Acupuncture for Pain Relief
Relieve pain, manage injuries and promote health and wellbeing with our bespoke physiotherapy packages at Emma James Physiotherapy in Berkhamsted.
Physiotherapy uses movement and exercise to restore function to as near normal as possible when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability. Physiotherapists work autonomously with other healthcare professionals in a wide variety of settings such as intensive care, mental illness, stroke recovery, occupational health, and care of the elderly, always working with patients to promote their health and wellbeing.
Acupuncture Can Be Used As A Treatment For:
- Morning sickness
- Osteoarthritis
- Insomnia
- Migraines
- Anxiety and Depression
- Circulation
- Addiction
- Facial palsy
- Sinus problems
Acupuncture is a natural way to seek pain relief and ease pain symptoms and associated dysfunctions. Most people feel immediate effects, but it is always recommended that acupuncture is used at least three times to have a lasting effect on a condition.
Cupping Treatment
30 minutes - £55.00
Cupping has long been part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), but its origins go back even further. Historians have found cupping mentioned in ancient Egyptian and Middle Eastern textbooks dating back over 3,00 years ago. Originally developed to treat lung infections, cupping gradually evolved to treat a wide range of health problems.
So what happens during a cupping session? Your therapist will use small glass or plastic suction cups to apply steady pressure to your skin. This increases the flow of blood and lymph through the area, helping to remove built-up toxins.
In a way, it’s similar to the pressure exerted during a deep tissue massage. The goal is to keep your body's qi (internal energy) flowing freely by removing stagnant areas where tension and toxins build up. In fact, those purplish marks on your skin after a cupping session is part of this natural detox process.
What Are the Benefits of Cupping?
Studies show that cupping can effectively reduce pain and inflammation associated with headaches, muscular tension, arthritis, and soft tissue injuries. There’s also evidence to suggest it can help ease symptoms of repetitive strain injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome.
No one is sure exactly how or why cupping has these positive effects on the body. The best guess is that cupping helps to restore the body’s internal balance and reduce factors that cause disease. In turn, your immune system functions better and your overall health improves.
Wellness & Rebalancing (Acupuncture, Cupping & Gua Sha Massage)
Appointment – 50 minutes £110.00
Acupuncture, an ancient healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, has been used for thousands of years to treat various physical, mental, and emotional ailments. This holistic approach to health focuses on stimulating specific points on the body to restore balance, relieve pain, and promote healing.
Today, acupuncture is widely recognized and even recommended by health professionals for its therapeutic effects. From managing pain and reducing stress to improving sleep and digestion, the benefits of acupuncture are vast and varied.
Incorporating cupping therapy into your wellness routine can help you feel more relaxed, move with less pain, and support overall health. Whether you’re dealing with chronic tension or need a natural way to de-stress, cupping offers a holistic solution that works beneath the surface. While the marks may fade, the benefits last much longer.
Gua sha is an ancient Chinese healing technique that uses special tools to scrape the skin and promote circulation. The practice enhances microcirculation, reduces inflammation, and helps break down scar tissue in muscles and skin.
A Gua Sha massage is a must-do massage if you want to boost circulation, restore, and stimulate cell renewal. All these benefits make it the perfect massage to improve blood circulation, it helps to restore the skin, and skin tissues are better oxygenated, and cells are regenerated. The technique supports lymphatic drainage, detoxification, and immune function while alleviating muscle tension and pain.
