ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is the treatment of physical and emotional disease by influencing points on meridians, or “lines on energy”, which interconnect across the body surface. It affects the
physiological functioning of the body by the insertion of fine needles into a few specific points around the body. With a history of almost 3000 years it is used extensively today to treat millions of people around the world for acute or chronic health disorders, ranging from colds and flus to neck and back problems to insomnia, chronic fatigue and emotional conditions. It can also be used for health enhancement, to assist in sports performance, addiction withdrawal, and to improve your sense of well-being and vitality.
There are many different styles of acupuncture used today although the most common and widely used is known as TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine).

JAPANESE ACUPUNCTURE
Japanese Acupuncture is an extremely gentle but a highly effective form of treatment, using very fine needles, which are inserted very shallowly or not inserted at all. It always maintains absolute comfort for the client, and therefore is a great technique for treating children and for individuals who don’t like the sensation associated with needling in other forms of acupuncture.

FACIAL ACUPUNCTURE
Facial acupuncture treats the face as an extension of both the emotions and the energy channels of the body – which flow from the soles of the feet to the crown of the head. It is deeply relaxing and is designed to treat underlying constitutional imbalances as well as the face itself.

TOYOHARI
Toyohari is a method of acupuncture developed in Japan. It is an extremely gentle yet powerful treatment. It was founded by Kodo Fukushima, a well known blind acupuncturist (many acupuncturists are blind in Japan), who went on to found the Toyohari Association in Japan just over 40 years ago. The theory of Toyohari is rooted in the Chinese classical texts of acupuncture, which are over 2000 years old. The practice however uses innovative new techniques, including the use of needles made of different metals such as silver, gold, copper and zinc. Another remarkable development is the technique of “contact needling”, where a silver needle or probe is held on or over the skin, without penetrating it. This technique is very helpful for treating children and for individuals who don’t like the sensation associated with needling in other forms of acupuncture.
