As a Sports Therapist for over 20 years – I have a great interest in helping to treat musculoskeletal injuries with massage and acupuncture. My other specialism is treating women with any fertility and gynaecological issues – especially those that are having difficulties in conceiving naturally and would like to try gentler therapies before trying IVF etc
As with all treatments, a full consultation will be carried out before any acupuncture treatment to ensure the correct diagnosis for yourself – generally a course of treatments will be needed to treat your condition – click here to book online now
Unlike Western Medicine, Acupuncture is a bespoke treatment for each person – for instance; if you and I attended our GP due to migraines, we would both be given the same medication – however, your migraines could be stress related, whereas my migraines could be triggered by food or lights etc. This is where acupuncture treats the person “holistically”, as an acupuncturist we look at the whole picture, not just the symptoms, we look for the root cause and help you rebalance your own body by inserting small acupuncture pins in selected points along the meridian lines. These pins are left in place for around 30mins, during the time you may feel different sensations around the points – this is the Qi or energy coming to the needle. The insertion of the pins themselves is virtually pain free and some clients even fall asleep during an acupuncture session as it is very relaxing.
