What Conditions do I treat?

In my experience, Chinese medicine treatment, skillfully practiced, can at the very least alleviate the symptoms of almost any condition. In many cases it can reduce symptoms down to zero and in a large number of cases it can help to get to the root cause too.

​

In any situation, Chinese Medicine can bring to light ways that the body is not functioning correctly and then correct these through treatment and/or lifestyle changes. Very often when these underlying imbalances are resolved, their related symptoms go away.

 

For example, a patient may have digestive symptoms like loose stools, bloating or gas. These often are related to cold in the stomach. If I then treat by using techniques to warm the stomach, both symptoms and underlying cause of the problem improve. 

​

However, I do believe there are limits to treatment in Chinese Medicine and I believe strongly in being upfront and telling you when I think you need treatment from convential doctors or other kinds of therapists. I believe that Western and Chinese medicine should work together, not against each other.

​

If you are unsure if you can benefit from treatment with me, you can contact me at alex@daomedicine.com or you can book an initial consultation and I will know much more after conducting a full Chinese Medicine diagnosis.

​

Below are some examples of conditions I treat regularly if you would like more information. However, my practice is not limited to these and I can treat a much wider range of illness and symptoms.
