How does it work?
To maintain good health, it is important for energy and blood flow to circulate in a continuous manner.  The energy pathways are called meridians and Traditional Acupuncture
is based on these meridians corresponding to the body's tissues and organs.

There are over 500 acupuncture points in the body. By gently stimulating specific points with needles the quality and quantity of energy can be normalised. Cupping and Massage may be part of your treatment.  View info on cupping therapy here.  Our Acupuncturists also specialise in Moxibustion and can offer Traditional Chinese Herbal Supplements, in conjunction with treatments.

What is Cosmetic Acupuncture?
A natural, non-surgical alternative to western cosmetic surgery. Drawn on ancient Chinese medicine, cosmetic acupuncture is designed to restore, rejuvenate and relax. Small acupuncture needles are placed just under the skin's surface to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.

The results of cosmetic acupuncture reflect not only a change in external appearance, but also total body wellness. Specifically you may notice improvement in the following areas:

• More radiant skin
• Reduction of fine lines
• Smoothing of deep lines
• Fading of age spots
• More toned muscles
• Reduction of sagginess
• Lifting of droopy eyelids
• Minimization of double chins
• Enhanced overall appearance and health
