It is so easy to think that Japanese Acupuncture is just for sprains and pains. People get this mistaken impression because they only talk to other people who have suffered from these conditions and been treated with acupuncture.


The reality is that Japanese Acupuncture is a very versatile form of gentle, natural healing and the range of health conditions that it assists with are very diverse in nature, duration and severity.


When looking through my case histories, I can cite many diverse cases where I have been able to assist through Japanese Acupuncture:


  • A male who suffered from severe gout that created a swollen knee and constant, excruciating pain – achieved a relatively pain-free state
  • An elite swimmer suffering from exhaustion and resultant dejection – able to resume training with renewed energy and improved performance
  • A woman who underwent acupuncture treatments to assist her pregnancy and child birth – acupuncture acknowledged as a contributor to rapid birth of a healthy child
  • A male surfer bed-ridden from a severe attack of debilitating Bharma Forest Fever – able to surf within two seeks of acupuncture treatment with resultant loss of headaches and easing of pain from swollen joints
  • A member of a band suffering from food poisoning and attendant health issues such as severe diarrhea and lethargy – able to perform as the band drummer one hour after a gentle acupuncture treatment and able to travel and perform overseas as a result of a full recovery within a few days
  • A young woman suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome – able to regain her energy and strength with acupuncture treatment over a few months.
  • A young boy in Prague suffering from Cerebral Palsy – after one Japanese Acupuncture treatment reacted very positively and smiled a lot, began drinking a lot and began to open his hands.

The work of my former student/assistant from Chile, Sylvia, now a very competent practitioner, brings the versatility of acupuncture into further light. Sylvia offered free Japanese Acupuncture to victims of the 2010 Chilean Earthquake and was able to help them with acupuncture treatments for health conditions such as panic attacks, sleeping disorders, anxiety, muscle aches and pains, headaches and stomach disorders. Sylvia was delighted with the very positive physical and emotional response from the men, women and children she treated. She expressed deep gratitude for being able to use the healing power of Japanese Acupuncture for treating fellow Chileans who had suffered such devastation. She felt that as a practitioner she was privileged to have access to the inherent logic of the Japanese Acupuncture approach and the thousands of years of clinical practice that underpins this natural therapy.


Japanese Acupuncture can redress many health conditions because of its versatility. It’s gentle approach makes it very suitable for treating children as well as adults. We encourage you to contact us to see how we can improve your health and well-being through Japanese Acupuncture.

The Twelve Benefits of Qigong

The Twelve Benefits of Qigong

Qigong is an ancient Chinese system of exercise and meditation that makes the mind and spirit tranquil, improves performance in sports, and cultivates health, well-being, and long life. Thus, there are three major kinds of qigong: spiritual, sports, and healing. It is a spiritual discipline, inspired by ancient Chinese shamans, Taoists, and Buddhists, all of who sought harmony and peace in the solitude of nature.


Evidence demonstrates that qigong may be an effect adjunct in the treatment of many illnesses including cancer and heart disease. Learn about the remarkable 12 benefits of qigong, here:


1. Well-being and improved health. Qigong emphasizes the whole body, whole system health. While it is true that qigong will often cure specific ills, this is not the primary reason for practice. It is not only a matter of adding years to your life, but life to your years.


2. Clear and tranquil mind. When the mind is at peace, the whole universe seems at peace. World peace begins with you; it is your responsibility to find a peaceful heart and mind. Then you can heal and transform others just through your presence. If you have a tranquil mind, you will make better decisions and have the skill to know when act and when to be still.


3. Deeper, more restorative sleep. Qigong will help you find the deep relaxation and mental quiet necessary for sleep.


4. Increased energy, including sexual vitality and fertility. Qigong people have more energy; it can reverse energy and restore youthfulness.


5. Comfortable warmth. Qigong is great for cold hands and feet. Circulation improves, and the body generates more internal warmth when it is cold.


6. Clear skin. The skin, like the intestines, is an organ of elimination. According to Chinese medicine, as your qigong improves, your body eliminates toxins, and the skin becomes clear.


7. Happy attitude. There is an old Tibetan saying, “You can tell a Yogi by his or her laugh.” Correct and moderate qigong practice usually creates an optimistic and joyous disposition.


8. More efficient metabolism. Digestion improves, and hair and nails grow more quickly.


9. Greater physiological control. This means that aspects of the body that were imbalanced or out of control begin to normalize, for example, breathing rate, heart rate, blood pressure, hormone levels, and states of chronic inflammation or depletion.


10. Bright eyes. The qigong master’s eyes are said to glow in the dark, like a cat’s. The eyes also appear bright because the spirit and soul are luminous and the heart is open.


11. Intuition and creativity. Intuition and creativity generate each other and come from the same source, an awakened brain and being, an ability to think with the gut, to feel with the mind.


12. Spiritual effects. Advancement in qigong is often accompanied by a variety of spiritual experiences. For example, synchronicity, meaningful coincidences, become more common. When the qi is abundant, clear, and flowing, the senses perceive and are permeated by a sweetness.
