Equilibrium Zen Gym

Introduction: Equilibrium Zen Gym -- "Bringing Balance To Your Life" We treat the whole person. Equilibrium Zen Gym is offering a new way to take care of your own health and also offers you a variety of ways to improve your own well-being. Having a regular workout schedule will not only get your body in shape; it will also release endorphins that improve your mood and take away depression (yes, with the assistance of your physician, you could wean yourself off of your anti-depressants). We offer aerobics and fitness classes, a personalized workout schedule, personal training, tai chi and medical QiGong. Equilibrium's practitioners base their work on traditional Chinese medicine such as acutapping, chinese herbal medicine, cupping, medical qigong, nutritional counseling, reflexology, Reiki and massage. TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) takes a less aggressive approach than conventional medicine. TCM practitioners believe that an illness is caused by more than one factor, such as an inner problem that has weakened the body's natural defenses. TCM heals by strengthening the body, removing any obstacles to well-being as well as improving the energy flow. Everything is aimed at strengthening and healing the whole self, including the non-physical, such as the spiritual and emotional level; rather than identifying and attacking certain unwanted symptoms. TCM practitioners will work on the symptoms as well, to make the patient more comfortable while dealing with the deeper problem. What they don't do is work on the symptoms alone, since suppressing the symptoms will force the problem to express itself in some other way. By continually suppressing symptoms without treating the root problem, the ailment will go on getting worse, causing even more serious effects and finally damaging the entire system.
