha
A natural technique in facial care that helps reduce wrinkles and skin imperfections. A cream is applied to the face, which is spread with two jade plates. The massage perfuses the tissue and nourishes the skin. The skin is then brightened, smoothed, refreshed and the color of the face is unified. The effect is visible immediately. With the help of facial Gua Sha, we can alleviate not only the signs of skin aging, but also unevenness, pigment spots, veins, sacs, and circles under the eyes.
