Treatments
Diagnosis is key...
By observing signs and actively listening, I gather valuable information that helps me form an accurate diagnosis.
The first appointment includes filling out a client consultation form which includes medical history and current medication which provides essential key information for consideration.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture generally sedates the nervous system and clients often fall asleep during sessions.
This level of deep relaxation alone is very beneficial, good for reducing stress and anxiety, inflammation and pain, calm nerve agitation and harmonize organ function.
Acupoints allow us to access the hidden energy (Chi) system. I use very thin 0.25mm needles then cover you with a very thin cotton for discretion and often use an infra red heat lamp for pain or comfort.
Tui na medical massage
This type of massage is excellent for relieving muscle tension and imbalance while improving circulation of blood and energy (Chi) to promote healing.
It is performed with a thin cotton cloth covering the body using traditional techniques such as kneading, stretching, rolling and gentle traction to relieve tension. This realigns the body and restores physical well being.
It’s a deeply relaxing and corrective therapy.
Fire cupping
Fire cupping is excellent for relieving tension and improving circulation.
Glass cups of various sizes are placed on selected areas of the body for 10-15 minutes. It works by vacuum gently pulling stagnant blood and toxins to the surface while gently stretching/opening the tissue. This brings fresh nutrient dense blood improving circulation and tissue condition speeding up recovery.
Different techniques may be used for various conditions and situations.
