What can it do for me?

Acupuncture aims at treating the patient rather than the symptoms so the acupuncturist looks at the patient as a whole, finds the cause of the illness and the imbalance of energy causing it. The imbalance is corrected so restoring health to the entire body rather than just removing the symptoms.The principal aim of acupuncture treatment is to recover the equilibrium between the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the individual. It can help with a very wide range of conditions

• Anxiety
• Arthritis/ Joint pain
• Asthma
• Back pain
• Depression
• Digestive problems
• Fatigue
• Gynaecological problems
• Headaches/ Migraines
• Infertility
• Insomnia
• Menopausal symptoms
• Morning sickness
• Skin conditions
• Sports injuries
• Stress

The wider benefits

Acupuncture can also treat less well-defined complaints, where a person feels 'not right' in some sense, experiencing physical, mental or emotional distress without specific 'symptoms.'

People receiving acupuncture frequently report benefits beyond their original complaint - often feeling better in themselves and more able to face the world and the challenges of work, family or relationships.
