Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese method of healing which requires placing
fine needles on specific points along the meridian pathways affecting vital energy,
known as Qi, restoring balanced health and harmony.
Acupuncture is known to release endorphins and other helpful chemical substances,
therefore it is a natural healing method. It is used for many emotional and physical
imbalances in the body and is also used as a preventative medicine.
Emotions have long thought to be at the root of many diseases and conditions. In
Chinese Medicine, the 5 cardinal emotions or 5 element phases of Joy, Anger, Worry,
Grief and Fear are thought to be primary causes of diseases. Strengthening the Liver for
example has the effect of reducing Anger, the Liver's associated emotion.
Some of the Conditions that the treatment can benefit include: Restoring the immune
system, Back Pain, IBS, Parkinson's Disease, Respiratory Conditions, Migraines, Frozen
Shoulder, Tennis Elbow, Sciatica, Insomnia, Diabetes, Gout, Stress and Menstrual
problems.

dates back many thousands of years. It involves use of natural plants and minerals. Each
has its own specific characteristics and particular medicinal use for treating diseases,
to rectify the imbalance of the Yin and Yang and to strengthen the immune system.

person's individual needs and requirements. A consultation is necessary before herbs are
administered.

Spinal Acupuncture
Spinal or Para Vertebral Acupuncture is an effective Acupuncture Therapy
which uses the central nervous system to treat the whole body. It can have an inhibiting
or strengthening effect on the nerves depending on the direction of insertion and
manipulation of needles.
Spinal nerves control specific internal and hollow organs which can be regulated with
this method producing relief or cure of a variety of symptoms and conditions.
Some of the conditions that Spinal Acupuncture can benefit are: Sciatica, Whiplash
injuries, Paralysis, Stroke victims, Chronic pain, Muscular spasm and Inflammation.
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture
The face is made up of numerous muscles capable of complex interactions. The
insertion of fine Acupuncture needles into the specific points of the face stimulate the
flow of energy thereby increasing the blood flow, aiding lymphatic drainage, relaxes
facial muscles and increases elasticity of the skin. Sometimes we use an Acupuncture
machine to produce a small electrical charge between two needles. Benefits of this
treatment are: Reduction of lines and a more youthful complexion.
