Acupuncture
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine is an ancient healing modality dating back over 2,500 years.
The art of Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine needles on specific acupuncture points along energetic pathways called meridians. The action of this ignites a shift in the body that allows the free flow of energy (qi) and fundamental change.
The selection of these points is completely individualised to you and your Acupuncturist will determine the appropriate point selection after an initial consultation where your health history and presenting complaints will be discussed.
The pulse and tongue are also used as diagnostic tools as well as adjunctive therapies such as moxibustion; a form of heat therapy, chinese massage & cupping and herbal medicine.
Due to the individualised approach of Acupuncture each treatment has a very direct effect on your overall health, as well as the ability to address several issues at the same time.
Acupuncture has been in spotlight of the medical world for centuries and modern research has shown Acupuncture to be a safe, pain free treatment method that is effective in resolving a variety of health and pain-related conditions.
