TCM-Wellness
Ancient methods, screened for your body first.
Acupuncture, cupping and moxibustion aren't for everyone — and that's exactly why we assess before we recommend. One practitioner, one room, in English.
Chat on WhatsAppWe treat TCM as complementary care — never as a replacement for medical assessment.
That means screening first: your skin, your medications, your bleeding history, your goals. Then a written plan that fits you.
TCM, explained without the mystique.
Traditional Chinese Medicine works with concepts like meridians and acupoints, alongside tongue and pulse assessment. We offer it as a complementary option — something that sits alongside, not against, your conventional care.
Acupuncture uses fine, single-use sterile needles at selected points. Cupping applies suction to the skin's surface. Moxibustion uses indirect warming at a distance — never in direct contact with skin.
None of these are suitable for every body. That's why assessment comes first.
What we screen for before any session.
Bleeding & clotting
Any bleeding disorder, anticoagulant use, or easy bruising is reviewed before needles or cupping.
Skin condition
Active lesions, infections, rashes or compromised skin at treatment sites mean we wait or adjust.
Medications
What you're taking, including supplements and herbs, is logged and checked for interactions.
Suction, not scraping. Points selected per session.
Cupping uses sterile glass or silicone cups to apply suction to selected points on the back, shoulders or limbs. It's a surface-level technique — there's no cutting, no bloodletting, and no "wet cupping" in our protocol.
Areas are cleaned first, cups are placed for a short, timed interval, and the skin is checked throughout. Any marking that appears is superficial and temporary.
Not suitable if you have a bleeding disorder, are on blood thinners, have skin infection at the site, or are pregnant — we'll tell you this during screening.
Indirect warming, closely monitored.
Moxibustion warms selected points indirectly — the heat source stays at a controlled distance from the skin, never touching it. Temperature and sensation are checked continuously, and you can stop at any time.
This matters: direct contact burns have no place in a clinical setting. Ours is a low-smoke, indirect technique, with distance and duration tailored to your tolerance.
We avoid it entirely in cases involving certain medications, pregnancy, or reduced sensation. Screening decides — not habit.
What a TCM session looks like.
- ✓ Private consultation room. Pulse, tongue and lifestyle review, one-on-one, in English.
- ✓ Written plan. Which points, which technique, how often, and what to watch for.
- ✓ Sterile, single-use needles. Opened in front of you. Cups sanitized between patients.
- ✓ You can stop anytime. Discomfort is not part of the deal — say the word.
- ✓ Notes shared with your doctor. With your consent, your home physician gets a summary.
Sessions are arranged around your schedule. Travel and meals are easy to add on — just ask.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is acupuncture safe for people on blood thinners?
Not always. If you take anticoagulants or have a bleeding disorder, we review this during screening and may adjust the technique, avoid certain points, or recommend against needling entirely. Safety first.
Can TCM be combined with my current medications?
We log every medication and supplement you take and check for interactions before any session. TCM is complementary — we never ask you to stop prescribed medication.
How many sessions are typically recommended?
It varies by your condition and goals. After assessment we give you a written plan with a recommended frequency. You can stop or pause at any time — no long-term commitment required.
