Chinese Medicine in Victoria, BC

Synergy Health Centre is one of the leading providers of Traditional Chinese Medicine Victoria, BC residents can depend on. Traditional Chinese Medicine or TCM is a complete system of medicine with its own forms of diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and therapies. Practiced for over 5,000 years, Chinese medicine has become one of the most versatile and accepted forms of non-Western medicine in the world.

Chinese Medicine: Diagnosis, Treatment & Sustained Wellness

Based on centuries of knowledge and research, Traditional Chinese Medicine views the body as an energetic system in dynamic balance. When a personal is ill or has an injury, that energetic system is not balanced and it is the goal of a practitioner to restore the equilibrium.

Benefits of Chinese Medicine

Lowers Inflammation and Protects Against Cancer
TCM practices, like the use of medicinal mushrooms, help lower oxidative stress and inflammation. This also protects cells, tissues and organs from diseases in the long run.
Reduces Chronic Pain and Headaches
Acupuncture and acupressure are the most popular pain treatment methods. For instance, acupuncture when combined with a healthy diet can treat chronic headaches.
Balances Hormones and Improves Fertility
Certain Chinese herbal medicines contain antioxidants, which improve the function of both ndocrine and central nervous systems. This helps balance hormones like cortisol, testosterone and estrogen.
Improves Liver Health
TCM treats liver damage and illness like obesity and fatigue. A healthy diet and herbal treatment can help the body restore proper pH and key minerals.
Protects Cognitive Health
Heightened inflammation, vitamin deficiencies and environmental toxins may lead to dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. An alkaline nutrition may help control the body’s immune response and regulate brain hormones.

Traditional Chinese Medicine at Synergy Health

TCM practitioners at Synergy address imbalances using food therapy (diet adjustment), acupuncture, herbal remedies, exercise, and meditation alongside modern Western therapies. By examining your individual needs, a Chinese medicine trained practitioner can help you understand why your body may have certain food sensitivities or why it may function better when certain food and lifestyle practices are followed.

At the heart of TCM is the belief that it is the root cause of illnesses, not the symptoms, which must be treated; TCM views every aspect of a person’s body, mind, spirit, and emotions as a whole rather than as loosely connected pieces. Synergy employs several highly-trained, certified, and talented TCM practitioners who are able to provide for your individual needs.
