TCM Consultation
If you want to visit a TCM clinic in Hong Kong but not sure as to how the consultation will go or what to expect in your visit, here are some things to know about your Chinese medicine consultation with us.
About Traditional Chinese Medicine
Also called as Oriental Medicine, TCM is a medical system that has been used by registered practitioners for thousands of years now to prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases. It is based on the understanding that the body's vital energy called qi flows along channels called meridians in the body and keeps our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, emotional, mental health in balance.
TCM practices are aimed at restoring the body’s balance and harmony between the natural opposing forces of yin and yang, which can block qi and cause disease. As of its coverage, TCM includes herbal therapy, diet, acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, meditation, physical exercise, and massage.
What to Expect
Similar to consultations with Western medicine, you will be in a private space with our registered TCM practitioner and will be asked to share your health concerns and symptoms so they can better understand your condition. Your visit in our TCM Hong Kong clinic will begin with an in-depth assessment of your condition and an initial treatment.
What makes TCM consultation different from the usual Western medicine consultation is the way the TCM practitioner evaluates your health condition. TCM doctors might inquire about your appetite, sleep habits aside from the symptoms you are experiencing. They will also use traditional Chinese medicine methods like tongue diagnosis and pulse diagnosis to know more about your condition. Why so? Because TCM believes that the tongue serves as a map of your internal organs.This way, it is helpful in diagnosing the imbalances in your body.
This consultation process allows the TCM practitioner to know not just the symptoms that you are experiencing. This also helps them to come up with a personalised treatment plan. Depending on your needs, cupping, acupuncture, herbal treatment, moxibustion, or any of the other below treatments will be recommended to treat, heal and restore natural harmony for your constitution.

Cupping
Cupping therapy is an ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice that involves suctioning or vacuuming sections of the body. The cups are heated by swabbing rubbing alcohol on the bottom and then lighting the cup. It can also be done by placing an inverted cup over a flame to aid in suctioning.

Chanel Adams
“I did 3 acupuncture sessions here with Dr. Clara Chan and now the pain is like 95% better.”
I have carpal tunnel in both arms. My hands were so bad that I couldn't hold a pen to sign my name. I would recommend her for any pain-related problems. She deserves a medal.

“Dr. Clara helped me to improve my menstrual cycle in the first 3 months with acupuncture, moxibustion and Chinese herbs and I felt a big improvement in my menstrual pain.”
After 3 months of treatment, I was not able to visit her for 6 weeks but she prescribed me Chinese herbs to take to maintain my improved menstrual condition. I started visiting her again and after a month, I found out I was pregnant!

“I went to Michelle for GuaSha and acupuncture treatment. After the treatment…I felt like my spine was relaxed, no more pains and tensions, and I slept very well during that week.”
I was suffering from cervical spondylosis for quite a long time. I went to Michelle for GuaSha and acupuncture treatment. Unlike my previous experience, this time was not so painful.
Avey Cortes
“Michelle approaches with curiosity, warmth and made me feel comfortable immediately”
During the cupping and acupuncture session she was very detailed and again made me feel comfortable with her thorough guidance. She also recommended some Chinese herbs to help with my sleep which is also a contributing factor to my injuries.
