Our Philosophy
At the Dr Han Clinic, we believe the body requires constant nurturing, and with the right treatment, to you can maintain good health into old age. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is guided by three core principles...
Holistic Healing
Traditional Chinese Medicine views the human body as a complete and interconnected system, not only within itself but also to the external environment. This approach emphasises the importance of balance both between the body's internal organs and energy pathways (known as meridians), and between the body and its surroundings.
Nurturing Vital Energy (Qi)
A central goal of Traditional Chinese Medicine is to protect and strengthen Qi (pronounced "chee"), the body’s vital life energy. Among various preventative health practices, maintaining strong and balanced Qi is considered the most essential for preventing illness and promoting overall wellness.
Mind-Body Integration
Traditional Chinese Medicine recognises that true health includes both physical and mental well-being. Because emotional and psychological factors can significantly impact physical health, TCM places strong emphasis on mental balance and emotional regulation, often prioritising them in prevention and treatment strategies.
