ACUPUNCTURE

Clinically Grounded, Individualised Care for Balance and Recovery

 

WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture is a key element of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), a medical system refined over thousands of years and now integrated into modern healthcare settings worldwide.
It involves the precise placement of ultra-fine, sterile needles along pathways known as meridians to regulate the body’s vital energy or Qi.

In practice, acupuncture promotes circulation, reduces inflammation, eases pain, and supports the body’s natural healing processes. Each treatment plan is individual — designed to restore balance between physical, emotional, and energetic aspects of health.

Each herbal formula is an elegant blend of roots, barks, flowers, and minerals chosen for your unique presentation. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all remedies, I prescribe a carefully personalised formula that addresses both the symptoms and the underlying causes of imbalance — supporting your body to recover and thrive.

WHAT CAN ACUPUNCTURE HELP WITH?

Acupuncture is well known for easing pain, but its scope is far broader. It’s used both to treat illness and to prevent it — supporting the body in returning to its natural state of balance.

It may help with:

  • Chronic and acute pain – back, neck, shoulders, hips, knees
  • Musculoskeletal conditions and injury recovery
  • Digestive issues – IBS, reflux, bloating
  • Women's health – menstrual irregularities, fertility, menopause
  • Stress, anxiety, and low mood
  • Fatigue and sleep disturbance
  • Respiratory symptoms – cough, allergies, sinusitis
  • Headaches and migraines

Acupuncture also works beautifully alongside Chinese herbal medicine, reinforcing results between in-person treatments.

A Natural and Evidence-Informed Practice

Your treatment draws on both the traditional wisdom of Chinese medicine and the insights of contemporary research. Acupuncture is recognised by the World Health Organization and widely practised in hospitals throughout Asia and increasingly in integrated Western clinics.

It’s a safe, holistic therapy that supports your body’s own capacity to heal, rebalance, and maintain wellbeing.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Every session begins with a detailed consultation exploring your health history, symptoms, and lifestyle. I’ll use classical Chinese diagnostic methods, such as tongue and pulse analysis, to understand the underlying patterns at play.

Needles are inserted gently and strategically to rebalance the flow of Qi. You may feel a warm, pulsing, or gently releasing sensation — most people find treatments deeply relaxing.

Acupuncture sessions may also include additional therapies when appropriate:

  • Moxibustion – using warming moxa (mugwort) to nourish Yang, boost circulation, and relieve pain.
  • Gua Sha – a gentle scraping technique to release tension, move stagnation, and improve microcirculation.
  • Cupping – applying suction cups to loosen tight muscles, detoxify, and encourage Qi and blood flow.

These therapies can be combined into your treatment to enhance healing and speed recovery.
