The Consultation:

During your first appointment, your practitioner will discuss with you your medical history so as to develop a better understanding of your condition and create a personalized treatment plan.

Chinese Medicine has a different world-view to orthodox western medicine, and is a holistic medicine (characterized by the treatment of the whole person, taking into account mental and social factors, rather than just the symptoms of a disease). Some of the concepts might sound un-familiar, but your practitioner will explain the diagnosis clearly, in a way which you can easily understand the concepts.  

Each treatment plan is highly personalized and specific to you, your practitioner will develop and outline a treatment plan which works with you within your budget.  

The Treatment:

Here at Happy Body Acupuncture, we make your healing our highest priority.  We provide a soothing and serene environment, promoting relaxation.  

Acupuncture needles are entirely different from the usual medical needles used to take blood or injections: Instead, they are an incredibly fine and often patients don't feel them.

and effective treatment for a number of conditions. Acupuncture is a safe and effective form of treatment for many conditions and ailments, and works well along-side Western Medical practices.  It compliments treatments such as Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, Osteopathy, and many more.
