CULTURAL EXCHANGE        

 We have evolved our scope to include the individuals who practice the healing arts and disciplines of China and India with the creation of a cultural exchange program designed to bring Chen Taiji Quan, TCM, along with Ayurvedic Medicine to Eugene, Oregon. This is a part of our direct approach to health and fitness supplemented with herbal rejuvenation integrated into primary care via Naturopathy, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). 

We currently support the integration of health and fitness to include Natural Herbal Medicines (as food), along with Chen Taiji Quan. Our clinic facilitates the healing and revitalization process for all who come to us, with special focus on women and the elderly. Chen Taiji Quan Grandmaster Gui Zhen Chen will support our program's focus in the community by teaching her profound art within  guided programs involving natural medicine supported by participating physicians. Our goal is to certify our Chinese participants such that their work with different levels of healing through movement and exercise will eventually open new levels of practice and opportunity to our community as well as our foreign participant's home communities in China and India, as well.

Our model is truly the cutting edge in holistic health and cross cultural participation. Our natural medicines include prescriptions for powerful remedies that, in most cases, are directly available from nature. These are not new or strange. Some of them have been used daily by all of us since the dawn of time.  Today, however, they are the object of intensive scrutiny and are emerging from scientific laboratories in several continents as the most powerful remedies for the treatment and prevention of disease as well as the promotion of health and quality of life.

Ayurvedic, Naturopathic, and Traditional Chinese Medicine have always treated in this way and now combine and exchange ideas under one roof at Soterion. These natural and simple remedies include:

 

ü       Breathing Pure Air

ü       Drinking Pure Water

ü       Practicing Exercise Daily

ü       Cultivating Appropriate Rest

ü       Using Appropriate Nutrition

ü       Abstaining from Harmful Substances

ü       Cultivating Love, Joy, and Peace

ü       Cherishing Sunlight

ü       Trusting in the Divine

ü       Using Natural Medicinal Substances Judiciously

Our program is designed to reach out to practitioners in China and India and integrate their lifestyles, art and skills into our community here in Eugene primarily, then Oregon, and eventually every community that will see the merit in "Climacteric Transitions"©. Our new staff will be exposure to, not only the work and social environment but also, the academic environment via the interests of Colleges teaching Natural and Oriental Medicine in Oregon and throughout the country. Grandmaster Gui Zhen Chen will also integrate into our culture and community by learning our language  and acquiring other certifications such that she can work more closely with patients under the direction of our Doctors and through ancient arts of Chi manipulation. She has merged her expert knowledge of energy and its manipulation through movement to compensate and promote healing, vitality and Chi growth with our ancient and current knowledge of herbal nutrients.

 Our Foreign Nationals will also teach their traditional arts from their respective disciplines, directly through interactive classes advertised as genuine, from the source, training and instruction. So keep checking our website for announcements, we look forward to promoting your health and well being. Don't forget - Chen Taiji is also one of the most profound forms of self defense.
