Acupuncture is a gentle therapy that involves the use of very fine, sterile needles placed at specific points on the body. These points are selected to support the body’s natural regulatory processes, including the nervous system, circulation, and overall physiological balance.
By encouraging these systems to function more smoothly, acupuncture may assist with reducing pain, supporting recovery, easing stress, and improving overall wellbeing and resilience. It is commonly used for concerns such as chronic pain and injuries, headaches and migraines, stress and anxiety, sleep and digestive disturbances, women’s and reproductive health concerns, allergies, fatigue, and general wellbeing.
Each session is tailored to the individual, taking into account their symptoms, health history, and how these factors may be affecting both body and mind.

Chinese herbal medicine is used as part of traditional Chinese medicine to support health and recovery.
In clinic, Chelsey prescribes high-quality, professionally manufactured patent herbal formulas used within established Chinese medicine practice. These formulas are selected to suit your individual presentation, constitution, and stage of healing.
Herbal medicine is not prescribed routinely. During your consultation, we will discuss whether herbal medicine is appropriate for you and ensure that any recommendations align with your needs, preferences, and overall treatment plan.

Cupping is a traditional therapy that uses suction through cups placed on the skin to improve circulation and release areas of tension. Cups may be left in one place or gently moved across the skin using a sliding technique, depending on the area being treated and your individual needs.
Temporary marks or discolouration may appear after treatment and usually fade within a few days. This is a normal response and reflects changes in circulation within the tissues.
Cupping is commonly used for muscular pain and tightness, fluid congestion, stress-related tension, and respiratory concerns, and is often used alongside acupuncture as part of a broader treatment approach.
-
Moxibustion is a traditional heat therapy that gently warms specific acupuncture points or areas of the body using dried mugwort. The warmth helps improve circulation, ease discomfort, and support the body’s natural recovery processes.
Moxibustion is often used when people feel cold, depleted, or run down, and may help with pain, low energy, or poor circulation. It is commonly used alongside acupuncture to enhance treatment and provide a deeply comforting and restorative effect.
-
Gua sha is a traditional therapy that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool to stimulate circulation. The term gua means “to scrape,” while sha refers to the temporary redness or markings that may appear as a result of the treatment.
Gua sha is commonly used on different areas of the body to help reduce muscle tension, pain, stiffness, and restricted movement. It may also be helpful for inflammation and certain respiratory or immune related concerns.
Gua sha is often used alongside acupuncture as part of a broader treatment approach, depending on your individual needs.
-
Chinese remedial massage is a hands on therapeutic treatment designed to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural recovery processes. Treatment may combine targeted massage techniques with supportive therapies such as cupping, gua sha, or moxibustion to address areas of pain or restriction. Slower, calming methods are also used to help settle the nervous system and promote deep relaxation.
Chinese remedial massage may be beneficial for musculoskeletal pain, injury recovery, headaches, stress-related tension, fatigue, and general body discomfort. Each session is tailored to your individual needs and can be booked as a standalone treatment or used alongside acupuncture.
