& Chinese Medicine

Acupuncture is an evidence based treatment which demonstrably reduces pain, reduces stress, improves mood, sleep and energy, and contributes to your improved quality of life, health and well-being. Move energy and you will create the conditions for healing!

ACUPUNCTURE – the Yin Yang balance of the flow of Qi, (or life force) involves the insertion of small needles on the body to improve micro-circulation and affect oxygen supply. Acupuncture restores balance and helps the body regulate itself by exciting our biochemical energy response which flows through the meridian pathways in our bodies.
The systems of Acupuncture Available at the Centre include:
TCM
Five Element Acupuncture
Tung Acupuncture
Battlefield Acupuncture (auricular)

NADA Protocol (auricular)

We also offer LASER ACUPUNCTURE ~

The use of single light low level lasers instead of needles.
• This is a new advanced method using laser needles which are attached to the skin without penetrating it, to create a gentle stimulation on Acupuncture points.

• A unique combination of energy stimulation which offers a great therapeutic outcome.

The use of Chinese herbs and Acupuncture as part of TCM has been developed over 3,500 years. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines traditional medicine as “the sum total of the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences used in the maintenance of health as well as in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness”.

In UK Chinese medicine only herbal products are used. Each plant has its own characteristics and medical use to balance the over or under energy flow of Yin and Yang within the body into positive harmony. What matters most is finding an exceptionally qualified practitioner with a superior knowledge of the quality of the medicine, using a trusted supplier as the source of the products prescribed.

Conditions can be effectively treated with TCM (acupuncture w/ herbs) include:

  • Chemotherapy-induced and postoperative nausea and vomiting ~ Cancer recovery
  • Acute, Chronic and Neuropathic pain
  • Back and Neck problems
  • Rheumatoid, Psoriatic and Osteo Arthritis
  • Digestive issues ~ IBS, Crohns

“There is evidence that acupuncture influences the production of and distribution of a great many neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, and that this in turn alters the perception of pain.” ~ David Eisenberg

“I’m cancer-free. And I’m on antioxidants and acupuncture and a different diet. And I have a different outlook on life. I don’t have resentment any more. It’s wonderful.” ~ Louis Gossett, Jr.

We expected the acupuncture to improve the pain. We didn’t really expect the largest benefit to be in fatigue or anxiety.
