| Moxibustion
is a method that employs the Artemisia plant, which is shaped
into cones, grains, or sticks and placed on a meridian point
to warm up the area and promote flow of Qi (vital force).
Depending on the techniques used by the practitioner, moxibustion
can also be used to cool an area.
Tui
Na Massage is a method which, like acupuncture, promotes
flow of healthy Qi. However, it does not use needles to achieve
this goal.
Qi
Gong Exercise is a wonderful way for patients to manage
their own health. In our office we teach patients simple medical
Qi Gong to enhance their health. This method is particularly
effective in stress management and enhancement of mental clarity
and focus.
Food
Cures is another term for Traditional Chinese Medicine
dietary therapy. TCM places great emphasis on the diet. Our
food has always been and will be our best medicine. The foods
that we consume can greatly influence our organs. As we know
alcohol can damage the liver, but what about foods that can
aid the body? For example, salty foods like seaweed, celery
or parsley nourish the Kidney energy system. Sour foods like
apple cider vinegar, raspberry, and green kale can benefit
the Liver energy system. We usually recommend to patients
the best Food Cures for them.
Recently in our clinic we have also begun to
offer Neural™ and Psych-K™.
Neurolink™
is based on research by Dr.
Allan Phillips from New Zealand.
It is a structured system utilizing muscle testing (Kinesiology)
to discover from the body's responses whether its physical
parts or functional physiology are operating up to their full
potential. It also uses the connection of neurophysiological
pathways from the central nervous system to the muscles to
correct possible imbalances. The beauty of the system is the
fact that it can efficiently identify a problem and treat
it usually without administering any chemical medication.
It is safe, accurate and has no side effects.
Psych-K™
is a method originated by Robert
M. Williams M.A.
Its basic general philosophy teaches that what we believe
in our subconscious will manifest itself in our conscious
life. For example, if we expect that our health cannot be
optimal by the age of 45 we will develop some manifestation
in our physical body to confirm that belief!
Dr. Heigelmann was trained in Psych-K™
by Dr. Bruce
Lipton, who discovered that there is a protein messenger
link between belief (non-physical thought or energetic existence)
and physical matter.
Psych-K™ also employs muscle testing to
identify beliefs that exist in our subconscious mind. It helps
to rewrite our life, changing negative beliefs into positive,
life-enhancing statements and therefore enhancing and enriching
our being on many levels.
Again, this method is safe and effective when
performed by a trained practitioner.
