Living Practices was founded by two practitioners of Chinese Medicine, Roberto and Helen, to offer a thorough, individualised approach in a comfortable warm environment for adults and children.
What is Chinese Medicine
Chinese Medicine is an ancient medical practice that promotes balance of the physical, energetic and spiritual aspects in human beings.
Through the practice of acupuncture, Tui Na massage, Cupping, Gua Sha, Qigong, Moxibustion, Herbs (not offered at the Living Practices) and Dietary Therapy, Chinese Medicine works on the person as a whole by aiming to remove blockages and pathogens, relaxing the nervous system and nourishing the deficiencies.
Conditions Treated
Chinese Medicine has been proved effective in treating a wide variety of conditions and disorders. This number is continuously increasing. However, anecdotally, there are numerous accounts of the relief that acupuncture brought to people, from dealing with physical pain to emotional conditions and many other health complications.
At the Living Practices we have treated people with a multitude of musculoskeletal conditions, emotional struggles, chronic conditions, pathogens, etc. Some of the example of conditions we have come across are Bell’s Palsy, frozen shoulder, eye disorders, digestive disorders, a variety of children’s health conditions, soft tissue injuries, lung conditions, fibromyalgia, anxiety, stress, skin conditions, arthritis, infertility, pregnancy related conditions (such as breech baby, anxiety, body pains, nausea, aiding the labour process), back pain, sciatica, emotional imbalances, and more.
