Electro-Acupuncture Worldwide

Acupuncture is an ancient system of treatment, which developed in SE Asia over 2500 years ago. It involves using sterilised, single-use needles that are very thin and flexible. These are inserted into places in your skin that the experience of thousands of years has shown to be beneficial for your health and the relief of pain.I have trained for example in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Channel and Ear acupuncture. They each have different strengths and approaches. Personally I favour Channel and Japanese acupuncture, although I've practised Chinese-style acupuncture for over 35 years. My original training was in Five-Element acupuncture, which I also use regularly.Many patients come first for pain or other health issues.Research: Western medicine makes big claims for success although when you examine them, many (apparently over 80%!) drugs when tested are found to be ineffective. Very little testing has been done on acupuncture, but the results are gradually accumulating in its favour. How do I know where to place the needles? Based on theory (almost as much theory as Western medicine!) and after discussion with you, I may take your pulse the Chinese way, examine your abdomen and/or where there is discomfort or pain, look at your tongue, and do a series of other forms of examination. Only then can I come to a diagnosis and be able to make a treatment plan and start to help you.Acupuncture is almost painless, has few side-effects, and often leaves people feeling wonderfully relaxed and comfortable with themselves.Sometimes I may do what is called 'cupping', 'moxibustion', or other treatment connected with acupuncture, or recommend herbs or nutritional or other changes or treatments.

Electroacupuncture can be particularly helpful in musculoskeletal issues and sports injuries.  

Traditional acupuncture is a gentle and profound way to assist with a wide range of acute or chronic conditions, physical and emotional, by stimulating the bodys own abilities to heal without drugs or side-effects.  Jocelyn has a BSc Honours in Acupuncture, and offers Traditional Acupuncture, as well as  Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments.

Many couples are finding benefit in acupuncture for fertility through increased blood flow to the reproductive organs, more balanced menstrual cycles, as well as improved lining of the uterus and quality of eggs. Male reproductive issues of sperm count and mobility can also be addressed.

I use electro acupuncture to enhance treatment of musculo-skeletal complaints (back, sciatica etc) and also alongside fertility treatment where relevant

I have been helping couples conceive for many years now, either naturally or to support IVF or ART processes. I am the associated acupuncturist for The London Womens Clinic in Cardiff

Electroacupuncture is where electrodes are attached to a specialist electroacupuncture machine (similar to a TENS machine) to gently stimulate the needles.  It is a painless procedure and we find it effective in the treatment of pain and some research shows that it may help women with poly-cystic ovaries to ovulate.

Jan Davis has a particular interest in fertility, having undertaken specialist training in this area.

This involves regular training and ongoing support from the Zita West Clinic in London, the largest integrated (medical and complimentary) practice in the U.K. specialising in all aspects of male and female reproductive health.
