Acupuncture is an ancient medical system which has been practised in China and other Eastern countries for thousands of years.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine Qi (or vital energy) circulates through a series of invisible channels beneath the skin. Qi consists of equal and opposite qualities - Yin and Yang - and when these become unbalanced, the flow of Qi is disrupted and over time, ill health may occur. The flow of Qi can be disturbed by factors such as emotional states, poor nutrition, stimulants, weather conditions, hereditary factors, infections, toxins and trauma.
Acupuncture involves the gentle insertion of very fine needles in key areas along the channels (acupuncture points) to stimulate and balance Qi in order to restore health. Taking into account a wide range of signs and symptoms (including tongue and pulse diagnosis) the aim is to identify a pattern which points to an underlying imbalance that can be corrected by safe and effective treatment.
Often described as a means of pain relief, acupuncture is in fact used to assist people with a wide range of health issues, including:
Pain
Sports injuries
Repetitive strain injuries
Arthritis
Rheumatism
Insomnia
Anxiety and depression
Respiratory disorders
Digestive problems
Gynaecological issues
Allergies
Circulatory problems
Headaches
Immune disorders
It may be possible to improve the symptoms of other conditions and it is always worth enquiring about any particular problem you may have. Established in 2008. Gill is the founder of Acupuncture Tao Dao (formerly Tao Dao Complementary Health Clinic in London N6). She trained in London at LCTA (London College of Traditional Acupuncture) and China (Hangzhou). Gill taught for many years in the Student Clinic at LCTA and now teaches at the City College of Acupuncture.
Her training in complementary medicine began in 1989 and she is fully qualified in shiatsu, remedial and sports massage, aromatherapy and reiki. Greatly influenced by her mentor Dr Wu, a specialist at the teaching hospital in Hangzhou, China, she has developed her own style of practice combining acupuncture with energy healing.
