How does acupuncture work?        In the same way that when you notice something is wrong with your car you will take it to a mechanic who will start the engine, lift the bonnet and listen for the signs that indicate a particular fault.  As an acupuncturist I am trained to recognise the body’s symptoms telling us that something is wrong.      Then using needles and taking a full history from you, I am able to make the necessary adjustments to enable your recovery and to help you to feel and function at your best.   Acupuncture uses very fine needles to stimulate your own natural healing response, resulting in an increased sense of well being and positivity and an improvement in the physical and emotional symptoms that you have been experiencing.
