Acupuncture Classical and Modern
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body.
The needles are believed to stimulate the flow of qi (pronounced “chee”), or vital energy and blood, which is thought to be essential for good health.
There are two main types of acupuncture: classical and modern.
Classical acupuncture is based on the principles of TCM, while modern acupuncture is based on Western scientific understanding of the body.
Pulse Diagnosis & Herbal Medicine
Pulse diagnosis is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) technique used to assess a person’s overall health and well-being by feeling the pulse at the wrist.
Practitioners believe that the pulse can reveal a great deal about a person’s health, including their organ function, blood and energy flow, and emotional state.
Adrian Taricani has trained in pulse diagnosis with the incredible Dr Zhang Wei Yan and Dr Robert Doane for the past 8 years.
Adrian Taricani has dedicated himself to mastering this technique.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue therapy is a valuable technique that can enhance the effectiveness of your acupuncture treatment.
This approach involves creating tension in a specific direction on the skin and passively moving the body in different ways. By doing so, it aims to improve muscle, nerve and joint function, help pain, and enhance the overall well-being of individuals seeking relief.
Diet and Lifestyle Consultations and Advice
We believe that food is medicine and that certain foods can help to balance the body’s energy, improve digestion, and boost the immune system.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views dietary and lifestyle advice as essential to treatment. In TCM, the belief is that the body is a holistic system and that imbalances in one area can affect other areas.
