Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a major component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It is one of the oldest healthcare systems in the world, and remains one of the primary healthcare systems in China.
Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that good health relies on the restoration and maintenance of harmony, balance and order to an individual.
Acupuncture takes a holistic approach to understanding normal function and disease processes, and focuses as much on the prevention of illness as on the treatment. It is an effective, natural and popular form of healthcare worldwide.
During your treatment, your therapist will take a full medical history and discuss your health concerns. They will check your tongue and your pulse, and then insert fine, sterile needles into correlating acupuncture points along the body’s meridians to clear energy blockages and encourage the normal flow of qi.

Myotherapy
Myotherapy is a manual therapy that assesses, treats and manages the soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons and fascia) of the body.
A Myotherapist uses specialised clinical skills to identify dysfunctions of soft tissues, and treats these to restore and maintain normal body function and movement.
An appointment with a Myotherapist will include a detailed history about your condition, then hands on treatment techniques including trigger point therapy, dry needling, TENS, corrective exercises and therapist assisted stretching.
