BONE SETTING

Rooted in the ancient principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), chinese bone setting treatment (正骨 / 'zheng gu') has been used for centuries to address joint and muscle conditions. This natural and non-invasive therapy utilises specialised techniques to correct misalignments, remove any blockages or obstructions in the joints, and further enhance the body's mobility.

Benefits of Bone Setting
