It is also very effective with:

 Cancer care: Used alongside chemotherapy and radiotherapy as a means of managing side effects and providing emotional support in dealing with the illness. Patients frequently comment on how full of energy and stamina they feel after acupuncture treatment. I also helps those close to someone diagnosed with cancer to keep strong emotionally and physically in order to support them.

Low Resistance to colds, flu and common viruses: By stimulating the body’s immune system acupuncture helps in preparing the body to respond quicker and more effectively to these illnesses.

Fertility: It helps to deal with the emotional stress a person is under when faced with the possibility of fertility problems, which can cause more distress, thus making conception even more difficult. It also can be used alongside IVF treatment as a means of controlling side effects.

Pregnancy: During pregnancy acupuncture helps in lessening morning sickness during the initial stages. It maintains the woman’s balance of energy which helps the body to cope with the demanding changes during this time. It also provides post natal support: physically, by helping the body re-adjust itself, and emotionally, by helping the woman to cope with the daily demands of being a new mother. For those already having treatment throughout pregnancy with me, I also offer a session with the mother-to-be and her birth partner on acupressure. The partner will learn how to locate and use acupressure points to aid with labour, in controlling pain, and with immediate post labour recovery.

Preventative care: For those with no particular complaints, but want to maintain a healthy balance.
