Acupuncture
Acupuncture is effective in treating most ailments presented at a GP’s surgery. It is especially valuable in chronic diseases that orthodox medicine can only alleviate with drugs.
Acupressure
Acupressure is given instead of, or in addition to, acupuncture. Acupressure is essentially acupuncture without needles. Different massage methods are used with strong stimulation to specific acupuncture points on the body.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbs are boiled in a soup, or as a tea, to extract the essence of the herbs, which is then drunk by the patient. However, the herbal capsules make Chinese Herbal Therapy more accessible and convenient for busy, modern lifestyles.
Reflexology
The treatment environment is set up similarly to massage; subdued lighting, soothing music, perhaps a healing fragrance wafts the air.
Tui Na Massage
TuiNa works with the energy system in the body, (Chi), which flows through channels called meridians. By stimulating, or subduing, the energy in the body practitioners help bring the patient’s body back into balance.
Cupping Therapy
The therapist uses a number of glass cups which look like small fish bowls. Each cup is heated with a naked flame. The cup is then quickly applied to the skin. This creates a vacuum.
