Acupuncture treatment is                    


                             relaxing, effective, and painless


Acupuncture works by stimulating the body’s healing responses or immune system. It is a therapy involving the insertion of needles (very thin, fine, sterilized, disposable and single-used) into acupuncture points over the body to stimulate invisible channels ( also called meridians) of Qi(there are 12 main meridians and other 8 more meridians over the body). When the needles are inserted, the sensation is often described as tingling, heavy or dull ache.


During treatment, patients commonly experience a feeling of peace and relaxation.


The efficiency in treating different diseases has been proved through clinical practice of many centuries in China and the whole world.  In recent years, the efficiency of acupuncture treatment has been systematically refined and verified by modern scientific research and accepted by more and more people in west.

'Cosmetic' acupuncture is the newest weapon in the anti-ageing war, but can it really give you a facelift? Or does it just leave you with pins and needles?


News from Daily Mail

Through thousands of years' practice, millions of Chinese people have received and are still getting great benefit from Chinese herbs, which are green, natural and effective. Chinese herbs are from plant parts such as flowers, leaves, stalks, seeds and roots. Every herb is special and each herb has healing properties which are used for specific purposes and perform a particular function.


The TCM doctors prescribe a formula rather than individual herb. Formulas are a group of herbs working together synergistically. A group of herbs is better adapted to deal with a complicated condition. The practitioner prescribes mixed herbs to treat only your condition so it is really special and individual care for heath conditions. The doctor will examine your pulse and your tongue; consult your condition to give you a holistic diagnosis before making a prescription.


The herbal formula form might be a formula of several dried herbs, might be a formula of several herbal powders, might be pills(capsules or tea) formed of herbs.


Hot cupping is a therapy in which a glass cup is placed on the specific energy points to promote the QI to flow smoothly in meridians (energy channels).


After the treatment, comments from the customers:



" I felt much relaxed, and the pain is much better"


" I fell asleep during the treatment, it is so good"


" My muscles are much relaxed, and it's so worth having it"


                   

Ear Candling

Acupressure is most often called ‘Tui Na' or ‘Chinese Medical Massage'. It differs from western massage in that finger and palm pressure is applied using a wide range of techniques. Tui Na balances Yin Yang to reset the energy system.

It can help with muscular problems, stress and sports injuries.

Ear candle helps to revitalize the acupuncture points, stimulate the blood circulation and to free the clogged pores. Ear candle is a delicate and non-invasive method for resolving problems of ear hygiene safely and naturally.


It is helpful for ear ache and hearing improvement.

Reflexology

Reflexology is sometimes known as Zone Therapy as the body is divided into different zones represented by a point in the foot or hand. Nerve endings are imbedded in feet and hands that then travel to the spinal cord and to various parts of the body. Traditional Chinese Medicine theory believes that stimulating these nerve endings helps to improve circulation, active “Qi'' in the body and also promotes relaxation and well-being.


The benefits from reflexology:


1. Help with diagnosis of diseases


The practitioner can tell what part of the body may have something wrong through the reactions from different parts of your feet during reflexology.


2. Preventive health care and relaxation


The practitioner will do reflexology to improve your health condition after the diagnosis, and you will be relaxed very well, so help with the stress too.
