Contribution of complementary medicine

     A number of therapies are able to stimulate the body's self-healing mechanisms. They also encourage the patient to actively participate in the process. The latter thus becomes an actor in their health and well-being.

     Complementary medicine brings together a broad set of healthcare practices. It refers to the principle of treating the patient as a whole (body and mind) and not just focusing on treating an organ, a symptom or a specific function.

Care & Treatments

Microkinesitherapy

Microkinesitherapy is a treatment based on manual palpation to find areas of resistance in the body which will correspond to attacks or trauma to the body. She considers that the body has a memory and that a traumatic event, whether in the case of traumatic, emotional, toxic, viral, microbial or environmental aggression, will cause the degradation of certain tissues. Manual stimulation of these tissue areas will restart self-correction mechanisms, which will allow the body to heal itself. To do this, the therapist performs micro palpation on very specific points. In addition, microkinesitherapy is based on the postulate that there are muscular chains in the body, which function as a network, and that they can cause cascade reactions. When these chains overcompensate, they then cause blockages which will create pathologies. For microkinesitherapy, it is therefore always necessary to consider that the painful area may be different from the area of origin of the trauma and if the aggression exceeds the body's capacity to defend itself, it will deteriorate and cause damage. “remote” pathologies.

Reflexology

Plantar reflexology is a gentle massage performed with the fingers on the feet, by pressure on the reflex zones of the arch of the foot. Each reflex zone corresponds to a part of the body, an organ. Considered as an alternative medicine, plantar reflexology therefore makes it possible to locate body tensions and other dysfunctions and then to have a cation on these areas.

A little history?

The oldest representation of a reflexology session is an ancient Egyptian papyrus where we see men massaging their feet. Indian medical treatises and representations of the Buddha's feet take up the central role of the arch of the foot in the treatment of organic imbalances and the means to treat them.

Traditional Chinese medicine considers that the body is crisscrossed by 12 meridians connecting the main organs where the energy flows that ensure health and balance circulate. We can intervene on the circulation of this vital energy by intervening at specific points called reflex points.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a major discipline of traditional Chinese medicine that dates back more than two thousand years.

For the ancient Chinese, there is a set of channels in the physical body that connect the organs together, like an electronic card. These channels are referred to as acupuncture meridians.

An energy called Qi, in Chinese, circulates in these meridians and nourishes the entire body. If energy is blocked and no longer circulates, the organs and cells are no longer supplied as needed.

Several factors can cause imbalances or blockages in Qi, thus triggering symptoms or even pathologies. These factors can be of various origins such as accumulated emotions, inappropriate diet, overwork or even weather conditions.

The goal of acupuncture is to fluidify and rebalance the circulation of energy in order to nourish cells and organs.

Recent studies on acupuncture show that it has the effect of releasing endorphin, corticosteroids, serotonin and other neurotransmitters from the central nervous system.

Benefits & indications

  • Digestive system: diarrhea, constipation, bloating

  • Nervous system: stress, insomnia, anxiety, migraine, overwork, fatigue

  • Respiratory and lymphatic system: colds, sinusitis, asthma, hay fever

  • Gynecological system: amenorrhea (absence of periods), dysmenorrhea (period pain), irregular cycle, premenstrual syndrome, infertility, pregnancy and postpartum

  • Muscular system: low back pain, back pain, tendinitis, torticollis

  • Cardiovascular system: hypertension

  • Urinary system: cystitis, incontinence

  • Skin problems: psoriasis, eczema, acne

  • Weightloss

Cupping or Vacuum Therapy

Cupping or vacuum therapy is an alternative therapy that uses the suction created by placing cups on the body to treat several medical conditions such as headaches, arthritis, post-injury trauma, rheumatism, fibromyalgia , fatigue and musculoskeletal problems.

Your skin may also feel “tight” or “tingly” or appear a little swollen immediately after treatment, but this is temporary. Vacuum therapy may also cause temporary redness in the affected area, but it does not usually cause bruising.

Using cupping while applying the principles of TCM allows you to:

  • Activate blood circulation and that of Qì

  • Reduce/remove dampness (swelling/swelling)

  • Attract towards the surface and eliminate external pathogenic factors such as Wind, Heat (clear the respiratory tract in cases of colds, flu, bronchitis, reduce muscle or joint pain, stiffness, etc.)

  • Warm, relax and normalize tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia) which increases joint mobility .

From a Western perspective, the benefits of cupping treatments are:

  • Increase local blood circulation which reduces inflammation

  • Stretch and release soft tissues : muscles, ligaments, tendons

  • Reduce/eliminate adhesions (phenomenon which prevents sliding between 2 surfaces)

  • Stretch and relax the fascia at the superficial and deep level

  • Stimulate the nervous system causing an increase in endorphin secretion which provides a feeling of well-being and reduction of pain.
