Services

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture

This foundational treatment uses fine needles inserted at specific points to balance energy flow and stimulate natural healing. It effectively addresses chronic pain, stress, and systemic imbalances through time-tested techniques. Patients experience improved circulation and nervous system regulation, supporting overall wellness.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

A non-invasive alternative to cosmetic procedures, this treatment enhances skin elasticity and reduces ageing signs by stimulating collagen production. Fine needles target facial meridians to improve muscle tone and skin texture, achieving a natural glow without chemical interventions.

Dry Needling

Specialised needle insertion targets muscle trigger points to alleviate pain and improve mobility. This technique effectively treats sports injuries, chronic tension, and postural imbalances by releasing tight fascia and promoting tissue repair through precise neuromuscular stimulation.

Herbal Medicine

Customised herbal formulations complement acupuncture treatments by addressing internal imbalances. These time-honoured remedies support digestive health, hormonal regulation, and immune function, offering holistic solutions for both acute and chronic conditions through natural plant-based ingredients.

Auricular Acupuncture

This targeted approach stimulates ear acupuncture points to manage stress, addiction, and pain conditions. By activating specific reflex zones, it promotes emotional balance and systemic regulation, often used as part of comprehensive treatment plans for mental health and recovery support.

How many sessions are needed for cosmetic acupuncture?

Optimal results typically require 10-15 sessions with twice-weekly treatments, showing visible improvements by the fifth session according to clinical studies.

What qualifications do your practitioners hold?

I have seen Eric for a number of years with various health ailments. Recently I had food poisoning and the next day after my treatment I noticed a huge improvement in my symptoms. I always find Eric to be very professional and courteous and highly recommend the work he does.
