Treatments we offer

Acupuncture

Acupuncture treats the human body as a whole that involves several "systems of function" that are in many cases associated with (but not identified on a one-to-one basis with) physical organs. Some systems of function, such as the "triple heater" (San Jiao, also called the "triple burner") have no corresponding physical organ. Disease is understood as a loss of homeostasis among the several systems of function, and treatment of disease is attempted by modifying the activity of one or more systems of function through the activity of needles, pressure, heat, etc. on sensitive parts of the body of small volume traditionally called "acupuncture points" in English, or "xue" (穴, cavities) in Chinese. This is referred to as treating "patterns of disharmony".
It is essential that such treatment is administered by a highly experienced practitioner in order to provide beneficial results. I qualified to the highest level and am a member of the China Association of Acupuncture.

Tui Na

The term tuina translates into "push-grasp" or "poke-pinch" in Chinese. Physically, it is a series of pressing, tapping, and kneading with palms, fingertips, knuckles or implements that are said to remove blockages along the meridians of the body and stimulates the flow of qi and blood to promote healing, similar to principles of acupuncture, moxibustion, and acupressure

Manipulation

Manipulation is the skilled passive movement of a joint that is applied at varying speeds and amplitudes, including a small-amplitude/high velocity therapeutic movement or thrust. It can also refer to the process of bringing fragments of fractured bone or displaced joints into normal anatomical alignment

Massage

Massage is the practice of applying structured pressure, tension, motion, or vibration — manually or with mechanical aids — to the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments, joints and lymphatic vessels, to achieve a beneficial response. A form of therapy, massage can be applied to parts of the body or successively to the whole body, to heal injury, relieve psychological stress, manage pain, and improve circulation

Sports Medicine

If you participate in a sport, a wide variety of injuries may be incurred. Sports medicine's function is not only curative and rehabilitative, but also (and possibly most importantly) preventative. Sports related injuries can be treated using techniques from acupuncture to massage.

Chinese Physiotherapy

Incorporating Tui Na and manipulation into physiotherapy treatment facilitates the treatment of conditions such as:

  • back and neck pain
  • spinal and joint conditions, such as arthritis
  • heart and lung conditions
  • sport-related injuries
  • and more...
