Questions
What conditions can acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture effectively addresses pain conditions like arthritis, migraines, and back pain, plus digestive issues, stress, and women's health concerns. The WHO recognises its benefits for numerous conditions.
How does traditional acupuncture work?
By stimulating specific points, acupuncture promotes Qi flow and triggers natural healing responses through hormonal and neurological pathways, restoring physical and emotional balance.
Is your acupuncture different from other clinics?
Our TCM-trained practitioners use comprehensive diagnostic assessments including pulse and tongue analysis to create tailored treatment plans combining needling, moxibustion and lifestyle advice.
What should I expect during treatment?
First visits include detailed health assessment followed by individualised acupuncture. Needle retention typically lasts 20-30 minutes while you relax on comfortable couches with optional heat therapy.
Is acupuncture safe?
When performed by qualified practitioners using sterile disposable needles, acupuncture is extremely safe. Our practitioners maintain professional indemnity insurance and follow strict hygiene protocols.
