Acupuncture

In Chinese medical theory the body is composed of meridians or channels where energy, also known as qi, flows. When this energy becomes blocked, pain and disease occur. Needling acupuncture points along these channels activates the flow of energy which stimulates healing.


In western medical theory the insertion of needles in particular acupuncture points stimulates the release of endorphins and opiods, which are natural pain killers. Acupuncture also causes vasodilation (increased blood flow) and stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system (allows the body to achieve deep relaxation). Modern research has shown that acupuncture points are located in areas of high concentrations of fine blood vessels, sensory fibres, fine lymphatic ducts and mast cells (body's immune response).

Cupping

Cupping is a therapy in which glass cups are applied to the skin along meridians and muscle groups. A vacuum is created inside the cups which creates suction. This suction draws up underlying tissues instantly relieving muscle tension and pain. This negative pressure not only loosens muscles but also increases blood circulation to the area and sedates the sympathetic nervous system.

Cupping can therefore be used for not only relieving muscular pain, but conditions such as high blood pressure, anxiety and chronic stress. This treatment is also valuable for respiratory conditions such as asthma, bronchitis and tuberculosis as it clears congestion and blockages within the lungs.

More recently cupping has been used for weight loss, reducing cellulite and stretch marks as it improves blood circulation and draws toxins out of the body.

Massage

Chinese massage, also referred to as tuina, is very similar to regular massage in that it relaxes muscle tissue, tendons and ligaments. Tuina uses rhythmic compressions along meridians of the body to activate energy flow and harmonize yin and yang. Techniques include pressing and holding, kneading and tapping. Tuina is also used to manipulate and lubricate joints, to relieve acute and chronic pain, as well as, improve skin tone, relieve numbness and relax the nervous system.

Micro-needling

Micro-needling is a cosmetic dermatological procedure that involves pricking the skin with very small sterile needles. The small wounds created when the needles puncture the skin initiate the body's healing response and activate fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin. For this reason is also known as collagen induction therapy.

Micro-needling is great for reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. Best results are seen after 4-6 sessions. The procedure is minimally invasive but does require some downtime. See my blog for more detailed information on what to expect during and following a treatment.

Nano-needling

Nano-needling is a non invasive cosmetic procedure that does not involve needles but small stainless "nano" tips coated in silicone. These tips do not penetrate the skin but create spaces between the cells of the skin allowing increased absorption of topical serums. The treatment exfoliates the skin created a smoother more even texture and an instant glow.
