A Proven Safe Effective Treatment for Many Diseases

Acupuncture which is a central part of Traditional and Modern Chinese Medicine has been practiced in China and other Eastern Countries for over 2,500 years.

It is a system of healing which focuses on:-

• improving the overall wellbeing of a patient by strengtheneing and balancing the energy system
• treating the cause of the condition which is very different to Western Medicine
• preventing the return of symptoms by maintaining strength and balance of the engery systems

Traditional Chinese philosophy views our health as:-

• dependant on the free flow and balanced movement of the body's energy(Qi - pronounced Chee)
• energy flowing through a series of channels beneath the skin
• each channel affecting a different part of the body

Dis-ease of the body can be caused by number of factors which include:-

• prolonged emotional states such as anxiety, stress, anger, fear or grief
• weather conditions and lingering viruses
• hereditary factors
• infections and poisons
• trauma

Acupuncture is often linked to pain relief and Western Healthcare professionals often use it as an adjunct to their main therapy such a physiotherapy or prescription drugs.

However, modern Chinese Medicine looks much more deeply into your constitution in order to treat underlying causes of a wide spectrum of conditions which include:-

• Anxiety, Panic Attacks
• Depression and grief
• Poor sleep patterns
• Asthma and breathing problems
• Coughs - Lingering viruses
• High Blood Pressure
• Circulatory problems
• Headaches / Migraine
• Digestive disorders / bowel problems
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
• Bloating / Intigestion / Hiatus Hernia
• Constipation / Diarrhoea
• Gyny problems - Period Problems / Infertility / Menopause
• Skin Conditions and Ulcers
• Symptoms of Arthritis / Rheumatism / Back Pain
• Indeterminate Aches and Pains
