Sciatica, Back pain and Refered pain. Physical Therapy.

Lower back and Sciatic pain can be treated by several means. I found that using MET (Muscle Energy Techniques), refered pain can be treated quickly and effectively. MET is a technique that enables a complete assessment of the lower back. It is crucial to identify the specific spinal segments that are causing pressure on the nerve. MET does not use spinal manipulation, but instead, the vertebrae is isolated and brought back into correct alignment with the rest of the spine.

Period Pain and Acupuncture

Period Pain and Acupuncture

Menstrual pain can be a real drag. Not only in the way that it feels, but also as it can take you out of action for several days at a time. Even just to know that a sharp jabbing pain may strike at any time without warning. Menstrual or premenstrual pain can manifest as a dragging sensation, a sharp jab, a constant ache or a twisting sharp stab. It may appear with nausea, back pain, with emotional upset, anger or even rage. Period pain can come before, during or after the

Granulated Herbs are easier to prepare and consume.

Granulated Herbs are easier to prepare and consume.

In my clinic, I have chosen to go for the granulated herb option as I find that there is much better compliance with this form of herbal preparation than with raw herbs.

Acupuncture for Sport Injuries.

Acupuncture, Physical Therapy (Tui Na) and Chinese Herbal medicines are all facets of Traditional Chinese Medicine. They provide fantastic results with sport injuries. The fact that Chinese Medicine has been used to treat soft tissue, joint and bone injuries for over 5,000 years, makes it the oldest form of documented medicine in the world with an enormous amount of experience, depth of knowledge and wisdom that is rarely surpassed. Acupuncture provides very fast pain relief

Meridian names. "What's wrong with my Liver?"

Often in clinic, as I explain meridian pathways to my clients, I may say, "I am going to use a few Liver points on your leg and Gall Bladder points on your opposite leg". Clearly this prompt the question, "what's wrong with my Liver". Well, to explain. Chinese Medicine named the meridians by very different names. It was Western physicians and translators that named the meridians after Western biological organ names. So the Leg JueYin was called Liver and the arm JueYin was na

Acupuncture Balance Method part II

Different body regions mirror other areas. Eg. The foot treats the hand, or inner forearm treating bilateral back pain. The beautiful thing about the Balance Method is the flexibility it offers. If a treatment of lower back pain with inflammation is approached with local acupuncture into sore inflamed tissue, there is a great chance that the pain will get worse before it gets better as the inflamed body part is stimulated. The Balance Method of Acupuncture enables back treatm

Acupuncture -The Balance Method.

So what is the difference between TCM acupuncture and The 'Balance Method'? this is going to be a long discussion, so I am going to write different things about the Balance Method over time. Firstly Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture was part of my original training and it is the norm in University Acupuncture training. In the past two years I have started to employ the Balance Method into my clinical practice and was amazed by the powerful effect that I was havin
