Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine & Natural Health

Acupuncture stimulates certain points on the body in order to balance functions of the body and restore health.

How may acupuncture help you?

Stress, anxiety and sleep

Are you stressed? Or are you even aware that you could be?

Impacts of stress may appear as:

pain, particularly neck pain
hormonal imbalances
immunity issues (frequent cold & flu)
anxiety
poor sleep
digestive issues
mental fog

Our bodies are under constant stress – in our modern lives the typical day involves numerous forms of stress such as the morning rush, a busy commute, fast paced work life, deadlines, lunch on the run, high intensity exercise, and family pressure. While these events and pressures all come from different places (and leads to a fight or flight response) our body perceives it all as one stress!!

Long-term this constant state can be detrimental to our health.

The practice of Traditional acupuncture is very restful, and we utilise treatment methods which facilitate your body to return to a state of rest again.

Benefits of treatment may include:

a reduction in perceived stress
mental clarity and improved concentration
reduced muscle tension & pain
improved sleep quality
increased energy
improved wellbeing

Traditional acupuncture works very quickly during a treatment session at creating a sense of calm.

At Ridiculously Well our practitioner is a AHPRA registered acupuncturist who practices a refined form of treatment which utilises direct feedback from abdominal and body palpation, pulse and tongue diagnosis to guide individualised treatment of every session.
