Traditional Chinese Acupuncture

Acupuncture is an extremely safe & very effective treatment for a wide range of problems. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) (acupuncture in combination with herbalism) has been the priciple form of heal;th care in China for an estimated 5000years. Written records exist from 1000BC documenting the developing theories & accumulated knowledge. Over the vast span of time TCM has adjusted to changing circumstances. The combination of new medical understanding & technology with ancient principles is producing exciting advances in research.

Acupuncture is the major part of my treatment, assisted by Cupping, Moxibustion or Auricular therapy. Acupuncture uses fine (0.25mm) disposable needles, placed at specific positions on the energy channels. these balance energies within the body, expel toxic elements and help to achieve healthy organ function. Sometimes it is helpful to include Nutritional or Herbal prescriptions - here, trained practitioners are consulted separately.

• Chronic & degenerative conditions

• Digestive

• Urinary

• Gynaecology

• Mobility

• Pain conditions

• Stress
