Emotional Health

In Chinese medicine, there is much reference to 'keeping the body balanced'.  As this is true for physical complaints, so too does it apply to emotional disorders.  Though we have yet to explain the mechanisms with science, thousands of years of clinical experience show that Oriental medicine works on an energetic and spiritual level.  Likewise, in Eastern philosophy, the mind and body are inseparable.  Emotional disorders can give rise to physical symptoms and vice versa.  Acupuncture and herbs are used to harmonize all of this dis-ease in the body.  It can also be a powerful tool in transforming emotions- whether they are patterned behaviors, such as how one deals with confrontation, or retained painful memories.
