Acupuncture and Complementary medicine helps you back onto your feet
We believe in addressing and treating your health holistically and naturally, thus enabling the body to not just be healed, but also be naturally strong, self-sustaining and balanced.

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese practice that involves puncturing the skin with hair-thin needles at acupuncture points, to enhance the flow of Qi. Acupuncture is used to balance and keep the normal flow of energy unblocked, and restore health to the body and mind. Traditional Chinese medicine practices (e.g. acupuncture, herbs, diet, massage, cupping, moxibustion, exercises, etc.) all are intended to improve the flow of Qi.
In Chinese Medicine, Winter is the season of hibernation and conservation. Plants shed their leaves, their sap descends and they stay in a dormant state until the Spring. Animals retreat into their dens for months at a time. Our bodies are also in tune with this seasonal cycle. We want to sleep longer, crave for warm hearty food and want to stay home more in the winter. This is perfectly natural. Go with the flow of nature - the sun rises late and sets early - adjust your sleeping patterns accordingly and rest more during the winter. Fresh fruits are not as readily available in the winter - this is nature's way of giving us a hint. Eating foods with a "cold" nature (raw foods, salads, iced drinks) impairs the immune and digestive system as it works harder to warm the body. Grains, beans and meat (foods easily stored in the winter) are recommended. Protect your body against the cold by bundling up and wearing a scarf.
