Acupuncture needling: Acupuncture is based on the concept of Qi (pronounced "chee"), the vital energy that flows through meridians, or pathways, in the body. According to the Traditional Chinese medicine theory, disruptions or imbalances in the flow of Qi can lead to illness or discomfort. Acupuncture needles are inserted into acupuncture points along these meridians to restore the smooth flow of Qi and promote balance within the body. During an acupuncture session, the practitioner carefully selects acupuncture points based on the patient's symptoms, constitution, and overall health goals. The needles are inserted to varying depths, depending on the location and condition being treated, and may be gently manipulated to enhance the therapeutic effects.
Some benefits of Acupuncture Needling are:

Auricular Acupuncture: A form of acupuncture that focuses on the external ear to stimulate specific points, with the aim of treating various physical, mental, and emotional conditions. Also known as ear acupuncture or auriculotherapy, it is based on the principle that the ear is a microsystem that reflects the entire body, where different points correspond to different organs and systems.
Fine needles or other stimulation methods like acupressure, magnets, or ear seeds are applied to specific points on the ear. These points are believed to connect to various parts of the body through the nervous system and energy pathways (meridians) in traditional Chinese medicine.
By stimulating these points, practitioners aim to restore balance and promote healing within the body. The stimulation of ear points can influence the corresponding organs and systems, helping to alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being.
Some benefits of Auricular Acupuncture are:

Moxibustion: A traditional Chinese medicine therapy that involves burning dried mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) to stimulate specific points on the body. This therapy has been practised for centuries and is often used in conjunction with acupuncture, although it can also be used as a standalone treatment.
During a moxibustion session, a practitioner places a small cone or stick of dried mugwort on or near the skin at specific acupuncture points or areas of the body. The mugwort is then ignited and burned slowly, producing heat that penetrates into the skin and underlying tissues.
The heat from moxibustion stimulates the flow of Qi, or vital energy, along the body's meridians—channels through which Qi flows according to traditional Chinese medicine. By promoting the smooth flow of Qi, moxibustion aims to restore balance and harmony within the body, addressing imbalances that may lead to illness or discomfort.
Some benefits of Moxibustion are:
Cupping Therapy: An ancient alternative medicine that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This therapy has been used for centuries in various cultures, including traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), to promote healing, improve blood flow, and alleviate pain.

Cupping Therapy: An ancient alternative medicine that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This therapy has been used for centuries in various cultures, including traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), to promote healing, improve blood flow, and alleviate pain.
How does Cupping Therapy work?
During a cupping session, cups are typically made of glass, bamboo, or silicone and placed on specific body areas. The cups are either heated or used with a suction pump to create a vacuum effect, which draws the skin and underlying tissue upward into the cup.
The suction from the cups creates a negative pressure that helps to release tension, stimulate circulation, and promote the flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood within the body. Cupping therapy is often used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, such as acupuncture, massage, or herbal medicine, to enhance its therapeutic effects.
Some benefits of Cupping Therapy are:
Cupping therapy offers a natural and effective way to promote healing, relaxation, and well-being. Whether you're seeking pain relief, stress reduction, detoxification, immune support, or muscle recovery, cupping therapy can benefit your health and vitality. Experience the rejuvenating effects of cupping and discover a path to greater balance, harmony, and wellness.

Gua Sha: A traditional Chinese healing technique that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged instrument to promote circulation and relieve tension. This ancient practice has been used for centuries to treat various health conditions and is renowned for its ability to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall well-being.
How does Gua Sha Therapy work?
During a Gua Sha session, a practitioner applies oil to the skin and then uses a smooth-edged tool, often made of jade, quartz, or ceramic, to scrape the skin in long, sweeping strokes. The scraping action creates friction, generating heat and increasing blood flow to the area, releasing tension and toxins trapped in the muscles and tissues.
As the skin is scraped, small red or purple marks, known as petechiae or "sha," may appear. These marks are a sign of stagnant blood and toxins being brought to the surface of the skin for elimination. While the marks may look like bruises, they are not painful and typically fade within a few days.
Some benefits of Gua Sha Therapy are:
Gua Sha therapy offers a natural and effective way to promote healing, relaxation, and well-being. Whether you're seeking pain relief, reduced inflammation, detoxification, stress reduction, or immune support, Gua Sha therapy can provide valuable benefits for your health and vitality.

Tui Na involves various hand techniques, including pressing, kneading, rolling, and stretching, to promote healing, alleviate pain, and restore balance within the body.
How does Tui Na Therapy work?
During a Tui Na session, the practitioner applies specific hand techniques to manipulate the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints of the body. Depending on the individual's condition and treatment goals, these techniques may vary in pressure, speed, and depth.
Tui Na therapy focuses on balancing the flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood within the body's meridians, or energy channels. By applying pressure to specific acupuncture points and meridians, Tui Na aims to regulate the body's energy flow and promote harmony between the body, mind, and spirit.

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow, known as Qi, and promote healing.
Acupuncture works by stimulating the body, releasing natural painkillers, and regulating various physiological processes. It helps restore balance and harmony within the body.
Acupuncture is generally not painful. Most people experience minimal discomfort during needle insertion, often describing it as a slight tingling or dull ache. Any discomfort typically subsides quickly.
Acupuncture can effectively treat a wide range of acute and chronic conditions, including pain (such as back pain, migraines, and arthritis), anxiety, stress, insomnia, digestive disorders, and more.
Acupuncture is considered safe when performed by a trained and licensed practitioner. Side effects are rare but may include minor bruising, soreness, or light-headedness, which typically resolve quickly.
The number of acupuncture sessions needed varies depending on the individual's condition, severity of symptoms, and response to treatment. Some people may experience relief after just one session, while others may require multiple sessions for sustained improvement.
It is variable. The first session usually takes 1.5 to 2 hours, as it includes a full initial diagnosis, physical exam, and treatment. A typical following acupuncture session lasts between 45 and 60 minutes.
During a routine acupuncture session, the practitioner will conduct an initial assessment, discuss your health concerns, and create a personalised treatment plan. You will lie comfortably while the practitioner inserts thin needles into specific acupuncture points.
Acupuncture is generally safe during pregnancy when performed by a qualified practitioner. It can help alleviate common pregnancy-related symptoms such as nausea, back pain, fatigue, and stress. However, it's essential to inform your acupuncturist if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant to ensure safe and appropriate treatment.
