Chinese medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the body’s natural healing ability. It is based on the concept of qi (pronounced chee) and blood, which is the life force energy that flows through the body. According to Chinese medicine, illness and disease occur when qi and blood is blocked or unbalanced. Chinese medicine uses various techniques to restore the balance and flow of qi and blood including acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary therapy, and exercise.

These problems can be caused by stress, lack of exercise, poor diet, food intolerances or allergies, medications and some diseases. Heredity also can play a role in some digestive disorders.
