About Acupuncture

 

The Chinese recognised that the body naturally strived to heal itself, but realised other factors, such as Excessive workloads, Emotional upset, Injury, Illness, or Poor diet would interfere in this process. This then lead to a depletion or blockage of the bodies energy/ Qi  (pronounced Chee), and consequently an imbalance in the body.

 Your practitioner can relieve and restore this flow of Qi, by inserting fine, sterile needles in and around these blocked areas, to bring balance back to your Yin and Yang elements, allowing your body’s own healing mechanisms to regain health and stamina.

Today this concept is still recognised as the main cause of modern day injury and illness in your body.

What does it treat?

Many people come to acupuncture for help with specific symptoms or to relieve specific pains like osteoarthritis of the knee. Some use acupuncture because they feel generally unwell but have no obvious diagnosis. Others choose acupuncture simply to enhance their feeling of wellbeing. Acupuncture is considered suitable for all ages including babies and children. It can be used effectively alongside conventional medicine.

Chinese Acupuncture points and Channels are found all over the body, with each one having a particular function and action. Your practitioner has been fully trained in how to locate and utilise these points to the best advantage, choosing the most effective ones for your condition. 

In general Acupuncture is brilliant at helping your body to cope with life's ups and downs. It maintains the balance between your Yin and Yang energies, keeping you Healthy Happy, and full of Vitality. 

 I believe everyone deserves a chance to reach his or her full potential in life.
