BioChi Clinic Therapies & Services: 1. Acupuncture & Needling. The original, ancient energy needling medicine. This includes needling, cupping & moxa.

Singularly or Combined Each of these fnatural therapies may be used individually, or in combination - in different ways depending on the nature of the imbalance or the exhibited health problems. Based on YinYang Sciences The treatment startegies I use, are based on ancient YinYang Sciences. These sciences were one of the great scientific breakthroughs of the ancient world - but are little known of today; having been fragmented & commandeed by the magician-spiritualsts and reinterpreted to fit esoteric thought. They differ from the core yinyang medicine theories thatTradtitonal Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based on.

YinYang Needling This is NOT Traditional Chinese, Japanese or Medical Acupuncture; or Modern Dry Needling. It pre-dates them. YinYang Needling is a very different to these more commonly known therapies. The concepts that inform YinYang Needling theory & practice are unique to it, and are not found in Acupuncture. How does it Work? YinYang Needling creates powerful therapeutic effects by balancing, stimulating & regulating all the energy systems throughout the body.  As the energy systems regain balance, the body’s own powerful healing and repair systems kick into action - enabling the body to heal itself more effectively. This approach often restores health to the body in a surprisingly short time. Balancing The Body’s Energy Systems The energy systems are inter-connected with one another. And, with good health the yin-yang properties of the entire body are well-balanced. When our health is injured, an imbalance is produced in the energic system, a malfunction occurs in an organ or function of the body; and very specific symptoms appear. Each problem will exhibit a set of yin - yang conditions e.g. cold or hot, contracting or flaccid, over-excited or under-active, little sleep or excessive sleepiness; and so on. If the imbalance is not corrected, the body’s defence and recuperative powers can be overwhelmed; leading to compound problems - with a complex array of symptoms. We needle points to return yin-yang balance to all affected systems. Needling enables the body to react to any internal trauma or crisis or external stresses properly. It removes the symptoms and restores health action to the affected areas We must address the disease causes by making changes to eating, exercise, work-rest or any problem-causing activities & behaviour patterns. Individualised Care It requires sound judgement, experience & expertise to deliver great treatment results. Each treatment is as individual as the person affected. Careful diagnosis is required to target dysfunction, imbalance and identify causes. At your follow-up appointment I monitor any changes and adapt the treatment taking into account therapeutic results achieved from the previous session and the current state of the complaint. Massage (activation-release) We use different applications of light or firm pressure, rubbing, brushing applied to soft tissue, BioChi points, bones surfaces, tendons, muscle zones; and we also gently stretch-mobilise bony areas including joints, torso, vertebrae, back, skull, neck and limbs. Our goal is to return balanced movement and action to the affected area; and all related or supporting structures & functions. It will help restriction or pain on movement, injuries - old or new, specific illnesses, and your general health. How it Works We assess your problems using veterinarian-like observational diagnosis of yinyang imbalances and your body and movement patterns, and Q&A interview. We then use a set of age-old therapeutic hand-finger techniques to address the issues. We most often recommend combining hands-on Muscle & Bone BodyWork, with different combinations of Needling, Exercise Therapies or Food-Nutrient Prescriptions. Looking At Causes Pain, restriction, abnormal muscle & bone development, and poor movement patterns stem from structural imbalances; and they also have their root in internal health problems caused by diet, various emotional-mental stresses, organ dysfunction, low energy and more. We will make recommendations to counteract the causes, or any aggravating factors, we have identified. Structural Related Health Problems. Muscle to Organ Links Blood, nerve and energy supply can be greatly hindered when muscles tighten or go flaccid. This is significant, because there are associations between muscles and organs & body functions. A weak muscle will produce a corresponding weakness in a related system of the body. Flow-on Effects if Not Fixed Unchecked problems in the moving components or stabilising structures of the hips, sciatic area, joint, knees for example, can have direct impact or flow-on effects on the normal working of the bowel, gut, waterworks, and lungs for instance. We can correct many sporting & workplace injuries or imbalances with this form of YinYang Medicine. And, r eliance on pain-killers is not a sound long-term option.
