Classical Acupuncture

Acupuncture has been practised for over 2000 years as a way of achieving and maintaining the optimum health. Acupuncture works by keeping the body's energy flowing and in balance by inserting very fine needles into specific points along channels or 'meridians' that run throughout our body. This in turn induces a sense of wellbeing and boosts the person's own natural healing. The body functions as an integrated whole through the 'meridians' that distribute energy or 'Qi' . Each meridian connects to an organ and affects the function of that organ. Meridians are the pathways through which the organs are nourished and stay in balance enabling proper functioning. Modern scientific evidence has established the existence of the meridian system and is consistent with acupuncture theory. The World Health Organisation lists 40 conditions that acupuncture treats well: Musculoskeletal: arthritis, back pain, muscle cramping, pain or weakness, sciatica Digestive: abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, hyperacidity Emotional: anxiety, depression, insomnia, nervousness, neurosis, stress Eye-Ear-Nose-Throat: cataracts, gingivitis, poor vision, tinnitus, toothache Gynaecological: - infertility, menopausal symptoms, PMT Respiratory: asthma, bronchitis, colds, sinusitis, smoking cessation, tonsillitis [SCROLL DOWN] Neurological: headaches, migraines, neurogenic bladder, Parkinson's disease, postoperative pain, stroke, bell's palsy Miscellaneous: addiction control, athletic performance, blood pressure regulation, chronic fatigue, immune system tonification There are three main areas where Classical Acupuncture is very effective: a) Long-term conditions This is when your symptoms are continuous or appear periodically and conventional medical treatment may have little or no effect. Acupuncture is often a great help in such cases and may even reduce the need for medication. b) Preventative Your energy patterns may show up any potential health problems before they happen. Treating any energetic aberration helps prevent future illness and promotes good health. c) Beyond illness This form of acupuncture can help you achieve your full potential physically, mentally and spiritually. This means that it can help you be at your best and get the most out of life. Maintaining Health Once you start to feel better, this renewed sense of wellbeing can be maintained by periodic treatments. These sessions will continue the healing process and prevent future problems by keeping your energy in balance. For most people, a monthly or a seasonal maintenance treatment is sufficient.
