We’re thrilled to announce that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Acupuncture are now available at NEXT Clinic—starting next week with the arrival of our newest practitioner, Fallon Drinkall, R.TCMP!
Whether you're curious about natural approaches to wellness, exploring new ways to manage chronic conditions, or seeking holistic support for hormonal health, fertility, or pain relief—this ancient yet powerful modality may be exactly what your body has been craving.
What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a holistic system of health and healing that has been practiced for over 2,000 years. It views the body as an interconnected system of energy, or Qi (pronounced “chee”), and seeks to bring that energy into balance through a variety of techniques—including acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, gua sha, and dietary therapy.
Instead of just treating symptoms, TCM looks at the root of the imbalance and supports your body’s natural ability to heal itself.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is the most well-known branch of TCM and involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body. These points correspond to pathways known as meridians that help regulate the flow of Qi. When Qi is blocked or out of balance, pain and illness can result.
Stimulating acupuncture points can help:
-
Relieve chronic pain (neck, back, shoulders, joints)
-
Regulate hormones and support fertility
-
Improve sleep, mood, and digestion
-
Calm the nervous system and reduce stress
-
Support immune function and reduce inflammation
Acupuncture is gentle, safe, and deeply relaxing, with many patients reporting an immediate sense of calm and well-being after just one session.
