Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a practice of TCM and involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the skin, located at various locations around the body. The points chosen are specific to the receiver and the underlying pattern being treated. Acu-points are found along meridians (channels of vital energy flow) throughout the body. The meridians are all interconnected and also connect our external to our internal organs, joints, sinews, tendons etc. Acupuncture works to re-establish flow and balance within the body, removing blockages, tonifying deficiencies and reducing excess’ to assist the receiver’s overall state of well-being.

Reiki/Universal Healing + Guidance
Reiki is a form of energetic healing that works with the bodies main energy centres (chakra’s) and the aura.
The body’s chakras process energetic vibrations between the outer world and the physical body and soul. When balanced, energy can flow freely through the chakras, harmonising the mind, body and spirit. When chakras are blocked, imbalances can cause mental, physical, emotional and spiritual ailments.
During a reiki session, universal source qi/energy is channeled via the practitioner to the receiver using both hands on/hands off techniques. The energy is specific to the receiver and always works to bring the body back into balance by resolving blockages, clearing away negativity and establishing free flow of energy throughout the chakra and subtle energy bodies. Reiki is an extremely relaxing therapy and may provide the receiver with a sense of clarity, calm and an overall ‘light’ feeling.
Intuitive guidance/information may be offered to the receive throughout these sessions if the receiver is open.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
In a cosmetic acupuncture session, fine needles are placed along the face and into facial muscles to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and bags under the eyes. The insertion of the needles stimulates the release of collagen and encourages circulation of blood and Qi to the area, which may create a more plump, bright and fresh appearance to the skin. Body support points may also be incorporated to treat skin concerns as well as facial Gua Sha, Tui Na (Massage), and other techniques tailored individually and discussed prior to treatment.

Cupping
Cupping sessions can be booked as stand-along or cupping may be included within an acupuncture session.
Cupping involves the use glass cups which suction the skin and muscle inwards to move stagnant blood and draw toxins from the tissue and muscles. It activates the flow of Qi and Blood through the sinew channels (Muscles) to assist in treatment pain, stiffness, and many other health issues.
Cupping may create circular marks on the skin that range from pale pink to dark purple, this provides us with an explanation of underlying pathology. Although marks can sometimes look quite dark, cupping should never be painful, your practitioner will ensure you are comfortable and relaxed throughout the treatment.
