Traditional chinese medicine methods in My Physio by Kanitta Clinic
About the clinic
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) methods at My Physio by Kanitta Clinic in Phuket, Thailand, provide a personalized way to address chronic pain and systemic health issues. These therapies focus on balancing the body’s energy, known as Qi, to help the natural healing process. The clinic stands out for its use of authentic diagnostic techniques and customized herbal treatments.
Personalized TCM Diagnostics
Each treatment plan starts with a detailed health assessment. Doctors use traditional methods to find the root cause of symptoms rather than just treating the surface pain. These diagnostic steps include:
- Pulse diagnosis to check the health of internal organs.
- Tongue inspection to observe changes in color and texture.
- Observation and questioning about daily habits and energy levels.
- Yin-Yang and Five Elements theory to assess body balance.
Traditional Therapy Options
The clinic offers a wide range of therapies to improve circulation and reduce inflammation. Patients can choose from several methods based on their specific diagnosis. Common treatments include:
- Acupuncture using traditional or dry needling to stimulate specific points.
- Electroacupuncture which uses mild electrical currents for deeper stimulation.
- Cupping therapy using fire vacuum cups to help blood flow.
- Tuina massage to relieve muscle tension and improve Qi movement.
- Gua Sha for facial and body detoxification.
Customized Herbal Medicine
Herbal therapy is a central part of the recovery process. The clinic provides customized Chinese herbal formulas tailored to each patient's condition. These formulas come in extract granules, which are easy to take and help the body absorb the medicine quickly. This method aims to enhance immunity and restore the balance of Yin and Yang.

Dr. Patchareeporn Phiset graduated with honors from the University of Phayao and completed clinical training at Guangxi TCM University in China.
