About
Acupuncture stimulates specific points on the body to initiate a natural healing response, with the aim to restore harmony both physically and mentally. With over 2,500 years of clinical trials it is the oldest form of medicine in uninterrupted use. Constantly evolving, it is as relavent today as it was in ancient China.
Oriental Medicine teaches that the physical, emotional and psychological aspects of an individual are interdependent, therefore, during the process of diagnosis all aspects of a patients life are taken into consideration. Each individual is unique and subsequently, the treatment is tailored to address specific needs. The focus of the treatment given is to resolve the root of the problem rather than just alleviate symptoms. Acupuncture can be used remedially to "fix" a problem or prophylactically to maintain health and prevent disease.
