Chinese Herbs and Acupuncture

Chinese medicine is an ancient system of healing developed over thousands of years in China, Japan and other eastern countries. It is a complete medical system that restores and maintains health either by insertion of fine needles into points just beneath the body surface which life is specific locations on channels of energy, or by using naturally occurring substances which have treated and prevented illness for over 23 centuries.

What Can It Help?

While it can remedy illness, chinese medicine can also enhance recuperative power, immunity and the capacity for pleasure, work and creativity. Chinese medicine can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, both acute and chronic, gynaecological, gastrointestinal, psychological (i.e. anxiety or panic attacks), orthopaedic and paediatric problems, as well as infectious diseases such as colds and flu. It is also used for pregnancy management and delivery. While extensive practice and research has shown that chinese medicine is effective in helping people with specific conditions it does more than simply relieve symptoms.

Your Consultation

The aim is to treat the whole person and restore balance between physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the individual. In traditional chinese medicine since all illness is considered the result of an imbalance of energy, treatment can benefit almost any ill person as long as the degenerative process in the body tissues is not too extensive. Many people also come for treatment as a preventative measure or because they feel unwell in themselves but are not 'ill' in the Western sense.
