I would like to bring Acupuncture to the entire family. To sustain health, we must make better food and lifestyle choices as early on in life as possible. I can help determine health patterns according to Traditional Chinese Medicine and recommend a guideline specific for each person to obtain optimal health. Eastern Medicine emphasizes on prevention and health maintenance via daily awareness. Take charge of your own well-being by nurturing and balancing the body, mind, and spirit. Teach your children preventive healthcare through Chinese Medicine. At least 1 treatment a month or 4 per season is recommended for all.

Acupuncture in Southampton - is it right for me?
Acupuncture is based on the concepts of oriental medicine or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. Southampton acupuncturists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat the many conditions, aches and pains that respond to acupuncture.

Acupuncturists insert very fine acupuncture needles into the body. The purpose of the needles is to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians. The needles do not inject any substance into your body and are so fine as to be virtually impossible to feel. In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.

'Accupuncture' and 'Accupuncturist' are common mis-spellings.
