How We Treat

The focus at Heidelberg Chinese Medicine is on getting the maximum benefit with the minimum input. Our aim is to fix what you want fixed, and give you the means of keeping it that way. To do this we use the flexible and time tested healing techniques of Chinese medicine.

A typical appointment will entail:

Traditional Chinese Medical diagnosis that includes questioning, a medical history, tongue and pulse diagnosis.

Massage and maybe cupping to clear superficial stress and tension, and to begin to get your qi moving.

Acupuncture, the insertion of very fine stainless steel needles at specific points to stimulate and correct the flow of qi in your body, re-establishing healthy balance.

Prescription of herbal formulas. Individualised combinations of herbal medicines to continue the momentum of the treatment. When we prescribe herbs we use the safest and most sustainable available, your health is our main priority and a healthy planet is part of that.

Homework, usually in the form of advice on lifestyle, diet and exercises to help you take control of your health.

We may also refer you another health professional. If we believe that working with someone in our wide network of health professionals can help you reach your goals faster or more fully then we will most certainly let you know about them.

What We Treat

When life gets rough; ENERGY is LOW, STRESS is HIGH, SLEEP is POOR, and getting through the day feels impossible; a few treatments at Heidelberg Chinese Medicine will smooth you out again.

At times of major life changes, such as PREGNANCY, CHILDHOOD and MENOPAUSE, Heidelberg Chinese Medicine can provide support to make the journey as healthy and fulfilling as possible.

PAIN relief is one of the great strengths of acupuncture.

Headache, Neck pain, acute and chronic back pain, osteoarthritis, and various forms of cancer related and post-operative pain all respond rapidly to the massage, acupuncture and herbal solutions we provide.

CHRONIC problems can respond well to our treatments whether they be recurrent, some days there and others not, constantly part of your life or even just that sense of not feeling quite right.
