We only use sterilised disposable needles of the highest quality.<\/p>\n

Moxibustion is a gentle form of heat treatment that activates acupuncture points without a needle.<\/p>\n

Each session takes about an hour. Treatment is based on the patient\u2019s case history, symptoms and pulse and tongue diagnosis. Appointments are typically once a week, and thereafter less frequent if further treatment is needed.<\/p>\n

Using the knowledge of their actions with the art of combining these into prescriptions means that each herbal formula is tailored to suit each individual case.<\/p>\n

These prescriptions usually consist of 6-12 herbs which can be taken as an instant drink made from granules or more powerfully as a decoction cooked at home made from raw herbs.<\/p>\n

Prescriptions need to be adjusted from time to time as symptoms change during the course of healing.<\/p>\n
