Chinese Medicine / Acupuncture
According to Chinese Medicine disease and pain arises due to the congestion and stagnation of blood and qi (energy/movement) in the body. In order to better understand and treat this dysfunction, it is helpful to see the body as a natural landscape, made up of the 5 elements (earth, wood, fire, metal, water) and acting in accordance with natural laws of nature. How these elements dance together and balance each other will determine our various strengths and weaknesses.
