Acupuncture with Anna de Moor


 
Acupuncture is a holistic healthcare system developed over thousands of years as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This ancient form of medicine has become an evidence based approach to healing following thousands of clinical trials and research which have validated its effectiveness as recognized by the Department of Health and the World Health Organization.
 




"The principal aim of acupuncture is to treat the whole person in order to recover the equilibrium between the physical, emotional and spiritual. Acupuncture supports the body's innate ability to heal itself."
      
I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC), which is the main regulatory body for traditional acupuncture in this country. Members of the BAcC follow a strict code of ethics and practice and are bound by their professional code of conduct.

Stress

New research released this year suggests that a staggering one in six people suffer from stress. There are many different causes of stress which are primarily related to a situation or event and how a person deals or responds to that situation. The signs of stress can therefore differ from one person to the next and may manifest in the form of conditions such as IBS, anxiety, migraines, insomnia or depression, back pain and fatigue.
