Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine

Acupuncture is part of an integrated health care system known as Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that dates back at least 5000 years in China and other parts of East Asia. Acupuncture involves the insertion of sterile, single use needles in points in the body to clear energy blockages and promote the normal flow of Qi through the body.

Acupuncture is a safe, effective and drug-free treatment modality that can be used to remedy problems such as headaches, insomnia and gynaecological imbalances by addressing the underlying cause of disease as well as the symptoms.

Modern life can be busy and stressful, making it difficult for us to maintain balance and wellbeing without support.  Slight imbalances in your body’s energy (Qi) can manifest as bigger problems if left alone. Acupuncture can unblock and restore the flow of Qi, help you maintain good health and vitality and prevent the development of future health concerns.
