- Why Acupuncture with us?
Acupuncture treatment is available all over the world but not all acupuncturists are the same. Authentic acupuncture is part of a comprehensive system of Chinese Medicine that is hard to find in the West.
There are many acupuncturists who have only trained in a specialist area of acupuncture which means that they are much more limited in what they can offer their patients.
The acupuncture at Dr.Gu Acupuncture Clinic incorporates the entire system of Chinese Medicine and is holistic rather than symptomatic. This means that the whole person is treated, and not just their symptoms. This is called Syndrome Acupuncture and is authentic acupuncture as practised in China.

Most people find acupuncture a pleasant and deeply relaxing experience. However, there is usually kind of needling feeling while you have acupuncture treatment. You may feel a short prick on insertion and a pulling sensation if there is an intense blockage of Qi. But after few seconds it will despaired and most people can have a deep sleeping or relaxation during the acupuncture treatment.
