Five Element acupuncture is an ancient system of medicine first recorded in China over 2,000 years ago. It works on the principle that when our qi (roughly translated as ‘life force’) is in balance, we are in prime health and able to maintain that state ourselves. Conversely, when our qi or energy is out of balance, illness may arise.
In our modern life, we may often experience high levels of stress, and this can manifest as physical, mental or emotional symptoms. Sometimes we are unaware of what the cause of our ailments is but can feel out of sorts or not ourselves. Acupuncture can redress the imbalance by treating the cause rather than the symptoms, thus allowing us to cope with whatever comes our way with equanimity.
I recommend a series of five appointments, ideally one per week consecutively, and by the end, you should notice a marked difference in how you feel. After this, and depending on your progress, appointments can be spread out more. With you, I work towards achieving a maintenance programme whereby you have treatments five times per year. The time this takes to reach varies from person to person depending on the severity of what they are being treated for. It is usual for patients to experience a greater feeling of wellbeing after undertaking acupuncture.
