An inability to deal with the stress of our lives can contribute to a wide range of emotional and physical problems from high blood pressure, insomnia and anxiety through to rashes, diarrhoea and impotence.

Unfortunately stress is an inescapable part of life, which makes how it is dealt with of vital importance
to maintaining good health. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine work quickly to alleviate physical symptoms, reduce stress levels and allow the body to relax. This then improves the balance between
the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nervous systems, resetting our physiology in preparedness for
the next adrenaline burst of stress.

Often the simplest thing we can do to ease the physiological burden of stress is to reduce our intake
of coffee, tea and energy drinks.


A course of treatments focussed on relaxing and reducing stress will minimise the
damage done by a high stress event, period of life or even career. Often the things
that create the stress can't be changed, but our ability to deal with them can. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can help with this.

If the stress from whatever source has been enough to create a diagnosis of
severe depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress, etc, then Acupuncture and
Chinese Medicine combine well with other modalities in an Integrative
Treatment Strategy.

Often once the acute symptoms of a mood disorder have stabilised Acupuncture
and Chinese Medicine may be used to assist in the withdrawal from anti-depressants
and other medication.
