General Health
TCM emphasizes the balance of Yin and Yang, Qi (vital energy), and the Five Elements. Treatments like acupuncture, herbs, and diet work to restore this balance, promoting overall well-being.
TCM focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. This approach supports long-term healing and prevention.
Every person’s constitution and condition are unique. TCM tailors treatments, such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary therapy, to the individual’s specific needs.
TCM views the mind and body as interconnected. Techniques like acupuncture and Qi Gong, as well as herbal remedies, can help reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional imbalances.
TCM emphasizes maintaining health through lifestyle adjustments, seasonal eating, and regular treatments like acupuncture, which help prevent illness before it arises.
TCM is beneficial for conditions like chronic pain, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and fatigue. Its holistic approach can provide relief where conventional medicine may fall short.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
As we become older and more stressed out by our daily lives, we often search for quick fixes to rejuvenate our skin and lessen the indications of ageing. However, many fixes are often band-aid treatments that don’t address the underlying causes of our issues.
We understand what you are going through.
By embracing the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine, which dates back over 5000 years, we can help you achieve a natural, sustainable, and healthy-looking body and skin without the need for painful, expensive surgery, injections, or laser treatments. Our approach addresses the underlying causes of your issues and revitalises and energises your body from the inside out.
Needle Free Treatments
Needle-free acupuncture treatments use small adhesive pads connected to an E-Stim device. These pads are placed on specific acupuncture points, delivering gentle pulses to stimulate energy flow and promote healing.
The pulses mimic the effects of traditional acupuncture by stimulating the nervous system, improving circulation, and encouraging the body’s natural healing response—without the need for needles.
This treatment is a great alternative for those who are uncomfortable with needles, have sensitive skin, or prefer a non-invasive approach while still benefiting from acupuncture’s therapeutic effects.
Needle-free acupuncture with E-Stim can be used for pain relief, stress reduction, muscle recovery, improved circulation, and balancing the body’s energy (Qi) for overall wellness.
The E-Stim device allows practitioners to adjust the frequency and intensity of the electrical impulses, ensuring a comfortable and personalized treatment tailored to each patient’s needs.
Cupping
The suction created by the cups expands blood vessels, facilitating the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the skin and underlying tissues for healthy, rejuvenated skin.
Cupping draws toxins and impurities to the surface of the skin where they can be eliminated.
The suction stimulates the lymphatic system, promoting detoxification and reducing tissue congestion.
The suction and gentle pulling sensation can be soothing, promoting relaxation and reducing muscle stiffness.
It may reduce the appearance of cellulite, as the suction and manipulation of the cups can break down fat cells and stimulate lymphatic drainage for smoother looking skin.
Hormone Balanced Weight Loss
Instead of focusing solely on cutting calories or exercise, TCM works to restore the body’s internal harmony, making weight loss a natural side effect of improved health. This approach not only helps shed weight but also ensures the balance is maintained, preventing rebound weight gain.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), hormone imbalance is viewed as a disruption in the body’s internal balance of Qi (energy), Yin and Yang, and the function of key organ systems.
Dr M’lanie combines her extensive experience in body-building competitions with tested TCM practices to bring you the best of both worlds.
Herbal Medicine
Herbal medicine works by restoring balance in the body, supporting organ function, and enhancing the body’s ability to heal itself. Herbs are carefully selected based on their properties to address specific health concerns, such as inflammation, digestion, or hormonal imbalances.
When combined with acupuncture, herbal medicine enhances and prolongs the treatment’s effects. While acupuncture stimulates energy flow (Qi) and balances the nervous system, herbs provide ongoing support between sessions, reinforcing the therapeutic effects.
Herbal medicine can be highly effective on its own, as it provides continuous internal support. It is particularly beneficial for conditions that require long-term care, such as hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, stress management, and immune support.
Herbal formulas are tailored to each individual’s specific needs, rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach. Practitioners adjust formulas as symptoms change, ensuring a dynamic and responsive treatment plan.
Unlike pharmaceuticals, herbal medicine works in harmony with the body rather than suppressing symptoms. It addresses the root cause of health issues while minimizing side effects, making it a gentle yet powerful healing method.
