Acupuncture which is a central part of Traditional and Modern Chinese Medicine has been practiced in China and other Eastern Countries for over 2,500 years.

It is a system of healing which focuses on:-

• improving the overall wellbeing of a patient by strengthening and balancing the energy system
• treating the cause of the condition which is very different to Western Medicine
• preventing the return of symptoms by maintaining strength and balance of the engery systems

Traditional Chinese philosophy views our health as:-

• dependant on the free flow and balanced movement of the body's energy(Qi - pronounced Chee)
• energy flowing through a series of channels beneath the skin
• each channel affecting a different part of the body

Dis-ease of the body can be caused by a number of factors which include:-

• prolonged emotional states such as anxiety, stress, anger, fear or grief
• weather conditions and lingering viruses
• hereditary factors
• infections and poisons
• trauma

In western medicine acupuncture is often used for pain relief.  However, traditionally trained practitioners of Chinese Medicine can use acupuncture to aid a variety of conditions.
