ANTI-AGING/FACIAL REJUVENATION
Traditional Chinese Medicine can help you to look younger as well as healthier.
Cosmetic Acupuncture is a specialised treatment
and can be used safely alongside western
nutritional products and cosmetics. The Chinese consider health and beauty to be of paramount importance in living a long and healthy life. The secret is to maintain your health and beauty by regular treatment whether you have any health problems or not.
In an age where everyone is under pressure
to perform and to look their best you can
now have that fresher look you always wanted
without surgery and without all the painful
after effects. You can also have your wrinkles
and fine lines treated and eliminate the puffiness and bags
around the eyes and improve skin tone.
Cosmetic acupuncture leaves you with a glowing
complexion and a more youthful appearance.
How does cosmetic acupuncture work?
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a holistic
medicine which treats you as a complete person
and not just the parts of you that require
treatment. An initial consultation may take
up to two hours so that all your medical
history can be taken into account when treating
you.
This is important in order to create the
smooth flow of Qi and a healthy body so that
all the tissues are nourished. A healthy
body and the smooth flow of Qi will enable
your skin to regenerate and give you a more
youthful appearance.
What are the benefits?
When you have cosmetic acupuncture any other
problems you may have can be dealt with at
the same time. You will find that any health
problems you had will start clearing up.
It may be that your long standing health
problems have been having an effect on your
skin causing it to look puffy, or sallow,
or sagging for example. You may have had
problems with dry skin, or greasy skin causing
spots and pimples, or suffer from fine lines
and wrinkles. Sometimes you may have noticed
that you have dark blue or black circles
under your eyes. Although you may think these
are caused by a late night or lack of sleep
for example, when you have them all the time,
they mean something in Traditional Chinese
Medicine.
Many of the important signs that we look
for in diagnosis can be found on the face.
There is little wonder therefore that the
signs of aging also tell us about the signs
of ill health.
What does the treatment involve?
The first part of the treatment following the consultation will involve treating the underlying problems which have caused the aging process. You will have a few needles in body points according the Chinese medicine syndrome which will assist your body to rejuvenate and repair.
You will then experience a wonderful facial using Chinese cosmetological techniques and cosmetic products which brighten and nourish the skin.
Treatment involves very fine cosmetic needles
inserted just under the skin. For signs of aging which involve the jaw line and sagging of the face electro-acupuncture may also be used. Warming of the needles or acupuncture points on the face may also be applied using moxa.
After the needles are removed you will have a relaxing Chinese facial massage to smooth away the stresses of the day.
It is also essential to address your nutrition
and exercise programme in order to establish
a proper regime to keep you healthy and promote
a balanced metabolism.
You may wish to eliminate your allergies
with NAET (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination
Techniques). Many of your skin problems and
health problems will probably relate to food
intolerances or allergies to substances,
that you may not even be aware of.
Stop smoking treatment may also be helpful.
Is the treatment painful?
Some people may experience slight discomfort the first time but you quickly get used to the sensation. Sometimes there will be a slight reaction around the site
of the needle for a few days after treatment
but this will go away and is nothing to worry
about.
How many treatments will I need?
A full course is 12 appointments, usually once a week, but some people prefer to come twice a week if they have time. Following the full course it is advisable to continue having a treatment once a month for a few months to keep on top of your beauty regime. Chinese medicine is wonderful as a preventative treatment and will not only help to keep your looks but also keep you healthy. (see the photo gallery)
Is the effect permanent?
The effect of cosmetic acupuncture is to
leave you with an improved skin tone, with
an enhanced feeling of well-being, and with
many of your health problems gone. The treatment
also leaves you headache free and releases
tensions.
The fine lines you had before will be considerably
reduced although any deeper wrinkles may
require additional courses or other therapies.
Facial rejuvenation will leave you with a
more youthful appearance and a healthy body
to enable you to delay the signs of aging. It is advisable to consider maintaining your health and beauty by coming for regular treatment on a monthly basis to start with and then extending this to every three months. Beauty comes from within and Chinese medicine can diagnose problems which may cause you a problem in the future before you may even be aware of them yourself.

WEIGHT LOSS TREATMENT
Weight loss is a difficult subject for many
people. There are many reasons why some people
cannot seem to keep the weight off and end
up in a yo-yo situation which goes on for
years. Not only is this a futile waste of
effort it is also extremely bad for your
health long term as it puts pressure on all
the organs and particularly the heart.
Traditional Chinese Medicine can be used
safely alongside western nutrition and exercise
to help you to lose weight.
How does weight loss treatment work?
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a holistic
medicine which treats you as a complete person
and not just the parts of you that require
treatment. An initial consultation will take
up to two hours so that all your medical
history can be taken into account when treating
you.
When you have weight loss treatment any other
problems you have will be treated at the
same time. This is important in order to
create the smooth flow of Qi and a healthy
body so that all the tissues are nourished.
A healthy body and the smooth flow of Qi
will allow your body to stabilise so that
your metabolism works correctly.
What are the benefits?
You will find that any health problems you
had will start to clear up and you will feel
healthier and happier. Traditional Chinese
Medicine also treats the emotions. If you
have been struggling with any problems these
may have been having an effect on your metabolism.
You may also have food intolerances
or allergies
which have been wreaking havoc causing
such
things as bloating and fluid retention,
headaches,
low energy and tiredness for example.
How
many of the following list of items
can you
say yes to?
- IBS and diarrhoea
- Eczema and other skin conditions
- Asthma and wheezing
- Headaches and migraine
- Depression and stress
- Insomnia and tiredness
If you can say yes to any of these then you
are most likely suffering from food intolerance
or allergies.
What does the treatment involve?
Treatment involves an holistic approach:
- Acupuncture. You will receive acupuncture in the first
instance. This will help to stabilise your
metabolism, stop food cravings and address
any other health problems that you may have.
- Allergy Elimination. You may also wish to eliminate your allergies
with NAET (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination
Techniques). NAET addresses the energetic
properties of substances that cause a problem
to the smooth flow of Qi in the meridians.
When we come across a substance that interferes
with the smooth flow of Qi this is called
an adverse reaction or allergic reaction.
The immune systems goes into action to deal
with the invader. When we constantly come
across the same invader toxins can build
up in the body. This eventually causes illness
to occur. NAET works to eliminate this response
by sending a message to the brain to recognise
the allergen as friendly rather than the
enemy.
- Emotional stress release and counselling for emotional problems
You will find that any long standing health
problems you had will start clearing up.
It may be that these problems have had an
effect on your metabolism. Many people who
clear their food allergies start to lose
weight once the effect of those trigger foods
have been eliminated.
How long will it take me to lose weight?
This is a difficult question to answer since
we are all unique and it depends very much
on what the problem is that is causing you
to hold on to your weight.
What usually happens is that after the first
acupuncture treatment you start to feel less
hungry in between meals and some of the food
cravings you had will disappear. For example
you may find that after a few days that bar
of chocolate you used to eat every day is
still on the kitchen side and has not been
touched. This will really shock and surprise
you. It is small changes like this that you
will notice at first rather than a sudden
weight loss. Also you may feel happier and
be sleeping better and feel much more energised.
When you continue with regular treatments
your weight will then start to drop slowly
and regularly as your metabolism stabilises
and you start to eat the right foods for
your body. You will feel like exercising
more and be motivated to keep to the new
regime.
NAET treatment for your allergies will also
help you to lose weight and is highly recommended
as part of the programme.
Will I be able to keep my weight stable?
Yes, provided you have followed the programme,
once you reach your target weight you can
return for a regular check up free of charge.
If there are new problems that have developed
then you should return for more treatments.
