Acupuncture

Acupuncture is one of the treatments which form part of Traditional Oriental Medicine. It involves the insertion of very fine needs into certain locations to stimulate the bodies healing energy or “Qi”.

Acupuncture is recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as having demonstrable benefit for a wide range of conditions including: Asthma, Migraine, Nausea, Indigestion, Constipation, IBS, Obesity, Neck and Shoulder/ Back/ Knee pain, Arthritis, Menstrual problems and Insomnia to name a few. It is also recognised to be helpful for infertility and can support and enhance success rates for IVF treatments.

Treatment times are approximately 45mins –1hr and depending on the individual treatment plan acupuncture may be complemented with a combination of moxibustion (warming technique), or massage and cupping (vacuum therapy to aid blood circulation)). Gentle stretching and strengthening exercises may also be advised for muscular skeletal complaints.

Reflexology

Reflexology works by the application of pressure to specific reflex points located on the foot.

Reflexology encourages healing through restoring in-balances in the body and can be useful for a wide range of conditions as well as being great for general stress relief and relaxation.

Reflexology is also a fantastic support treatment during pregnancy.
