Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

Acupuncture

Used for over 2,000 years, acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is widely recognised for its ability to promote natural healing and regulate the body’s energy systems.

This gentle, evidence-informed therapy involves the insertion of ultra-fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body known as acupuncture points, which lie along pathways called meridians. When blockages occur in these meridians, they can lead to symptoms such as pain, hormonal imbalance, or general ill health. Acupuncture helps restore the free flow of energy (Qi), bringing the body back into balance.

What does it feel like?

Acupuncture is generally very well tolerated. Most people feel a mild, dull ache or tingling sensation when the needle is inserted — not sharp pain. Once the needles are in, many patients feel relaxed, even sleepy.

“Many of our patients say their acupuncture sessions are the most relaxing part of their week.”
