Emotional Health
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, emotional issues are linked to your physical health, and indicate that there is an imbalance and disharmony in the organs of your body. For example, anger and irritability has an effect on the liver and fear is linked to the kidneys. If an emotion is felt excessively over time it may have a physical effect on that organ. There are many different causes for being emotionally out of balance such as stress, sleep deprivation, being bullied or abused physically or emotionally by another, hormonal fluctuations just to name a few.
At Qi for Life Acupuncture, we aim to restore harmony and balance to you physically and emotionally. We will diagnose the emotional imbalance and the organ system that is affected and formulate a treatment plan using a set of Acupuncture points suited to you individually. We may also complement the treatment with Chinese Herbal Medicine, Nutritional Supplements and Bush Flower Essences.
