Joanne Vidich Chinese Medicine is a general practice Chinese medicine clinic, with a special focus on managing women’s health, chronic pain and fatigue, stress-induced health issues and skin problems. Chinese medicine therapies are formulated to restore healthy physiology. Pathology, as understood in a Chinese medicine theoretical framework, may not always correspond to a Western disease name. Through balancing the flow of energy and enriching the levels of essential substances within the body, acupuncture therapies and Chinese herbal formulas treat various aspects of health disorders commonly seen in the Western world. Most of these disorders have their root in chronic stress, dietary irregularity and unchecked lifestyle excesses. The cases commonly seen at our clinic are:
