Acupuncture is thousands of years old but is still a relevant healing practice experienced by millions of people across the globe.
With each session individually crafted to meet your specific needs, acupuncture and TCM practice is not a one size fits all approach. You and your needs are at the heart of each treatment.
Using fine, sterile needles, the acupuncturist inserts them at specific places along the body which encourages the body to remember it's normal way of functioning, not the work around it has adopted. When the body restores itself, balance occurs, symptoms reduce or clear up and you can go back to being the amazing individual that you are.
Is a holistic medicine, a whole system approach, meaning it looks at all of you, your mind, body and spirit. It is not an either/or approach, looking at just one part of you, instead it looks at your entirety and the complexities and relationships between all parts of you, how they function and cooperate together and how they are affected by the world around them.
Ultimately it's goal is to bring you back into balance, to restore equilibrium.
When you are out of balance, whether that is emotionally, mentally, physically or even spiritually, it can make you feel out of sorts. If this imbalance is prolonged due to injury, stress, illness or chronic pain the imbalance in the mind, body and spirit can lead to more emotional or physical symptoms. TCM aims to restore balance to the body by restoring the natural rhythm and flow of the systems within, helping to reduce symptoms.
In your initial appointment you can expect an in-depth consultation on your reason for seeking acupuncture but also other areas of your life, including medical history, diet, sleep, medication and some more. It may seem a little weird and you may be wondering why any of that is relevant but TCM looks at you as a whole, not individual parts and all these parts make up who you are. They are often relevant to the issue you are seeking acupuncture for.
The initial appointment is usually 90 minutes long with subsequent treatments being 60 minutes.
The consultation will also include:
Every acupuncture session is unique to you and your needs and may involve other supplementary treatments such as cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, electroacupuncture, massage or heat lamp, to complement and enhance your acupuncture treatment.
This is included within the cost of your acupuncture treatment.
The actual acupuncture involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles at specific points along the body to elicit a healing response, encouraging balance within and between the systems of the body.
You can expect to feel perhaps a slight tingling feeling, warmth or sometimes a dull ache at the acupuncture site but this is completely normal and often quite a good feeling.
The treatment usually lasts between 20-30 minutes, giving your body plenty of time to work its magic and you plenty of time to relax.
