Until the recent past, human beings lived according to the seasons. They ate food foraged, caught or grown locally, used their physical bodies to perform their work or household duties and they lived more simply, more connected to the people and environment where they dwelled. Yes, we live longer than our ancestors, thanks to modern medicine and conveniences, but at what cost to our overall well-being?
We as a species have grown more and more disconnected from our natural world and the natural rhythms that are all around us. Societal pressures, deadlines, cultural expectations and desires all play a hand in distracting us from living our lives to the fullest. So many of the imbalances we experience today are the result of the stress of living out of balance with who we really are (our life's purpose/destiny) and our disconnection from our natural environment.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has been practiced for centuries and continues to prove itself effective in treating many conditions of imbalance that allopathic medicine has difficulty treating.

Children's health
Report
Children are dynamic and adaptable little beings.
Children generally respond quickly to natural medicine and have very successful outcomes.
Many childhood conditions can be treated easily and successfully without invasive methods or strong pharmaceutical medicine.
It can be very upsetting when our children are sick, from something as small as a cold/flu bug to something more serious like asthma.
It is painful to see them suffer.
Stacey carefully observes the needs of each individual child and creates a wellness plan that will not only help physical symptoms and complaints, but strengthen their ability to maximize their full potential on many different levels.
