a bit about the services that may contribute to your care at taranaki acupuncture and chinese medicine
acupuncture
by inserting ultra-fine needles into the body’s channels/meridians, an experienced acupuncturist can stimulate the body’s own healing response
in turn this helps to restore the body's natural balance.
there are also ‘needle-free’ options available if this is preferred;
acupressure, directed-cutaneous microcurrent, laser, ear-seeds, tuning forks & moxibustion for stimulation
the chinese pinyin names of the characters for "acupuncture" are "zhen" and "zhou", which represent both the needle and fire (burning of mugwart), representing modes of treatment from the south of china to the north. a more accurate english translation may actually be
"acumoxa therapy"
