Acupuncture is a natural treatment involving the insertion of fine, sterile, single-use needles into specific points along energy pathways (meridians) on the body. It maintains a balance in the body and encourage the normal flow of Qi (energy) through the body. It is a holistic treatment which addresses not only the symptoms associated with a condition, but also the underlying cause of the condition. Acupuncture has few side effects, is drug free and can be used in combination with other treatments. It is also relatively painless – patients may just feel a dull, heavy or tingling sensation during treatment. The benefits of acupuncture extend to a wide variety of conditions. These include:

Digestive complaints (nausea, vomiting, irritable bowel syndrome, diarrhoea, constipation)
Mental health issues (anxiety, stress, depression, PTSD)
Women’s health conditions (hormonal imbalances, menstrual pain, irregular menstruation, infertility, PMS, menopausal syndrome)
Respiratory issues (sinusitis, asthma)
Pain (headaches and migraines, muscle aching or tension, post injury/surgery recover, chronic/acute pain – in particular lower back pain, arthritis)
Skin issues (acne, dermatitis)
It can also assist in the relief of insomnia, allergic rhinitis/hayfever, weight loss, and in the maintenance of general well-being.
