Pain can be extremely debilitating and have a significant impact on quality of life, often affecting social, physical, and emotional well-being. Traditional Chinese Medicine understands pain as a blockage of energy (Qi) or blood within the body, caused by physical, emotional, or external factors. It seeks to find and treat the source of imbalance as well as the physical symptoms.
Therapies such as Acupuncture and Lifestyle changes have been proven through modern clinical trials to be effective in the treatment of pain. Many health institutions such as the World Health Organisation (WHO) and National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) also recognise and recommend acupuncture and lifestyle modifications as conducive treatments for pain relief.
At Blossom Health, an integrative approach seeks out the source of pain. Treatments such as Acupuncture, Acupressure and Moxibustion, are used in conjunction with Lifestyle and Nutritional advice to ease symptoms so clients can enjoy more comfort when carrying out activities and during rest.
The Blossom Pathway works well in conjunction with conventional medicine recommended by GP’s, health care professionals and other specialists.
