Chinese Medicine holds the view and knowledge that when our energy system is in balance, and qi (energy - pronounced "chee") is abundant and flowing freely, we are able to be in a state of good health. Numerous stressors, physical traumas, psychological/emotional/spiritual shocks or grief - and every day life situations can cause imbalances in our energy system. Even diet and poor lifestyle habits can result in blockages in the flow of qi or deficiencies and excess patterns.

When our energy system is not in balance, or there is deficiency or excess of qi, then the body may become sick. Therefore, we treat the "root cause," the imbalance in the energy system, so that the body may do its own healing work, which it naturally does when our energy is flowing freely and openly and we are open with all around us.
