Most people visit a TCM clinic only expecting to find traditional treatments such as acupuncture, cupping and guasha available there. While this is usually the case for the majority of the TCM clinics in Singapore, there are also a handful that offer tech-enhanced assessments and therapies for a TCM experience like no other!
Here at Oriental Remedies Group, we pride ourselves on providing every patient with a personalised wellness plan towards better health using treatments enhanced with technology. Our team of wellness specialists and professional physicians come together to ensure TCM treatments and tech-enhanced therapies work in tandem to bring harmony and balance back into your body.
Keep reading to find out more about the six tech-enhanced assessments and therapies available at our TCM clinic.
Tech-enhanced assessments
1. Biowell Meridian Scan
Using Gas Discharge Visualisation technology to capture finger scans, the Biowell Meridian Scan is capable of analysing your meridian energy and identifying imbalances in the body. The data collected shows your stress levels and energy levels based on TCM meridians and your organs and systems – these are valuable insights that will help the physician come up with a treatment plan that renders optimum results.
2. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Assessment
The HRV Assessment focuses on measuring the time interval between your heartbeats to evaluate stress levels. It also studies the autonomic nervous system activity to explore your body’s ability to manage and react to external changes. Being a good indicator of your body’s physiological and psychological state, it is one of the most useful assessments that assist the physician in suggesting treatments that promote both physical and mental well-being.
3. Thermography Body Heat Map
Utilising an industrial-grade infrared thermal camera, the Thermography Body Heat Map is a quick, non-invasive and painless way to map the body temperature, revealing areas with poor blood circulation and inflammation. Results can disclose signs of chronic issues which may require further medical screening, while also identifying sub-health conditions that will help the physician decide on an appropriate treatment plan.
The Biowell Meridian Scan and Thermography Body Heat Map are both exclusively available at Oriental Remedies Clinic’s Orchard location — our physicians will conduct a regular consult before recommending the wellness assessments you may need which can be done on the day itself or during your next visit.
Tech-enhanced therapies
4. Electro-Lymphatic Therapy (ELT)
ELT is performed using an FDA-registered wellness device to stimulate lymphatic drainage and flow, providing similar effects as a manual lymphatic drainage massage or tuina but without discomfort and pressure. Optimal lymphatic health can promote overall well-being by strengthening your immunity and fighting inflammation. It helps to relieve pains and aches, reduce water retention, and even aid in sports recovery and performance.
5. Cell Pro Therapy (CPT)
This made-in-Japan wellness device recharges your body with negative ions to not just improve overall wellness, but also balance the nervous system, enhance cellular metabolism and boost your body’s ability to repair itself. Painless and effective, Cell Pro Therapy (CPT) can double the benefits of TCM treatments, speeding up recovery.
6. Far-Infrared (FIR) Therapy
There are a few variations of FIR Therapy — the Far-Infrared Lamp, Far-Infrared Heating Pad and Far-Infrared Dome. The lamp is great for targeting a specific body area and the dome covers a larger surface area, while the heating pad allows the FIR rays to penetrate through the whole body just by laying down on it. Far-infrared rays provide pain relief and promote recovery, all while improving blood circulation to soothe the mind and body for overall health.
