East meets west in Putney acupuncture clinic
It’s one thing to read that acupuncture can successfully treat back pain, insomnia, anxiety, sports injuries, migraine, digestive problems or fertility issues and IVF…and yet another to find someone with whom you feel comfortable enough to give it a go.
With this in mind Putney resident Jane Smith has opened Equilibrium Acupuncture in a light-filled and inviting treatment room above the Token Yard Club on Felsham Road, just off Putney High Street.
Jane is an Oxford graduate and qualified acupuncturist who is also trained in Chinese therapeutic massage, or tuina, which uses the principles of acupuncture but is needle-free. “I’m interested in treating the whole person- so I really take time to understand my patients’ problems.” says Jane. “I use a range of therapies, including massage and cupping, so that even people who don’t like the idea of needles can experience the benefits of Chinese medicine.”
Acupuncture uses ultra-fine, disposable needles inserted painlessly into specific points in the body. In ancient China where it originated, acupuncture’s efficacy was explained by the concept of balancing the body’s energy, or qi (pronounced chee). Western research has demonstrated that acupuncture works by stimulating the blood vessels, nervous system and immune system to help the body heal itself.
“Even the most nervous patients are surprised at how pleasant the treatment is,” Jane says, “and by the overall sense of relaxation and wellbeing they feel afterwards. ”
Her website will tell you exactly what to expect at your first treatment. It also lists the conditions acupuncture can treat along with the research showing exactly how acupuncture can help.
Equilibrium Acupuncture also offers rejuvenating facial acupuncture for a safe and natural way to improve your complexion without the injection of any foreign substances into your skin. To discuss how cosmetic acupuncture, tuina massage or acupuncture can help you, Jane offers free telephone consultations which can be arranged by calling 07733 001098.
Gift vouchers are available online here if you would like to give your friends or loved ones the gift of wellbeing.
