Philosophy acupuncture

Every body is different. Every body is an energy system.

Traditional Chinese Medicine sees the body, mind and soul as a unified system – all act in unison and none are autonomous. Each part of the system influences and balances the other, requiring a holistic approach to treatment and healing.

Qi (pronounced chee) is defined as the energy or vital substance that really controls our functions as living beings. Chinese medicine has its foundations based around Qi, in that it flows through the body on channels known as meridians that connect all the cells in the body. According to the theory behind Chinese medicine, illness arises when the cyclical flow of Qi in the meridians becomes unbalanced or blocked.

At Balance Acupuncture Brisbane, we aim to ensure that your Qi continues to flow and remains balanced. Our goal is to help you learn how to understand your body and heal yourself.
