INTEGRATED MEDICINE
Chinese Medicine for Balanced Skin Health
At Sustain Health, we treat skin conditions by going beyond the surface to address the root causes. In Chinese medicine, the skin often mirrors internal imbalances, especially in key organs like the lungs, digestive system, and liver. These underlying factors can disrupt harmony within the body and manifest as conditions like eczema, acne, or psoriasis. Our approach focuses on rebalancing these systems to support skin health from within.
For many adults, skin issues are also influenced by stress, anxiety, and emotional health. By taking a holistic view, we address both the visible skin symptoms and the deeper factors that contribute to them. Through acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, our treatments are designed to restore balance and support the body’s healing process, offering a comprehensive approach to lasting skin health.
