Acupuncture

Most peoples' understanding of acupuncture is someone sticking needles into you. Some people will swear by it, while others would not entertain it because it sounds painful. We get told that it is an ancient Chinese system of treatment, but how does it work? To put it simplistically, Acu-points on the body are like tuning points- a bit like tuning a radio or a piano which is out of tune- stimulation of these points will balance the body energetically; this in turn will correct biochemistry of the body and start the structural healing of the body. Treatment also kick starts or reprogrammes the body into healing mode

We at Shining Tree use advance non-invasive acupuncture systems such as Electro- interferential acupuncture and Low level laser acupuncture. Not only are these modalities powerful treatments in their own right, but they also ensure that the treatment is completely non-invasive and painless . So acupuncture by correcting the energetics of the body will optimise biochemistry and heal structure. Once the physical body is healing, patients normally find that they are also healing on an emotional and spiritual level as well. So acupuncture will facilitate healing and support of any problem, Laser treatment is particularly user friendly with children. Acupuncture can only optimise what is in the body, therefore good nutrition is very important for any therapy to be effective.
