At Shift You, we advocate a principle similar to that of Traditional Chinese Medicine: a global approach to understanding the processes of disease and health, which focuses on prevention as treatment of disease.

The disease is, in the light of Chinese Medicine, caused by external or environmental factors, emotions or unhealthy lifestyle habits. That is why we offer at Shift You the tools we believe are necessary to prevent disease situations.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a natural health care system with more than 2000 years that manifests itself in an understanding of the world and reality interpreted in the light of several theories. And it branches into 5 major areas: Acupuncture, Tui Na (Chinese massage), Phytotherapy, Nutrition and Qi Gong.

When there is an imbalance or blockage of the flow of energy through the body’s meridians, health is severely affected. The disease is, in the light of Chinese Medicine, caused by external or environmental factors, emotions or unhealthy lifestyle habits.

TCM stimulates the body’s own regenerative functions taking into account all aspects of the patient’s life and not just the signs and symptoms it shows.

Assessment: Brief conversation with the patient and collection of information necessary to formulate a diagnosis. The specialist will also see the patient’s tongue and pulse.

Treatment: The treatment is carried out (when an acupuncture treatment is applied, disposable needles are used along the body’s meridians, and the patient will rest while the needles work).

Post-treatment: Some phytotherapy (use of medicinal plants) may be suggested, as well as nutritional advice.

Each consultation lasts 50 min and the number of treatments will depend on the case of each patient.
