TRADITIONAL ACUPUNCTURE
Broadly speaking, Acupuncture has 3 primary effects these are; pain relief, reducing inflamation and restoring homeostasis. Homeostasis refers to the bodies ability to regulate its environment and maintain it's internal balance.
If we understand that most disease are characterized by pain, inflammation and disturbance of homeostasis we can begin to understand why acupuncture can be effective for so many conditions.
MASSAGE THERAPY
Select from two styles of massage, remedial or relaxation. Selecting the type of massage you want comes down to how you want to feel after the treatment. Each massage is individual tailored to the clients needs.
A Remedial massage will help reduce pain and increase the range of movement in your body.
A Relaxation massage will leave you feeling deeply relaxed, nurtured and taken care of.
LASER ACUPUNCTURE
ELECTRO-ACUPUNCTURE
Laser Acupuncture offers an effective alternative to using needles.
Low level laser supports the healing process by using direct light that is calibrated to produce positive changes for wound healing, tissue regeneration, inhibiting inflammation and for soothing pain.
Electro-acupuncture is a technique that pairs acupuncture needles together via a electro-acupuncture stimulator, which generates electric pulses. It can be used for a wide array of conditions, especially for musculo-skeleton conditions for the relief of pain.
MOXIBUSTION
In ancient China it was rare to use acupuncture without the simultaneous use of moxibustion, a therapy which involves the burning of Moxa (a species of Chrysanthemum).
Moxa is a small, spongy herb that facilitates healing by stimulating blood circulation and warming the channel.
CUPPING
Cupping is a therapy in which a glass cup is attached to the skin’s surface by suction and dragged along to stimulate the movement of Qi and Blood. The cupping method draws the surface of the skin into the cup. This has the function of warming and promoting the free flow of Qi and Blood in the body this technique is effective in reducing pain and strengthen the immune system.
