ZHAO Eric

His background

I trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine for 5 years at the Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and learned clinically in four different hospitals in China.

I practice traditional Chinese medicine: acupuncture, Tui Na massage, moxibustion and TCM herbal medicine.

Care

I begin all my treatments with an anamnesis, during which I examine the patient to determine any energetic imbalances.

We then take the time to discuss the various points he would like to work on. We can then set a goal together, for which I choose the appropriate treatment method.

Acupuncture

A session lasts 1 hour. I place the needles and let my patient relax to benefit fully from the stimulation of the acupuncture points. I stay with my patient throughout the session to answer any questions he may have, or use this time to prescribe a herbal formula if required.

Moxibustion and cupping

I sometimes complement the acupuncture method with moxibustion or cupping as required.

Tui Na massage

A session lasts 1 hour. Based on a medical history, I select the meridians and points to work on. I then massage to relax muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia along the meridians.

Once these tissues have regained their tone and suppleness, I can choose to readjust the alignment of certain joints with very gentle movements.
