Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at Chivitr
Traditional Chinese Medicine, otherwise known as TCM, is an ancient healing system with a history spanning over a thousand years. Despite its long-standing tradition, TCM continues to evolve while maintaining its core principles and diagnostic methods. TCM practitioners assess a patient's energy flow, diagnose symptoms, and apply treatments to balance your Qi and Yin and Yang.
