Our qi (pronounced 'chee') or life-force flows through our body in a complex web of invisible channels known as meridians. Practitioners in ancient China identified places on the meridians where qi gathers or comes closer to the skin.

The body has over 365 of these places known as points. These points are where the qi is most easily accessible and where it can be influenced with acupuncture needles.

Through skilful application blockages can be removed, balance can be restored and our energy can be renewed.

Qi is subtle and insubstantial, it cannot be seen or weighed, but it's effects on our health, mood and well-being are undeniable. 🙂

Looking up into these trees reaching for the sun, waves and bird song in the background, inspired me to think about the new year ahead. What am I striving for? What am I reaching towards?

In our fast, driven culture it is so essential to seek moments of quiet and solitude. In the silence we can reconnect with a deeper, more holistic way of being.

In the treatment room, as in the forest, it is often in the periods of silence that the deepest healing takes place.

In these hectic times where we rush from one task to another, busy and stressed, it's so important to take the time to press pause and appreciate what we have.

One of my favourite acupuncture points is called Amidst Elegance which lies near the end of the Kidney meridian at the top of the chest.

Needling this point helps us to breathe more deeply, to release sadness and to open up to inspiration and light. It allows us to fully appreciate our life and to dwell amidst elegance.

Acupuncture can be surprisingly effective in treating anxiety and other mental health issues. A patient of mine experienced this after a few treatments:
"I had a fascinating course of treatments tailored to my needs and wishes with Robert which have had a strong, positive impact on my mental health and spirit."
"I have felt a shift in many ways. After the course I have felt a deep inner strength and resilience that I haven't felt in a long time."

People often react to the mention of acupuncture needles with fear and apprehension. There is nothing to be fearful about as they are so much finer than the needles we are used to.
A hypodermic needle needs to be hollow to allow fluids to pass through it. The needle most commonly used for this is 0.8mm wide.
Acupuncture needles function to stimulate Qi or energy, they are not transferring anything. Consequently they are solid and a lot finer.
The most common needle size I use is 0.2mm wide. A quarter of the width of a hypodermic needle.
To put that in perspective, a human hair is approximately 0.1mm.

Happy Chinese New Year! 🎉
This is the year of the snake, a symbol of wisdom, adaptability and renewal.
Watching this gorgeous, sinuous snake weaving its way through the deep blue sky over Clifton Downs made me aware of how we all weave through our lives, adapting to new circumstances and occurrences.
A snake sheds its skin, demonstrating the powers of transformation and renewal that lie within each of us.
Wishing everyone wisdom, adaptability and renewal in the coming year. 🙏

In Five Element acupuncture we talk about the power of nature to heal. Today at Tyntesfield I stumbled across this poem by Hannah More which reminded me of the need to slow down and allow nature in, to let her elegant delight soothe our troubled body and agitated mind.
