Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine, Oxfordshire

An insight into the origin of disease/imbalance on an emotional, physical and mental level, while restoring balance and influencing changes in the body and mind

Acupuncture

Chinese Herbal Medicine (the combination of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine) - is a powerful and ancient medical system which not only provides clear insight into the origin of disease/imbalance on an emotional, physical and mental level, but also provides effective ways to restore balance. 

The Traditional Chinese medical system is based on the vital “energy” or qi which permeates the universe.  This energy is non tangible, but can be felt. The body and mind are part of this energetic system that is always in a state of flux, rebalancing itself to maintain harmony and health.  However, when the body or mind is overpowered by strong external or internal forces then its self harmonising mechanism can weaken or break down, and manifests in our bodies as pain or disease or emotional stresses.  

Traditional Chinese medicine attempts to restore balance to the body and mind by diagnosing the pattern of disharmony in the qi. It uses acupuncture, herbs, diet and lifestyle changes to restore balance and health.

Acupuncture
The method of acupuncture uses fine stainless steel single use sterile needles. Most people find the sensation to be reasonably comfortable and can sometimes instantly feel calmer or energised. The needles are inserted gently into points along a merdian or energy pathway which has access to internal organs to influence changes in the body and mind.
