Treatment
Report
In Oriental medicine, the mind and body is thought of as a whole rather than as separate systems within the body. Oriental medicine recognises an interconnectivity throughout the body involving meridians which act as pathways for the flow of energy, or 'Ki'. This means that whatever happens to one part of the body can affect other parts of the body.
Moxibustion
Report
Moxa treatment uses a plant called mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) to therapeutically stimulate your body with heat. It is has been found to produce profound changes in blood chemistry and have numerous healing properties. Moxa treatments can vary in the type of Moxa used, the amount and its placement.
Acupuncture
Report
Classical Japanese Acupuncture uses needles that are very fine and sit close to the skin's surface so people typically don't feel any pain during a treatment. You may feel subtle sensations at the location of the needle or along your meridians. One of the differences to Chinese Acupuncture, a different form of acupuncture, is that they use thicker needles and deeper insertions than Classical Japanese Acupuncture.
Conditions Treated
Report
What can acupuncture treat? The emphasis of Classical Japanese Acupuncture is on treating the person and not the symptoms or ailments. The aim is to find and treat the root cause of your condition and to treat you as a unique individual. Acupuncture is traditionally used to strengthen immunity and build up a person's ability to deal with illness by developing a tolerance or resistance.
What’s that smell in the clinic
Report
Moxibustion is the therapeutic practice of burning Moxa, a tinder made from the dried leaves of Artemisia vulgaris, commonly known as mugwort. It is safely lit on or near the skin to aid treatment. The history of this heat therapy can be traced back to people living in cold climates who used burning Moxa to warm up painful areas.
