Autoimmune Disease
Autoimmune (AI) diseases comprise a large number of diseases that are very different from one another. The most common ones seen in the clinic are:
Multiple sclerosis
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
Rheumatoid arthritis
Sjogren’s Syndrome
Hashimoto Thyroiditis
Graves’ Disease
Crohn’s Disease
TCM looks at each individual manifestation of AI disease, and works with medicinal herbs to calm the immune system and help prevent flare-ups. Each patient is treated on a case by case basis on where they are that day when they come to the clnic. There is no blanket ‘one size fits all’ treatment.
Research has shown much promise in TCM and AI disease.
