Why
Chinese Medicine?
Chinese Medicine is one of the oldest and safest forms of medicine known
to man. Used over thousands of years, it offers a cost-effective choice
when conventional medicines have failed to be successful.
Chinese Medicine treats the whole body not just specific symptoms.
By aiding the body to become
better at healing itself, not
only is the symptom treated
but your general health will improve. Many people find that after treatment,
they feel more energetic enabling a better quality of life.
Do Chinese and Conventional Medicines Complement Each Other?
Yes.There is clear evidence to show that Chinese Medicine is effective
for many illnesses that conventional medicine has not been able to treat.
Some of our patients only showed a significant improvement once they were
treated at our clinic. Conventional medicine like Chinese Medicine has
it's origins in the plant and herb extracts that we use. We ask what prescriptions
you have tried and adjust our treatments accordingly.
Herbal Treatment
Herbal treatments include dried herbs that can be taken as a tea.
We also prescribe remedies in tablet and capsule form. All medicines are
prescribed specifically for you.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a natural and painless therapy involving the insertion
of fine needles into specific points on the body. It is highly effective
in treating smoking, stress, general aches and pains, but can also be
used for a variety of other
symptoms.
The process is completely safe by law we only use disposable needles.
How Do I Receive Treatment?
During your consultation, DR Gao will take your case history and assess
your general health. After making a diagnosis she will recommend a course
of treatment. During your treatment DR Gao monitors your progress and
makes necessary alterations to ensure the best results.
