A normal day in a paediatric clinic 🤩

Fabi Acupuncture is now closed until 2nd January 2025✨

✨ Reflections on 2024 ✨

💫 A year of professional achievements

Over the year, Fabi Acupuncture welcomed so many new lovely patients, including babies, children and teenagers. The clinic was busier than ever 🙌🏻

I thoroughly enjoyed integrating Functional Medicine into Fabi Acupuncture as I believe it honed my diagnostic abilities and expanded my understanding of patient care 💫

By reflecting on success stories, I believe that my work made a significant positive change in so many lives, and for that, I am very grateful for the trust that so many people placed in me ❤️

Fabi Acupuncture has received so many heart-warming reviews which reminded me of my purpose, especially when I came across some challenging cases✨

, the project that support so many children and their families had another fruitful year guiding children to a healthier and brighter future 💫

🤍 A year of personal loss

This year has brought a profound change with the passing of my mum. It was heart breaking to see her slipping away from the people who loved her. Her absence has left an indelible void in my life and I will be eternally grateful to her for who I am 🤍❤️

✨I am ready for 2025 ✨

I would like to express my gratitude for all your support this year. Thank-you 💕

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and I Happy New Year 🎄🎉

Lots of love, Fabi ❤️

Acupuncture training demands considerable commitment and therefore it is very important to choose a practitioner who have gained the qualification in an accredited course that embodies the critical awareness, academic rigour and clinical practice standards.

An interesting article about this silent disease that women over 40 should be aware of and discuss it with their GP’s.

I found out quite early in my menopause journey that I have osteoporosis and getting answers about this condition that is often overlooked by so many doctors has not been easy.

If you are over 50, get your bones checked 🦴

Fifteen months, 11 doctors and over a dozen tests and scans later, I still have no idea how to treat it

Last weekend I completed the second part of the “Art of Shonishin” course with the inspirational Thomas Wernicke.

Thomas once again flew to the U.K from Germany to share with us his knowledge of this gentle, non-invasive method for treating children 🧒🏼 👧🏽👶🏻

I am now a Certified Shonishin Acupuncturist 🎌

Since this certification is recognised by the Japanese Society for Paediatric Acupuncture, the certification ceremony had to be in a Japanese style 🇯🇵☺️

Is Acupuncture safe for babies? 👶🏻

Acupuncture, when performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner who specialises in paediatric acupuncture, is safe and can help babies with different issues, such as:

*Colic and digestive problems
*Sleep disturbance
*Eczema

Acupuncture for babies is a gentle treatment involving very fine needles or no needles at all!

There are many non-needle techniques such as acupressure and massage that can be very effective in babies ☺️

Acupuncture and chronic pain.

⚡️Traditional acupuncture can work for anyone, at any stage of life. Why not talk to a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) about how they can treat you and your whole body, not just your symptoms.

📋BAcC Members are recognised by over 20 different private health providers.

🥼Acupuncture on the NHS is recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) for managing chronic pain, migraines and
headaches. The Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) also recommends acupuncture for chronic pain, including lower back pain and knee pain.

The aim of the British Acupuncture Council is to establish the highest standards of professional practice for the traditional acupuncture profession in the UK.

We are committed to ensuring all patients receive the highest standard of professional care during their acupuncture treatment. Visit our website to find your local highly trained practitioner.

This is a question I get asked a lot!!

There is no definite answer to it, but we always explain that acupuncture is not a “one and done” type of treatment.

With its holistic approach to health and aiming for long-term benefits; acupuncture usually requires a course of treatments prior to noticing an improvement, but how many? 🤔

The number and frequency of treatments will depend on how chronic or acute the condition is. Treatments are tailored to adapt to health changing conditions and will vary from person to person.

✨ Once symptoms improve, less treatments will be required, moving from weekly or fortnightly to monthly sessions with the aim to maintain health and wellbeing ✨

Welcome 2024!!

I am setting off on a new adventure in my career by integrating Functional Medicine in my Acupuncture Practice 💫

✨ What is Functional Medicine?

Functional Medicine is a model of care that accounts for each patient’s individual history, lifestyle, and genetic makeup using the latest medical research.

It has a forward-thinking approach to health. It treats patients as a whole person by looking into the root of the causes of their imbalances and engaging with them to discover ways to return to optimal health 🧘‍♀️

☯️ What is the connection between Chinese Medicine and Functional Medicine?

While Chinese medicine and Functional medicine have different cultural and historical roots, they share common principles in approaching health holistically:

✨By integrating the Body-Mind-Spirit aspects of health.

✨By looking to address the root cause of illness instead of merely treating symptoms.

✨By focusing on prevention to optimize health and wellbeing.

✨ By providing individualized and personalized care.

📚Upon completion of the course “Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice”, I will be able to apply key elements of the functional medicine model in my Acupuncture practice.

I can’t wait to combine the expertise of the Eastern and Western medicines and help more people to achieve optimal health 🤩
