Our Approach to Healthcare
At the Centre of Chinese Acupuncture, we believe in addressing health from a holistic perspective, focusing on prevention and treating the root causes of illness rather than just symptoms.
Preventative Medicine
Prevention through early intervention is one of the fundamental principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. By addressing health imbalances before they develop into diseases, we can help maintain optimal wellness and prevent future health complications.
This preventative approach is achieved through a combination of Chinese herbal medicines, acupuncture, dietary therapy, and tailored exercise recommendations.
Sub-Optimal Health Management
Sub-optimal health status represents a physical state between complete health and disease. It is characterised by ambiguous health complaints, lack of vitality, unexplained medical syndromes, chronic fatigue, and immune dysfunction. This condition is regarded as a subclinical, reversible stage that may progress to chronic disease if left untreated.
With our emphasis on prevention, Dr. Lai formulates individualised healthcare plans to address sub-optimal health issues and age-related concerns from a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective.
Chronic Disease Support
Chronic diseases are complex and varied in nature, encompassing many different illnesses and health conditions. These conditions are typically long-lasting, have persistent effects, and significantly impact an individual's quality of life.
Dr. Lai has extensive experience in supporting patients with chronic diseases, working to improve symptoms, enhance quality of life, and address the underlying patterns of disharmony that contribute to these conditions.
