In Traditional Chinese (TCM), health is dependent on the body’s motivating energy, known as Qi (pronounced “chee”). The flow of Qi can be regulated throughout the body using various techniques, such as acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, and using Chinese patent herbs.
Normally, Qi should flow in a smooth and balanced way through a series of organ meridians or channels. Illness results when there is a blockage in this energy flow or if there is an inadequate supply of Qi. A number of factors can disturb the flow of Qi, some of which includes Dysfunctional emotional states (anxiety, stress, anger, fear or grief), Poor Nutrition, Hereditary Factors, Infections, Trauma
