HEALTH
SPIRITWORK
Psyche
&
Soul
Acupuncture can help people with anxiety, stress, nervous tension, PTSD and depression. Emotions and thoughts, or, cognitive function, and the state of the 'Shen', or spirit/mind, is an integral part of the diagnostic process and treatment approach in Chinese medicine, embracing the (w)holistic.
As well as helping people with mental and emotional health problems, Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can assist 'well' people, those who are wanting to work through 'blocks' to reaching their full potential, working on the soul level to return to the whole self by transforming trauma.
Helping people with:
​
-
Stress

Anxiety

Mood and Emotions
-
Nervous tension
-
Life path transitions
-
Depression

Sleep quality/Insomnia
Trauma, abuse, withheld emotions or self-expression, extremes of emotion and prolonged periods of stress can all cause actual blocks and imbalances in the quality and harmonious flow of qi, or life-force (soul expression/energy) within human beings.
These blocks and imbalances may be worked on with Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, helping to restore a person to the 'wholeness'.
The emotions are considered an integral part of whole health and wellbeing in Chinese Medicine, and therefore also a major cause and symptom of disease when severely imbalanced.
