    Pain and ill health is bought about by blockages in Qi (energy) and blood according to Oriental beliefs. My aim is to bring your body into balance by clearing any blockages you have which are causing you pain or illness, to enable you to lead a healthy and fulfilling life.

    Moxibustion

    Moxibustion is the burning of the herb mugwort on acu-points or areas of pain or weakness, it radiates an immense amount of heat into your body to bring about pain relief, by moving the stagnation that has accumulated to create the pain you are experiencing.

    Eastern Cupping

    Suction cups are placed on areas of tightness or knots in muscle tissue to soften the masses and relieve pain. They can also be applied to your body to draw out cold, and in some cases can be used as a whole treatment for certain disorders.

    Chinese Herbs

    I use Chinese Medicines, if necessary, as an adjunct to the acupuncture treatments I will be giving you to aid your body to heal as quickly as possible.

    Neuro Emotional Technique

    Emotions such as fear, anger, grief and many others can negatively affect us long after the original event that cased them. When our body fails to "let go" of these emotions we can find ourselves with unexplained aversions, self-sabotaging behaviors, destructive beliefs, phobias and many chronic physical problems!
    While emotions are perfectly normal, they sometimes produce behaviors years later that are counterproductive to our health. The Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) approach helps you to identify, and let go of, "stuck" emotional patterns which are causing you grief in many areas of your life. netmindbody.com

    MORA bio-electric diagnostic therapy

    Developed by Dr Franz Morell and electronics engineer Mr Erich Rasche in Germany in 1975. This form of electro-acupuncture in combination with the principles of Chinese medicine and homeopathy regulates and unburdens the body to enhance the healing process.
    Mora therapy measures and analyses the electro magnetic oscillations of the body and restores these to full harmonious balance. This result is enhanced by including individualized homeopathic remedies into the treatment circuit. Mora therapy is an effective, non intrusive and painless therapy, which is beneficial for adults and children. for more information on the MORA oirf.com

    Acupuncture

    Japanese acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles into acupuncture points in your body to redirect energy to allow your body to bring about a natural healing. These needles are used with very shallow insertion sometimes only just touching the skin with no insertion at all.
    The pulse and abdomen are palpated to indicate any imbalance and the best form of treatment for you.

    There are different forms of Japanese acupuncture and Christine is a practitioner of two of these.

    One is with the use of ion pumping cords attached to needles or studs, these cords along with the points they are connected to work to bring increased blood flow to areas of pain to reduce that pain, as well as the blockages in energy which are causing the problem, in order to bring about your healing.

    The other form is a non-insertion technique which has been developed by the blind practitioners in Japan. This painless form of acupuncture is very powerful and brings about your healing with the utmost comfort. acupuncture.org.au
