Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

With  Ms Charlie Foust & Melinda Webb 

Why Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a technique that uses ultra-fine needles placed at specific points along the body, allowing energy (Qi) to flow through channels, influencing the body’s natural healing processes. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been used for thousands of years to heal the body to create change.

Treatments may combine acupuncture with other traditional healing methods like moxibustion, for warming the body, removing stagnation and better known for aiding with natural labour induction. Cupping is also used, as an adjunct or alone as a form of therapy, to stimulate blood flow, remove toxins and reduce muscle tension.

Fertility

Acupuncture can assist fertility in both men and women by improving blood flow to reproductive organs, balancing hormones, reducing stress, and increasing the chances of natural conception. Our acupuncturists work with the whole person and are available to assist with IVF transfer cycles

Natural Labour Preparation

Acupuncture and moxibustion treatments help the mindbody prepare for labour. From week 36 we work with clients to naturally relax into labour, removing the anxiety that can be related to being induced. Combining the two therapies relaxes the body, creating calm. The perfect way to relax into labour.

Moxibustion

Also known as Moxa can be used in conjunction with acupuncture. A simple warming technique that aids with healing the body. Known for its use in turning a malpositioned baby or for moving into labour. In the clinic, we provide you with Moxa to take home if required to continue treatment.

Herbal medicine
