Medical Problems – Longevity Clinic

Many types of medical problems can be managed and resolved using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). For example; musculoskeletal disorders include trapped nerve, back & knee pain, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, postoperative pain, osteoarthritis and post stroke conditions. Chronic sciatic pain is a common referral when established healthcare is unable to help. TCM looks at all medical conditions from a different approach to reveal the true cause of the problem rather than treating the symptom. Remember, not all musculoskeletal disorders are musculoskeletal in origin – when the true cause is identified can a holistic treatment solution be found.

Traditional Chinese medicine also offers solutions to disorders such as infertility, hormonal imbalance, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), chronic fatigue, stress, insomnia, depression and skin conditions.
