Conditions Treated

 Acupuncture IS NOT Just for Muscle Pain ! 

Most of us don’t realise how pain free and very gentle a relaxing acupuncture session can be. It leaves you feeling light, calm and serene…and fixes the ailments you came in to the clinic to improve. 

Best of all is acupuncture treats SO MUCH MORE than the aches of muscles we usually hear about. Chinese medicine incorporates acupuncture to treat virtually every organ in the body and to recharge strength and energy. With a holistic approach to well-being, it rebalances a person physically, mentally and emotionally. 

Don’t be afraid to try it if it’s new to you, even severely needle-phobic people have come to love acupuncture.

Help your Menopause

Menopause Symptoms?? Relieve them Naturally

For women who are unwilling or unable to undergo Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) ACUPUNCTURE is a natural and safe and highly effective, and even very pleasant, solution to curbing hot flushes and menopausal symptoms in general. 

EVERYTHING FROM MOOD SWINGS, TO RESTLESS LEGS, TO HEADACHES AND HOT SWEATS….ACUPUNCTURE CAN CALM AND NOURISH THE BODY AND REGULATE HORMONES. 

 Read the evidence….. 

Traditional Chinese acupuncture may be useful in reducing the severity of hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause, a new study suggests. 

Researchers in Turkey conducted experiments with 53 postmenopausal women. Half of them received traditional acupuncture treatment. The rest were treated with “sham” acupuncture needles that were blunted and did not penetrate the skin. 

A five-point scale was used to measure the severity of hot flashes, vaginal dryness, urinary symptoms, mood swings, and other symptoms in the postmenopausal women. 

Twenty-seven women received traditional Chinese acupuncture twice a week for 10 sessions from an experienced and licensed acupuncturist. Those in the comparison group were treated with shams needles at the same acupuncture points. 

Levels of estrogen and other hormones were measured before the study and after the first and last acupuncture sessions in both those receiving real and sham treatments. 

Measuring Menopause Symptoms

The women who received traditional acupuncture had significantly lower scores on the scale of menopausal symptoms after 10 weeks, compared to those in the sham treatment group. 

Researchers also found that the severity of hot flashes and psychological symptoms decreased significantly in the traditional acupuncture group after 10 weeks compared to the sham acupuncture group. 

The severity of urogenital symptoms -- such as vaginal dryness and urinary symptoms -- was not significantly different in the traditional acupuncture group than in the sham acupuncture group after 10 weeks. 

Oestrogen amounts were significantly higher, while luteinizing hormone levels were significantly lower in the group that received traditional acupuncture compared to the sham acupuncture group after 10 weeks. Acupuncture naturally boosts endorphins and therefore may stabilise the temperature control system in the body.
