Acupuncture ~ with Penny

Penny
     Therapies
Acupuncture has been used for millennia in China, one of the most advanced civilisations of the ancient world.  It is also effective for a wide range of health problems encountered in contemporary life: addictions, headaches, indigestion, stomach ulcers, backache, sciatica and period pains are just a few examples of conditions that respond well.

Acupuncture has recently been endorsed by NICE as effective in the treatment of back pain.  As a drug-free therapy it is safe in pregnancy, and can be used to treat morning sickness or high blood pressure.  It is often helpful in inducing labour if late, and even turning babies with breech or lateral presentation.
 
Although current research indicates that acupuncture may work by affecting the nerves and synapses, thus releasing chemicals called endorphins, the system still used for teaching and practising acupuncture relies on the traditional model deployed in China for centuries.  This is based on the idea that energy or life-force (qi) flows through the body along both deep and superficial pathways.  We can intervene with this life-force by inserting needles and gently manipulating them, to strengthen the bodymind and encourage a better energetic flow.
 
Sessions last from 45 minutes to an hour, and are charged at £40 for the first session, follow up sessions £35.
