Chinese medicine is a complete healthcare tradition that supports the body’s natural capacity for balance and recovery. It takes a personalised approach, viewing each person as a unique pattern of strengths and imbalances. Mitochondrial research similarly highlights the importance of balance in maintaining health from a modern scientific perspective — offering a bridge between traditional and contemporary understanding of wellbeing.
Different methods may be used depending on the concern. Pain and mobility issues often respond well to acupuncture, manual therapy, and movement-based exercise, while internal conditions such as digestive or hormonal imbalance may benefit more from herbal medicine, diet, and lifestyle support. In practice these approaches often overlap, with acupuncture easing stress-related digestion or herbs supporting recovery from pain and inflammation.
