Approach to Acupuncture & How I Work

Your comfort and your treatment goals are the priority and appointments will focus on ensuring that you get the maximum benefit from diagnosis and treatment.

In treatment Heather will gain a thorough understanding of your main complaint and general health by taking a full medical history (operations, medications and conditions) and information about your symptoms, sleep pattern, diet, digestion and other lifestyle factors. Some of the questions may seem unrelated to your condition, however it all helps to form a complete picture of your health and lifestyle.

She is also qualified to offer nutritional and lifestyle advice based on Oriental Medicine principles to help you back to health.
This advice will be based on your unique constitution and will take into account any goals that you may have. What is good for one person may not be good for another and eating according to our body's energetics can be fundamental to regaining good health.
