Electro-acupuncture

Electro-acupuncture is a relatively new concept. The diagnosis and needling are done as normal according to traditional means, and one or two pairs of needles are connected by wires to a machine that gently stimulates the points. The idea of being 'wired up' is not desirable to some people, and we will always carefully explain what we are doing and respect your wishes. The treatment is completely safe and the results can be impressive.

Probes and Rollers

Sometimes it is preferable not to use needles, for example with the needle-phobic or very young children. Instead, we can use massage and probes or rollers. Children love these as they are like toys, and they may try it themselves! Parents can also be easily taught how to continue the massage at home where appropriate and we can advise you on this.
