Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a ancient healing practice that is over 2000 years old, discovered and developed in Asia and India and now practiced around the world. The theory of acupuncture is based on the natural healing and energy flow 'QI' of the body, which is within us all. Our Qi or energy flow maintains our body ' Yin and Yang', our health and balance, ensuring we remain harmonised within ourselves. These energy channels can become stagnant or blocked by stress, physical or mental conditions, causing illness or pain within the body, restricting the body from releasing it naturally.
The insertion of hair thin needles (single use) are used in precise points around the body, that represents certain organs or body function, that set of a chain reaction along the nervous system, that signals the release of natural pain relief, happy and feel good hormones and healing bio chemicals, that encourage the body to release the blockage and start the process of healing.
The benefits of Acupuncture frequently include the healing more than just the presenting condition, many patients report experiencing an increase in energy, better quality sleep, healthier appetite, reduces stress, anxiety and pain as well as a sense of an overall improved wellbeing. Traditional Chinese Acupuncture can be used to treat a wide range of illnesses and health conditions, with great success. There are now scientific studies that support this.
