For successful acupuncture treatment come to Kent's leading acupuncturists at The Sandgate Clinic in Folkestone

Acupuncture at The Sandgate Clinic in Folkestone is given by Kent's leading acupuncturists

Acupuncture started in the Far East over 2000 years ago. Since this time it has been practised and developed and is now a recognised complementary therapy. Acupuncture is a holistic therapy that aims to promote a balance in the body's 'Qi'  (energy). When we are well our energy runs harmoniously throughout our body but this energy flow can become disturbed and blocked during illness and poor health. Acupuncture at this Folkestone clinic can help restore the natural energy flow, thereby improving health and well-being.

At The Sandgate Clinic in Folkestone acupuncture therapy is given by a fully qualified acupuncturist. The Sandgate Clinic recommend that Acupuncture is combined with osteopathy as this is a modern and effective way to treat many conditions. Conditions that can benefit from acupuncture include:

• Joint and muscle aches
• Migraines
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
• Stress and anxiety

It has been demonstrated that acupuncture causes the release of natural painkillers called endorphins, this improves the balance of energy (your Qi), and improves health.

Health and safety guidelines are strictly adhered to by the acupuncturist at this Folkestone acupuncture clinic. All of their needles are disposable and only used the once. If you have a fear of needles, and who doesn't, then be reassured. The needles used in acupuncture are particularly fine (about the diameter of a human hair). The most you will feel is a tingle and this shows that the acupuncture is having an effect.

At The Sandgate Clinic in Folkestone you can also receive osteopathy ( please click here for details), massage and hot stone therapy (please click here for details) and a range of other holistic complementary therapies.
