Your journey begins with a detailed assessment by a TCM physician. This includes examining your tongue, pulse, skin tone, muscle tone, and overall body condition. Based on the diagnosis, the physician will recommend a customized treatment plan. This plan may include therapies like bone setting, tuina massage, acupuncture, cupping, guasha, moxibustion, and herbal remedies, all aimed at restoring the body’s natural energy flow and healing capacity.
