Our acupuncture services
Here at East London Acupuncture Clinic, our experienced practitioners are dedicated to providing the highest quality acupuncture treatments tailored to your unique needs. We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your health concerns and develop a personalised treatment plan that addresses the root caused of your issues.
Our acupuncture sessions involve the gentle insertion of thin, sterile needles at specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of vital energy (Qi). Helping to restore balance within the body, promoting natural healing.
In addition to acupuncture, our practitioners may also incorporate other traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as Chinese herbal medicine and moxibustion to enhance the effectiveness of your treatment plan.
Additional treatments:
Cupping: These treatments involves using a cotton ball that will be soaked in pure alcohol. The cotton is then clamped with a forcep and then lit up with a lighter or match. As a result, this is placed in the cup and removed. We then place this onto the skin. The flames within the cup uses all the oxygen and creates negative pressure, which is then placed onto the body to 'suck' the negative pressure from your skin.
Acupressure: Acupressure is performed using our elbows, hands and thumbs against your skin to revitalise acupressure points. This is done to create a positive and steady effect on your nervous, muscular, immune and circulatory systems.
Gua Sha: This wellness tool will be scrapping through the skin to produce marks on your body. A Gua Sha helps to release any muscle tention you may have and give instant relief to aches and pains. Not only is this used for your physical body but can help with your mental wellness. For example if you have any digestion, colds or for your emotional wellbeing.
Body and joints adjustments: Body adjustment treatment focuses on your entire body to help improve mobility and reduce pain. This treatment is for any:
-
Headaches from your misaligned spine or neck issue
-
Muscle pain
-
Joint pain
-
Chronic back pain
-
Stiffness in the body
-
Leg pain
Ear acupuncture: Ear acupuncture is a traditional chinese medicine that is used to bring relief for a range of conditions. For example it may help with anxiety, depression, loosing weight and pain. This can be treated with a needle or ear seeds that would regulate the acupressure points.
Pregnancy acupuncture: Are you feeling discomfort or having morning sickness during your pregnancy? We can offer pregnancy acupuncture to help relief any low back pain, morning sickness at your early pregnancy stages and during your final pregnancy stage, for your baby delivery to be on time.
Facial acupuncture: With facial acupuncture we use needles on the key points of your face to promote circulation and bringing energy and blood to the face. We can help with different skin conditions such as fine lines, wrinkles or spots. Facial conditions we can cater to:
-
Bell's palsy
-
Muscle ticks
-
Dropping eyelids
-
Face pain
-
Muscle problem
Electrical acupuncture: We use a needle just like our regular acupuncture procedure. A small electrode is placed onto the needle. A small bit of electricity will then run through the electrode and gives a small vibration during the treatment. This activates your acupuncture points and stimulates the body. Using electrical acupuncture works a lot more quickly and more accurate than our regular acupuncture treatment.
