Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Vancouver

Results from Traditional Chinese Medicine vary depending on the condition being treated, how long it has persisted, and your overall health. Some people experience relief after just one session, while others may need several treatments to notice significant improvement. Chronic or complex issues typically require a longer course of care. 

Our practitioners design personalized treatment plans that are reassessed regularly to ensure progress. Many clients also report benefits beyond their initial concerns, such as improved sleep, reduced stress, and increased energy. Consistency and commitment to the process are key for achieving lasting results.

Your first Traditional Chinese Medicine appointment involves a comprehensive consultation where we explore your medical history, lifestyle, and current symptoms. You’ll be asked about digestion, sleep, energy, and other body functions—even if they don’t seem related—because TCM takes a holistic view of health. 

Based on this, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan, which may include acupuncture or other techniques. The session is designed to be relaxing and informative. We’ll also provide tips on how to support your healing outside the clinic through simple adjustments to diet, movement, or daily habits.

Absolutely. Traditional Chinese Medicine integrates well with other therapies such as physiotherapy, massage, and even Western medical treatments. In fact, many of our clients at Treloar Physiotherapy Clinic combine services to enhance recovery, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility. 

TCM can be particularly effective in addressing systemic issues that may be impacting physical healing, like poor sleep, chronic stress, or internal imbalances. Our collaborative care model ensures that treatments are complementary, not conflicting, so you receive the most well-rounded and efficient path to recovery possible.
