Acupuncture
Acupuncture originated in China and is a well-established treatment practiced throughout the world.
It has been recognised for many years as an effective means of treating musculoskeletal disorders such as back and neck pain, as well as osteoarthritis of the knees, but it has far wider applications.
However, Acupuncture is now also commonly used to help support fertility treatment, and to alleviate gynaecological problems, allergies such as hay fever, digestive diseases, and mental-emotional problems such as anxiety.
Acupuncturists adopt a holistic approach and use acupuncture and moxibustion to move and regulate your 'Qi', the body's vital energy, restoring its harmonious flow through the body's channel system and stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms.
Modern research has shown that acupuncture also exerts a strong effect on the central nervous system, which can explain its ability to modulate pain so effectively.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese Herbal Medicine is particularly effective in the treatment of skin problems, digestive issues, gynaecological problems, and respiratory tract disorders.
Whilst acupuncture and moxibustion excel at moving Qi, Chinese Herbal Medicine works at a more material level to expel the pathogenic factors that lead to disease, and to strengthen deficiencies in the body.
Combined Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine
Using Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine together significantly extends the treatment's range and potency.
Taking herbal medicine every day is a highly effective regular intervention that reinforces and strengthens the benefits of treatment, enabling substantial changes to be made and a lasting recovery of good health.
