Acupuncture
-
Acupuncture sits within the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) health field and has been used for thousands of years. Acupuncture consists of inserting fine needles (about the width of a human hair) into specific points on your skin. The goal is to restore balance and encourage the body to heal itself. Performed by a skilled practitioner – an acupuncturist – acupuncture can be a safe and effective treatment for a range of disorders.
In the most general sense, disease occurs when your Yin & Yang energies are out of balance, which can manifest as disharmony of your organ systems, digestion, hormone production, mental states and a dysfunction of a number of physiological systems. Acupuncture aims to harmonise these interdependent forces in order to ensure your energetic and physiological systems are functioning optimally.

Electro Acupuncture
-
This type of acupuncture treatment is ideal for chronically weak and tight muscles, sports injuries, musculoskeletal pain, and other disorders.
Motor & Trigger Point Acupuncture merges traditional acupuncture principles with contemporary anatomical and neurophysiological understanding of muscle injuries and pain management. This style of Acupuncture is particularly useful in the management of both acute and chronic muscle injures and pain management.
Motor Point Acupuncture involves gently needling specialised points located within the belly of the muscles that conduct motor nerve impulses. Stimulating these points with gentle acupuncture needling or by running a small electric current to the area (aka Electro-acupuncture) can restore muscle function, regulate and improve range of motion and reduce pain whether localised or referred.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
-
Cosmetic Acupuncture involves inserting specialised acupuncture needles into problem areas of the face in order to stimulate blood flow which increases the flow of nutrients, oxygen and hydration in the area leading to a reduction of fine lines and an improvement in skin tone and quality.
Additionally, the micro-trauma caused by needling increases collagen production by stimulating the body’s own healing response and promoting fibroblast cells to increase the production of collagen and elastin. When the body lays down collagen in the areas of wrinkles it gives the effect of filling them in.
When needling the face for cosmetic enhancement, a number of techniques can be used depending on the client's main cosmetic concerns. In general, the premise of Facial Cosmetic Acupucnture is to promote the circulation of Qi and Blood in order to influence the flow of nutrients and oxygen to the facial soft tissue as well as the removal of metabolic waste.
Cosmetic Acupuncture has a number of mechanisms underlying its effectiveness including balancing Qi, harmonising the Zang Fu (body organ systems), increasing blood flow at the site of needle insertion and increasing muscle tone.
As there are a range of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that influence the aging process, all Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments include constitutional body TCM acupuncture in order to treat your organism as a whole.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
-
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a holistic approach that utilises natural substances to promote healing and balance within the body. It is based on the ancient principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which views health as a harmonious balance of body, mind, and spirit.
Herbal treatments consist of various plant-based materials, including roots, bark, flowers, and leaves, that are carefully selected to address specific health concerns or to enhance overall wellbeing. Each herb has unique properties and effects, and they are often combined into formulas tailored to individual needs.
Practitioners conduct a thorough assessment of each patient's condition, taking into account their physical symptoms, emotional state, and lifestyle factors. This personalised approach ensures that the herbal remedies not only target the immediate issues but also support long-term health.
Chinese Herbal Medicine can help with a variety of conditions, including digestive disturbances, respiratory issues, skin problems, and emotional imbalances. With a focus on restoring the body's natural balance, this ancient practice offers a gentle yet powerful alternative or complement to conventional treatments.
TCM Dietetics
-
Chinese Medicine Dietetics (Food Therapy), grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), offers a holistic approach to enhancing health and well-being through diet. This therapy emphasises the importance of food as medicine, utilising the principles of TCM to balance the body’s energy, improve organ function, and address specific health concerns.
Food therapy in TCM goes beyond general nutrition, considering the energetic effects of foods and their impact on different organ systems, it takes into account an individual's constitution, current health condition, and seasonal changes.
Qi Gong & Lifestyle
-
Qi Gong is an ancient Chinese practice that combines gentle movements, breathing exercises, and meditation to cultivate and balance the body's vital energy (Qi).
This holistic practice offers numerous benefits, including improved physical health, enhanced mental clarity, and emotional stability. By integrating slow, deliberate movements with deep, mindful breathing, Qi Gong helps to increase flexibility, strengthen muscles, and improve overall circulation. It also promotes relaxation and reduces stress by calming the mind and fostering a deep sense of inner peace.
Regular practice of Qi Gong can boost the immune system, enhance mental focus, and support emotional well-being, making it a valuable tool for maintaining a balanced and harmonious lifestyle in today's stressed society
