Mind, Body and Soul

ACUPUNCTURE

Balance Your Qi

Acupuncture can be used in conjunction with other alternative therapies and modalities such as ear seeding, cupping, moxa, and gua sha massage, so it's not just about needles. These complementary treatments work synergistically to enhance the overall effectiveness of acupuncture. For instance, ear seeding can target specific points to address various health concerns, cupping can improve circulation and relieve muscle tension, moxa can warm and invigorate the flow of Qi in the body, and gua sha massage can alleviate pain and reduce inflammation.

Acupuncture takes into account the whole person, considering both physical and emotional aspects of health. By doing so, it helps activate each patient’s natural healing processes and restores their physical and emotional well-being. This holistic approach ensures that treatments are tailored to individual needs, promoting long-term health and balance.

ACUPUNCTURE FOR ALL AGES

Specialised Paediatric Acupuncture

I understand that children require specialised care and attention. As the sole practitioner at Addcamed, I practise not only TCM but also Japanese Shonishin paediatric acupuncture, a technique that does not use needles. This method is gentle, comforting, and age-appropriate. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment where children feel relaxed and at ease during their sessions. My goal is to support your child's health and well-being naturally, helping them thrive at every stage of development.

BEMER - PHYSICAL VASCULAR THERAPY

BEMER is a sophisticated form of magnetic field therapy. The application uses a pulsed electromagnetic field to deliver the special, patented signal configuration into the user’s body. In turn, this signal can improve restricted blood flow in the smallest vessels.

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND BEMER

BEMER is an application that targets key areas in the body – it works entirely without chemicals or “miracle cures”. While this may sound like magic, it’s actually just physics! The BEMER application for humans is a sophisticated form of magnetic field therapy. It uses a pulsed electromagnetic field to deliver the special, patented BEMER signal configuration into your body. BEMER can improve restricted microcirculation, i.e., blood flow in the small and smallest blood vessels. As a result, the BEMER application can support cell maintenance, i.e., the process of supplying cells with nutrients and oxygen while also removing metabolic by-products. The mechanism of action of BEMER medical products has been the subject of numerous scientific studies.

WHY CHOOSE BEMER?

Enhanced Blood Flow: Bemer technology improves microcirculation, aiding natural healing processes and promoting overall well-being.

Boosted Immunity: Stimulate your body's defence against illness and pathogens with Bemer Physical Vascular Therapy.
Increased Vitality: Feel energised and revitalised with improved stamina and vitality.
Quick Recovery: Accelerate healing from injury or chronic pain with faster recovery times.
Better Sleep: Experience improved relaxation and sleep quality for a refreshed start each day.
Stress Relief: Combat stress naturally by promoting relaxation and emotional well-being.
Non-Invasive and Drug-Free: Enjoy safe, gentle treatment without the need for medication or invasive procedures.

TESTIMONIALS

I was so lucky to find Andrea, I came to see her after suffering from ectopic heart beats every day for 2 years. The doctors wouldn’t treat it because to them it wasn’t bad enough. But for me it was very distressing to live with my heart going out of rhythm, especially at night which made my sleep onset insomnia worse.

After my first few sessions I noticed a slow but gradual improvement, the ectopic beats were still there but fainter. After the 5th session they were hardly there! Pretty much gone! I was also falling asleep by midnight which I haven’t been able to do for years. I was not expecting such a rapid improvement for a condition I’ve had for so long. Each session is changed to meet your evolving needs, when my digestive symptoms were aggravated then this too was included in my treatment. I always felt a sense of calmness after each session.

I’ve had acupuncture in the past (for other health problems), but what makes Andrea different is that she takes the time to explain everything to you from a TCM perspective as to why you have these problems. She shares her knowledge with you, explaining the tongue and pulse analysis, diet and lifestyle advice, and what the acupuncture points are doing, so you can really understand what’s going on. I loved this part of this consultation. Andrea is a great acupuncturist and a lovely warm and friendly person too. Highly recommend!

ADDITIONAL SERVICES

Cupping Therapy: £20
Moxibustion Therapy: £20
Electroacupuncture: £25

Cupping Therapy: Cupping therapy involves placing cups on the skin and creating suction to facilitate healing and promote blood flow. It can help relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. Contrary to common belief, cupping therapy is generally painless and can leave temporary marks on the skin that typically disappear within a few days.

Moxibustion Therapy: Moxibustion therapy involves burning dried mugwort (moxa) on or near specific acupuncture points to stimulate these points and promote healing. It can help alleviate pain, boost the immune system, and improve circulation. Moxibustion therapy is typically gentle and does not cause discomfort.

Electroacupuncture: Electroacupuncture involves the application of a mild electric current to acupuncture needles to enhance the effects of traditional acupuncture. It can help relieve pain, stimulate muscles, and promote healing. Despite the use of electricity, electroacupuncture is generally painless and may even be less uncomfortable than traditional acupuncture for some individuals.
