TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

Acupuncture | From £55

This ancient Chinese medical practice for the treatment of pain or disease uses the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body to restore the life energy and balance (called Chi).

Disruption of the energy flow results in pain and/or illness, according to practitioners. A point is needled to change the flow of Chi in the channels of the body and rebalance it to bring about healing and health. Acupuncture is virtually painless and the needles are as fine as hairs. We use only sterile, single-use, sealed units.

Cupping | From £55

By using special heated glass jars as an aid to massage, a vacuum is created to improve blood flow and movement of body fluids, stimulate muscles and enhance internal organ function. Cupping can be a stand-alone therapy or form part of an combined treatment comprising, for example, ultrasound, massage, soft tissue release and muscle energy technique.
