Acupuncture
Traditional acupuncture has a very long & positive history of use for promoting & restoring health & well-being.
Your personalised treatment plan will be tailor-made with you to help you reach your health goals in the best way for you. This may sometimes include massage, cupping, or heat therapy as an adjunct to your acupuncture.
Herbal Medicine
Chinese medicinal herbs have a rich history spanning thousands of years & their use is as relevant today as it has ever been.
Your individually formulated herbal prescription will be skilfully prepared & dispensed just for you, most often in a form that can be conveniently taken anywhere & mixed with boiled water, much like your favourite cup of tea.
Lifestyle Advice
Lifestyle guidance is often a part of acupuncture & herbal medicine consultations, but is also available as an alternative.
Work, expectations, routines, diet, exercise, sleep, emotional & spiritual well being all impact on your health & your bespoke lifestyle map will guide you with small steps that add up to big improvements in how you feel.
Traditional acupuncture & herbal medicine are both excellent standalone options for improving your health & well-being & you may well have a particular preference for one of them. However, the synergistic effects of taking both together with each supporting, balancing, & promoting the other is to be recommended & is very much worth more than the sum of the parts. To complement these treatment modalities I stock a small selection of herbal & functional teas, plus other appropriate herbal products, the purchase of which is not dependent on treatment. You’re most welcome to call in at 5a Eastgate, or hit the ‘Shop’ button and purchase online.
Your acupuncture treatment may sometimes include cupping, tui na, or gua sha massage, and/or moxabustion heat therapy. Additionally you may choose to opt for a Hopi Ear Candle Treatment, and you can even have your ears pierced with me!
When the Heart is at Ease, the Body is Healthy.
chinese proverb
The aims of traditional Chinese medicine are to restore, preserve, & promote health & longevity.
The body, mind, & spirit are not independent entities. We are Whole.
