Acupuncture:

What is it?

Acupuncture is the practice of insertion of very fine and sterile needles that are inserted to specific points in the body that are referred to as meridians or the body’s energy flow lines. This stimulates the regular flow of the energy or Qi throughout the body. Other methods that may be adopted during treatment may include: acupressure, laser therapy, moxibustion, massage, cupping and electro stimulation

Following a thorough case history from the patient, a series of physical examinations may be performed such as identifying localised areas of the body that may be in pain, or identifying underlying presentations that can not be seen via tongue and pusle analysis. A treatment plan is then developed to support individual therapy.
