Traditional Acupuncture

Supporting the body's natural ability to regulate, recover and restore balance

Intro

Traditional acupuncture is a treatment method within Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It supports the body's natural ability to regulate, recover and restore balance — and can be helpful for many different health concerns.

As a qualified Chinese medicine practitioner, I use pattern-based diagnosis and personalised treatment.
I work with a wide range of conditions, and pain-related issues are one of my main areas of focus.

Traditional acupuncture introduction

What happens in a session (60 minutes)

A typical session lasts 60 minutes and follows a clear structure:

1
Consultation

We begin with a short conversation about your main concern and overall health.

2
Assessment

This includes tongue observation and pulse diagnosis, and may also involve palpation when necessary.

3
Acupuncture treatment

Needles are applied based on your individual pattern and symptoms.

4
Resting time (about 20 minutes)

Needles are usually retained for around 20 minutes, allowing the body to settle and respond.

5
Additional techniques (when needed)

Depending on your situation, treatment may also include cupping, tuina massage, or gua sha.
