Treatment A TCM practitioner uses four methods of diagnosis to assess a patient’s condition: asking, observing (this involves looking at the tongue, noting the tone of the skin and the way a patient moves), listening and smelling, and touching.  The latter includes pulse taking; checking the rhythm and strength of al 12 meridian pulses (six on each wrist).  The practitioner looks for ‘patterns of disharmony’, for example, yin or yang excess or deficiency in particular organs, and will then suggest a programme of herbal remedies, acupuncture and other treatments. Acupuncture Main uses;  Over 300 medical conditions and the list is ever expanding such as – pain relief, anaesthesia, arthritis, musculo-skeletal problems, addictions, asthma, hay fever, depression, anxiety, migraine, nausea and other digestive disorders, high blood pressure, women’s health. Treatment – there are about 365 acupoints along the meridians at which qi is concentrated and enters and leaves the body.  The acupuncturist inserts fine stainless steel needles to a depth of about 4-25mm at these sites to stimulate or suppress the flow of qi. Needles may be left in place for a few minutes or as long as an hour.  Sometimes a practitioner will burn moxa, a herb, over the acupoint to create a stimulating heat. acupuncture cairns / acupuncture cairns / acupuncture cairns / acupuncture cairns
