CD – Management of Mental Health Conditions using TCM (2014)
The use of Asian Medicine for the treatment of mental and emotional concerns has always been engrained in the Daoist philosophy of achieving balance. The holistic practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) sees any concern in the body as an imbalance of the body’s energy, and therefore may cause injury elsewhere in the body. According to Statistics Canada in 2012, “17% (4.9 million individuals) of Canadians perceived themselves as having had a need for mental health care in the past 12 months”. This talk will focus on how to understand the cause of mental health concerns, which will then guide participants on how to treat these conditions.
