FAQ’s

What Conditions Can Acupuncture Help?

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles through your skin at strategic points on your body. A key component of traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is most commonly used to treat pain. Increasingly, it is being used for overall wellness, including stress management.

Traditional Chinese medicine explains acupuncture as a technique for balancing the flow of energy or life force — known as chi or qi (chee) — believed to flow through pathways (meridians) in your body. By inserting needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture practitioners believe that your energy flow will re-balance.

In contrast, many Western practitioners view the acupuncture points as places to stimulate nerves, muscles and connective tissue. Some believe that this stimulation boosts your body’s natural painkillers.

Performed by a skilled practitioner, acupuncture can be a safe and effective treatment for a range of disorders. Acupuncture is used to assist in the treatment of pain or health conditions, that may include:

  • low back pain
  • neck pain
  • osteoarthritis
  • knee pain
  • headache and migraine
  • high and low blood pressure
  • chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting
  • some gastric conditions, including peptic ulcer
  • painful periods
  • dysentery
  • allergic rhinitis
  • facial pain
  • morning sickness
  • rheumatoid arthritis
  • sprains
  • tennis elbow
  • sciatica
  • dental pain
  • reducing the risk of stroke
  • inducing labor

What To Expect During Your Acupuncture Treatment

During the first acupuncture Gold Coast session, the acupuncturist will assess your general health. As each treatment is unique to the individual, this will facilitate the most effective treatment for each.

The investigative process will include questions relating to your current symptoms, past treatments, patient and family medical history, diet, digestive system, sleeping patterns and emotional health.

The pulse on both wrists will be taken to determine how energies are flowing in the body. As part of the diagnosis, the acupuncturist will assess the structure, colour and coating of your tongue.

During this comprehensive evaluation, the practitioner will observe your emotions, voice and self-presentation. This will further aid in the diagnosis and development of a treatment that will assist in harmonising your overall energy.

Specific acupuncture points will be chosen and the practitioner begins treatment. The length of the first session may vary to your needs. Subsequent treatments will last approximately one hour. Dietary and other recommendations will be discussed at appropriate times throughout the treatment process.

Confidential discussion of health history

In your first consultation, I would usually start by asking about your main complaint. I would then ask you a series of questions about other symptoms that you may or may not have. These would be symptoms that I think may be related in some way to your main complaint.

During this process, I would also ask you about any major illness that you’ve had throughout your life. This process, together with my observations about your complexion, general manner and appearance, would enable me to start forming my diagnosis.

    Acupuncturist

    My passion for this medicine began years ago when I was suffering from chronic pain for a very long time. After experiencing acupuncture my sleepless nights transformed into peaceful rest.
    Being a Mum of three, I understand how difficult and sometimes complicated looking after your own health can be and I am dedicated to help others to find energy and balance to a busy life. What Eastern Medicine offers is a philosophy that empowers us, it teaches us to listen to emotions, to pay attention to the changes in our body and cultivates our mind.
    The body has this amazing ability to heal, always seeking for the perfect balance; acupuncture acts as a guide to help bring the body back to homeostasis. I am passionate about assisting others find the keys to unlock their fullest potential through reconnection with their body and mind.
