You Could Try Acupuncture

You Could Try Acupuncture – Have you got aches and pains that won’t go away? Have you been to the doctor a dozen times and never got a solution to your medical problem? Then it might be time to try an alternative therapy such as acupuncture, to see if that can get to the root of the problem. This age old treatment began life in China many centuries ago and has been adopted in the UK more and more over the last fifty years or so. Acupuncture involves inserting fine (very fine) needles into the skin at certain points of the body (not necessarily where the pain is) to open up the energy channels and restore the balance of Chi. Supposedly your life force or Chi flows through channels in your body which are called meridian lines and it is on these meridian lines that the acupuncture needles are inserted. Because the acupuncture needles are so fine, there is rarely any pain felt by the patient, in fact pain may disappear quickly as a result of the treatment. Acupuncture therapy can be used for many different complaints including back pain, sciatica, anxiety, IBS, joint pain, post-operative pain, dental pain and headaches (or migraines). So if you have got pains that won’t go away, have a try at acupuncture, you might just be pleasantly surprised.

Why Not Try Reflexology

Why Not Try Reflexology? – Have you got aches and pains that have been bothering you for years and no matter how many paracetamol you take or how many trips to the doctors surgery you make, you just cannot seem to get any relief? Then it might be time to try something completely different. Have you ever considered reflexology as a possible solution to your problem? Reflexology is grouped in with the alternative therapies along with the likes of acupuncture, acupressure and aromatherapy, but it is a bit unique in that it is un-intrusive and at the very least you will benefit from a nice relaxing massage which should de-stress you and make you feel a lot better even if it does not solve the main problem. There is no doubt that reflexology does not work for everyone and the only way you are going to find out if it works for you is to try it. Generally speaking you should only need a couple of reflexology sessions to find out if it is right for you, so it is not going to cost you a fortune to get some enlightenment. How much does a reflexology session cost? Well on average you should expect to pay anything from £20 to £50 depending on the time of the session, the type of reflexology, the area you live in and the reflexologist that you choose. How does reflexology work? Basically reflexology involves applying pressure to various points (generally on the feet or hands) which connect to certain organs or parts of the body, in order to restore any imbalances. Results are often immediate for instance in the case of persistent headaches, which may disappear while the treatment is being applied.
