Tiny pin, big support! 🌿

In this video, Paul is placing a leave-in acupuncture pin — these are super small needles that can stay in for a few days to provide ongoing support. This particular placement is often used for headaches or migraines, helping to calm tension and promote balance even after you leave the clinic!

Your treatment plan will always be tailored to your needs, but leave-in pins are just one of the tools we can use to extend the benefits between sessions 🌸😊

Struggling with jaw tension or TMJ pain? 😬

Here’s a look at one of the acupuncture point placements we may use to support the jaw and surrounding muscles. By calming inflammation, improving circulation, and reducing tension, these treatments can help bring relief and support better function.

Every treatment is customised to your body, so your points may look slightly different — this is just one example of what we may use in clinic! 🌸

Ever tried cupping? 🐙

Cupping therapy is one of our favourite tools to release tight muscles, ease tension, and boost circulation — especially through the upper and lower back.

Those little marks left behind? That’s just stagnant blood and tension being drawn to the surface (and they fade within days!).

It’s deeply relaxing, surprisingly gentle, and often leaves you feeling lighter and freer through your whole body 🌸🧘🍃

Every treatment plan is personalised, so your points may look different depending on what your body needs 🌸♥️

“How many sessions will I need?”

One of our most common questions! The truth is — everyone is different. Some feel changes after 1–2 treatments, while others need more sessions to see lasting results. Acupuncture is cumulative, meaning each treatment builds on the last!

We’ll always tailor your plan to your needs and adjust as we go 🌿
