Why and How Acupuncture and TCM Helps!

Acupuncture has been shown to be effective for the treatment of nausea and vomiting in adults following surgery or taking chemotherapy and post-operative dental pain. Acupuncture may be effective in treating a number of other conditions.

Dr. Nadia has experience working with mental and physical health issues, using Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

TCM is an ancient and traditional way to heal the body and the mind. It draws upon knowledge gained over thousands of years of study and application. TCM encompasses many different techniques.

Acupuncture is a complementary medical practice that entails stimulating certain points on the body, most often with a very thin needle penetrating the skin, to alleviate pain or to help treat various health conditions.

Acupuncture treatments stimulate the body’s own healing abilities by working on multiple levels.

It activates blood flow, stimulates the nervous system, strengthens the immune system, improves organ function, calms the mind, and relaxes the body, all at the same time.
