Merchantville, NJ Acupuncture Clinic
The Tao Clinic of Acupuncture is ideally located for residents searching for a Merchantville, NJ acupuncture clinic. Our South Jersey office is just 20 minutes away and just off the highway in Marlton. We offer a variety of acupuncture and Chinese medicine treatments for patients throughout South Jersey.
The goal of our healing services is to find the root cause of your pain and stress, and address it through a holistic approach. We treat patients with ailments ranging from overwhelming stress and anxiety, women with health or infertility struggles, people with digestive problems, chronic pain sufferers and more.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine works through regulating your body’s energy flow, also known as Qi. In your body, the energy channels form a network of meridians, with openings that are interacting with your surroundings. If your energy flow becomes blocked or is depleted, the result is heightened stress, illness and bodily dysfunction.
As we diagnose your physical or emotional ailments, we look especially for the blockages in your energy flow. We then work to restore your Qi by removing blockages through acupuncture, and help you overcome pain and stress through herbal remedies, along with dietary and lifestyle advice.
Services of Merchantville, NJ Acupuncture Clinic
ACUPUNCTURE
The treatment of acupuncture involves insertion of very thin, disposal, stainless steel needles into the selected acupuncture points. Through tactically manipulating the needles, skilled acupuncturist is able to touch and regulate body’s vital energy.
ACUPRESSURE
Acupressure is a manual treatment that uses the same diagnosis and acupuncture points as acupuncture uses except using the gentle but firm pressure of the hands.
CHINESE HERBAL MEDICINE
Chinese herbal medicine is one of the major clinical healing modalities in the ancient Chinese medical system. The ingredients of Chinese herbal remedies are not chosen based on their chemical components, but on the energy output of the whole ingredient. For example, a commonly used Chinese herb Huangqi (Astragalus) is somewhat sweet, mildly warming, and has an affinity for the lung, spleen, and kidney meridians.
CUPPING
In a typical cupping session, glass cups are warmed by burning a substance inside the cup to create a vacuum. A practitioner then places the cup upside-down over a specific area of the patient’s body. The vacuum anchors the cup to the skin and pulls it. Drawing up the skin helps to stimulate the flow of blood, balance the flow of energy, break up obstructions, and create a channel for toxins to be drawn out of the body.
MOXIBUSTION
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves the burning of mug wort, a small, spongy herb, to facilitate healing. It has been used in China for thousands of years.
TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION
Transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy, or simply TMS therapy, is a treatment for depressive disorders. It is a safe, non-invasive, and effective treatment option for individuals suffering from Major Depressive Disorder who have not seen satisfactory results from antidepressants.
All of the practitioners at Tao Clinic are licensed doctors or Masters of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. They have been fully trained in China or in the United States, and are certified by the Yang Institute of Integrative Medicine.
