HOW DOES IT
WORK?
Acupuncture can be used
alone or in combination with other methods of Traditional
Chinese Medicine (TCM). In the hands of a fully qualified
professional practitioner the use of Acupuncture is entirely
safe and free from any harmful side-effects.
Acupuncture is a system of medicine as old as man
himself. It has
successfully withstood the test of time. According to TCM,
health is based on the balance or flow of energy
or Qi (pronounced chee) in the body. This energy runs
through the body along invisible lines
called meridians. There are twelve main channels of Qi in
the body, each connected to an internal organ.
When healthy, the body's energy or Qi flows smoothly.
When the energy is blocked or disrupted,
illness, fatigue, and even disease can result. Acupuncture
involves the insertion of very fine hair-like
pre-sterilised disposable needles at specific points along
these meridians, thus stimulating the release of
energy and the body's own healing ability. By releasing
blocked energy, acupuncture effectively relieves pain,
restores energy and improves individual health and well
being.
93% of
commonly presenting illnesses have shown improvement
following a course of acupuncture
treatment. The speed and rate of individual recovery
depends on the length of time the individual
has the injury or illness, its severity, and the individuals
constitutional strength.
However, experience does indicate that chronic and acute
problems benefit greatly from acupuncture.
The earlier the treatment, the more effective it can be. |

IS IT EVER
DANGEROUS?
NO!
Acupuncture is an entirely drug-free healthcare system.
It works by restoring the body's energetic
balance and stimulating the body's natural healing
ability. In all treatments sterile, disposable needles
are
used. Women can be treated for any complications of
pregnancy without causing any harm to mother or
baby, although certain acupuncture points, need to be avoided
if there is any likelihood of miscarriage. |
