WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM A TREATMENT?
(Or 'Why You Don't Need To Be Afraid Of Needles!')
Acupuncture can give you immediate pain relief in a single session (the degree depends upon the severity of your condition) and can address deeper systemic problems over a course of treatments. Acupuncture needles are extremely fine and are often not felt at all when they are inserted. If they are felt, it is usually only a slight twinge or dull ache which very quickly fades. During an Acupuncture treatment, most people sink into a deep, relaxed state, and afterwards feel very refreshed and clear-headed.
Naturopathy will give you the knowledge you need to successfully alter your diet and lifestyle to help your body to heal itself. You may also be given a herbal formula tailored to your condition and/or vitamins and minerals if your diet is lacking. Scott is also an experienced massage therapist and is trained in Shiatsu, Myo-Facial, Chinese, Trigger Point, Sports and Deep Tissue massage.
SO HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE WORK?
Acupuncture treats the body as an 'energy system' and is based on making sure that the energy flows throughout the body are strong, balanced and clear. Chinese medicine calls this energy 'chi' or 'qi' (pronounced "chee") - the vital energy behind all living things. When our Qi becomes unbalanced or blocked, it manifests as 'dis-ease' which can range from mild to chronic depending on the severity of the blockage. Through stimulation of specific points along the energy channels ('meridians') of the body via the insertion of very fine needles, the Qi is restored to its ideal state, thus preventing disease and creating health and wellbeing.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) lists over 40 conditions that can be treated by Acupuncture, ranging across most systems of the body. Acupuncture can also enhance the potency of other therapies, thereby increasing the rate of recovery.
Regular fortnightly sessions are an excellent way to maintain balance in your body and mind so that you stay aligned and feeling great.
SO HOW DOES NATUROPATHY WORK?
Naturopathy aims to maximise the body's own healing abilities by using the natural healing properties of certain plants, together with the science of nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. Naturopathy aims to address the cause of illness rather than simply fix the symptoms, and prefers to use non-invasive treatments with no toxic side-effects. (Sometimes there will be side-effects from nutritional and herbal remedies, however these are usually due to the cleansing action of the remedies and they are temporary. These kinds of side-effects are vastly different to the side-effects of many pharmaceutical drugs, which are often toxic, long-term and debilitating, sometimes requiring further medication to alleviate.)
Naturopathy is particularly good for chronic conditions such as skin and digestive problems (for example, candida and irritable bowel syndrome). It is also highly useful for maintaining health in today's toxic and stressful environment due to the range of herbs available for cleansing the blood and liver and nourishing the nervous system. An emphasis on prevention and minimal side-effects means that it's also an excellent therapy for children.
