Acupuncture
SAFE AND EFFECTIVE RELIEF
Acupuncture is one of several Traditional Therapies that effectively relieving pain and other
conditions, and do not have the side effects associated with drug treatments. In many cases
the natural therapies lead to a cure rather than just the temporary relief of symptoms.
Traditional therapies have proved especially effective and safe in conditions like; sports
injuries, back pain, stress management, irritable bowel, headache, repetitive strain injury, and
arthritis, just to name a few.

WIDELY ACCEPTED
The use of acupuncture has become widely accepted in recent years. This general
acceptance is illustrated by the fact that BUPA, HSA, and VHI all now include acupuncture and
other natural therapies in their schemes. Today, it has gained the general respect of the
medical profession. Among its lesser know uses is in fertility treatment. Many IVF clinics
recommend acupuncture as a helpful addition to their therapies.

OLDEST KNOW MEDICINE
Acupuncture is one of the oldest forms of organised medicine known. It has a very long history
and can be dated back to over 500 BC.

PINS AND NEEDLES!
Acupuncture is generally associated with the use of fine needles; however, modern forms exist
where an electronic device is used instead of needles. Ear acupuncture has been used to
help people stop smoking and to relieve stress. The media recently showed Cherie Blair, the
UK prime minister's wife, with a small acupuncture stimulator in her ear. Media speculation
suggested that its intended use was to relieve stress.

medicine was generally frowned upon is Tony McGinley who lives and practices in Westcourt.
