FACIAL ENHANCEMENT ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture has been around for thousands of years and although relatively new to the west the Chinese have been using points on the face to help combat the signs of ageing and to help with various skin conditions for many years. It was in use as early as the Sung Dynasty (960AD - 1070AD) when the Empress and Emperor's concubines Cosmetic Acupuncture.
Generally in today's society we all have many issues involving families or
careers that may cause
us stress and emotional hurt.
This is a part of life
and it is impossible to eradicate these issues totally. What we can do here is
to help
the body, mind and spirit to cope with these highs and lows of life
and maintain a more even balance.
We could look at the family car as an example; many of us use the car daily and rely on it to start every time and get us to where we want to go. What happens, however, when we forget to service the car, or we forget to maintain the oil levels? Of course it breaks down and everything grinds to a halt.
We would not expect to run the family car on empty for long without it letting us down. Although, we are constantly running ourselves on empty and are then surprised when things start to give up on us and let us down.
With Facial Enhancement Acupuncture we will help improve those wrinkles and we will also help to eradicate those laughter lines around the eyes, but what we will also do is to help the patient's body, mind and spirit in a way that will strengthen their total well being.
THE RESULTS
A Facial Enhancement Acupuncture treatment will obviously concentrate on points and muscles of the face in order to improve elasticity of the skin and general overall appearance. During the treatment the practitioner will also needle constitutional points on the patient's legs, arms and body, these are the points that will help to balance and harmonise the patient's inner elements.
Studies published in the International Journal of Clinical Acupuncture in 1996 showed that of 300 people who received Facial Acupuncture, 90% demonstrated marked results after only their first treatment.
Over the course of treatments the patient can not only expect to be looking more radiant, but they will also start to feel more at balance and happy in themselves. The Irish Times recently acclaimed this treatment as:
"...a viable alternative to cosmetic surgery and the effects can run much deeper than simply improving appearances."
When the patient feels more in control of their body, mind and spirit they can then start to address other issues in their lives. These may be things to do with exercise or lifestyle, or maybe they would like to stop smoking, or loose some weight. These are all things that we can achieve when we are in balance and feeling good about ourselves, once you start to feel like this, you will be surprised how good you think you look as well. This can be achieved by Facial Enhancement Acupuncture bringing a person's natural beauty to the surface.
