Welcome to Claire Mash Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine, which is a natural healthcare system based on ancient principles dating back nearly 2,000 years.
It is a system which views - 'pain, illness, general health problems', as signs that the body is out of balance and that 'Qi' (which is seen as the body's vital energy source in Chinese Medicine) is not flowing properly. It is when this Qi or the body's vital energy does not flow properly that problems arise.
Acupuncture treatments, aim to restore the natural flow of Qi and thus the body's natural equilibrium and wellbeing.
Fire cupping
Glass cups form a vacuum seal on the skin to stimulate blood flow and clear stagnant qi.
Infra-red heat lamp
Improves blood circulation, which aids joint/muscular pain. It also helps to relax muscular tension and enables Qi to flow freely.
Gua Sha
A 'Gua sha tool' often made of jade or quartz, is used to rub/scrape over the the skin, to increase blood flow and clear stagnant Qi. This can help to relieve pain and muscular tension.
Electro-acupuncture
Similar to a TENS machine, small electrodes are attached to the needles. Electrical impulses are generated via the electrodes, which flow through the needles, stimulating the flow of Qi which helps to relieve pain.
