Five Element Initial Consultation

This session is all about you! We will have a chat about what brings you here, and I will ask you questions about your physical, emotional, and spiritual health. This is to gauge and understand your needs and where the disharmony may be in your body.

I will then do some physical checks, such as taking pulses, tongue diagnosis, and three jiao. All of these will be explained, and I will ensure your comfort is the priority. The physical checks are to explore the condition of your internal organs and overall wellness.

I will start the needling by carrying out a detox treatment. The needles used are very fine, so there is no need to worry. After this, I will begin with what you need specific help with, using a range of points. Consider this stage all about detoxing and getting rid of any energy blocks while you relax.

Five Element Follow Up Treatment

This follow-up session will be shorter as I tailor what points are best suited to your needs and symptoms.

We will discuss any changes since we last saw each other and adjust the treatment accordingly. We will, in essence, make progress in making you feel your best!

Facial Enhancement Initial Consultation

This involves an in-depth consultation about what exactly the patient wants to gain from facial acupuncture, including going into physical, mental, and spiritual health, as this will help me gauge a suitable treatment plan and whether a couple of five-element acupuncture sessions would be of use, as this will benefit you and speed up the results you are looking for.

I will also carry out a detox treatment and then begin working on the face. I will need access to your hands, arms, legs, feet, and back, so wear something comfy!

Following a period of relaxation with the needles in place, they will be gently removed, and you will indulge in a rejuvenating facial massage utilising premium serums and creams, revitalising your skin.

Facial Enhancement Follow Up Treatment

These sessions will be based on the information I gathered during the initial consultation. The rest of the treatment focuses on the face and neck (if this is an area of concern). There will be relaxing music and aromas, so you can have a well-deserved time.

I will also use auricular points, which are on the ear and have multiple amazing benefits, such as helping with sleep, stress, allergies, digestion, pain relief, and more! At the end of the treatment, I finish with an Indian facial rejuvenation massage, leaving you feeling light and content.

FAQs

Where are you based?

Balanced Acupuncture provides acupuncture services in Stow-on-the-Wold, Lechlade-on-Thames, and mobile acupuncture services in the Cotswold area.

Our cosy treatment rooms are located in ZinK Clinic (Stow-on-the-Wold) and the Health Box Shop (Lechlade-on-Thames), the perfect place to relax. If you’re coming to Stow-on-the-Wold to see me there is free parking on the road and a pay car park down the Maugersbury Road. We do have a space behind the building but it is a very tricky entrance/exit and I don’t recommend it unless you have a small car. If you’re seeing me at Lechlade you can find free parking for two hours right outside in the car park.

How do I book an appointment?

You can book an appointment here to visit my clinic in Lechlade-on-Thames.

For appointments in Stow-on-the-Wold or mobile acupuncture services, use my contact form here.

How many sessions will I need?

I recommend coming for 4-6 sessions and regular, monthly treatments to follow. You will immediately feel lighter, happier, and relaxed. However, as acupuncture works by stimulating the natural healing processes in the body and balancing Qi (energy), it can take a few sessions to build the body’s defences and address issues. 

I offer 10% off when 6 sessions are booked.

What conditions can acupuncture treat?

Acupuncture is known to effectively treat a wide range of conditions, including hormone problems (e.g. PMS, endometriosis, heavy and painful periods), stress, anxiety, depression, infertility, insomnia, digestive issues, allergies, the immune system and migraines. In facial enhancement acupuncture, we treat skin concerns, for example, wrinkles, sagging skin, lack of glow and plumpness, acne, crow’s feet, jowls, and more. You will feel vibrant and overall wellness is improved!

How does acupuncture work?

Acupuncture works by stimulating meridians (energy pathways) using tiny needles. Illness results from disruptions and imbalances in the energy flow of the body. Five-element acupuncture is particularly concerned about the influence of nature and the elements within the body (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water) as each is associated with particular emotions, organs and meridians and relieves blockages present. Acupuncture looks at the individual as a whole as emotional and physical ailments are treated, we aim to encourage the body to heal itself naturally and so to maintain optimal health.

Do needles hurt?

Many people put off wonderful treatments due to their fear of needles. The needles used are extremely small and thin, the most you would feel is slight discomfort. The majority of individuals find the process deeply calming and even fall asleep so there is no need to worry.

What should I wear to my appointment?

I suggest wearing comfy clothes. During your treatment, I need access to many body parts such as arms, legs, torso, and back. This applies to facial acupuncture too.
