High Street Natural Health, Fremantle, WA

Acupuncture is a therapy that has been used for thousands of years that works by initiating your natural health responses. Treatment involves fine, sterile needles inserted in the skin at specific 'acupoints' along energy mridians, a network of invisible channels through the body. It works to clear energy blockages and encourage the normal flow of Qi through the body, so the body's balance can be restored and the illness resolved.

Acupuncture is an effective, natural and increasingly popular form of healthcare that is well recognised and used by many people, from diverse backgrounds, of all ages, throughout the world. Acupuncture takes a hollistic approach to understanding normal function and disease processes- it focuses as much on prevention of an illness as on the treatment.

Energy flow can be disrupted in many ways; emotional upset, physical injury, poor diet or overwork are all common examples. By examining the underlying cause and how it has affected your body, the most appropriate treatment for you can be chosen. Acupuncture also includes techniques including cupping and acupressure.
