Acupuncture treatments, along with Moxibustion and Cupping, comprise a large part of the ancient system of Traditional Chinese Medicine used by Lorna Withers at Essex Acupuncture to restore balance to the body and initiate its built-in healing mechanisms giving you sustained health and well being.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is an ancient system of healing. Illness is a sign of disharmony and a disruption in the flow of Qi”, or the vital energy” within the body. Qi consists of Yin” and Yang”. They are two opposites but complementary. These two forces need to be balanced, otherwise disease or illness occurs in the body. TCM aims to harmonize the flow of qi to restore health. Acupuncture, acupressure, herbalism, cupping, moxibustion, qigong, tuina and diet are different aspects of TCM.

Medical Acupuncture has become increasingly well known for its safe and effective treatment of pain. Medical Acupuncture stimulates the nerves in skin and muscle, and can produce a variety of effects. Research shows that medical acupuncture treatment increases the body's release of natural painkillers (endorphins and serotonin) in the pain pathways of both the spinal cord and the brain. This modifies the way pain signals are received and can help reduce your pain...
