Tibetan Healing
Tibetan Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture

Traditional Tibetan Medicine བོད་ཀྱི་གསོ་བ་རིག་པ།  is a holistic approach to health care focusing on the mind/body relationship and the patient's relationship to the environment using techniques based on the insight, skills and compassion of the Tibetan medical practitioner. Tibetan medicine is one of the world's oldest known medical traditions: It has been developed and refined through many centuries, incorporating major components from, and in turn influencing, other major medical traditions such as those of India and China. With time, observation, and compiling of knowledge into extensive medical texts, Tibetans have developed a comprehensive health system which is intrinsically linked to, and sourced from, the natural world around them.

Tibetan Herbal Medicine is effective in the management of neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis or paralysis, cardiovascular issues, chronic conditions such as diabetes, arthritis/rheumatism, and allergies. For those who find themselves unable to find westernized treatments to help with chronic fatigue syndrome and gastrointestinal issues, Tibetan medicine can --with proper adherence to herbal treatments and recommended diet and lifestyle modifications-- generally offer an improvement in quality of life.
