Cold Flu Treatment, Digestion Problems and Digestive Disorders

Our specialty in Chinese Medicine allows us to
treat a wide range of common conditions.

• Because both cold and flu are viral infections, conventional medicine has no cure for them. Bed rest and increased fluid intake are generally suggested to make the patient more comfortable.
• Using herbal formulas to prevent and treat colds and flu is one of the best-developed and most successful aspects of traditional Chinese medicine.
• Specific treatment practices and formulas have been handed down unbroken from the earliest schools to the modern universities of China.
• In Australia, more and more people are becoming aware of the existence and efficacy of the ancient cold and flu formulas.

• Normally, digestive qi (energy) flows downward. Common problems such as Heartburn, gastric reflux and acid reflux diseases are symptoms of an abnormal flow of digestive qi.
• We call this condition Rebellious Stomach Qi. It means that the digestive energy is backing upward instead of flowing downward.
• Modern medicine treats these conditions by suppressing or neutralizing stomach acids.
• Though this can often relieve symptoms, it does not address underlying causes such as a Weak digestive Qi (insufficient digestive enzymes and acids or mis-timed secretion of digestive fluids).
• There are many highly effective solutions to digestive issues using proper diagnosis and treatment with Chinese herbs and acupuncture
