Introduction to TCM home care
What is TCM Home Care?
In TCM, health is thought of holistically. It’s also believed to be deserving of daily dedication to living in attunement to one’s internal and external environment.
TCM home care is made up of elements of TCM that you can practice at home, such as TCM food therapy and lifestyle changes.
Each person is thought of as a unique individual, and each person’s combination of internal and external environments (damp, dry, wet, cold, hot, and so on) may require different lifestyle choices and intake of foods to help maintain balance within. TCM approaches healing with a few modalities and philosophies that help you find that perfect balance within in order to live in optimal health.
What are the TCM modalities?
External modalities that help to regulate internal systems include acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, and tui na massage.
Internal modalities that help to regulate imbalances from within include herbal medicine and TCM food therapy.
Lifestyle recommendations like daily meditation, yoga, exercise, sleep and eating habits, and more help the mind, body, and spirit stay resilient.
How can you Find your Individual home care routine?
The best way to find a suitable, individualized home care routine is to visit your acupuncturist or TCM practitioner.
Why integrate TCM home care?
TCM home care is valuable for those who want to be more deeply involved in their own health journey; our own health involves our individual responsibility, and that requires daily commitment and dedication. It’s also a great way to ensure that you’re being preventative about your health and doing what you can regularly in order to stay healthy.
