Our members are registered Health Practitioners under the HPCA Act Acupuncture NZ was first established in 1976 by a group of eight practitioners who sought to provide acupuncture treatment to any New Zealander who wished to look beyond the orthodox medical model. The first President of NZRA was WIlliam Wong Doo. The organisation has grown and developed over the years and now has more than 600 members throughout the country. Acupuncture NZ members have been recognised as ACC Treatment Providers since 1990. Go to our website to find a practitioner near you.

September is Gynaecological Cancer awareness month. Every year approximately 1000 New Zealanders are diagnosed with one of the five types of Gynaecological Cancers, and currently there is only screening for Cervical cancer.

That is why so it's important to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms . Early detection and diagnosis is vital. www.cancer.org.nz/cancer/types-of-cancer/gynaecological-cancers/, ovariancancerfoundation.org.nz/gynaecological-cancer-awareness-month/

For those undergoing treatment, Acupuncture can may provide relief for chemotherapy-induced and post-op nausea, pain, fatigue, insomnia, hot flashes, lymphoedema, and chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. Acupuncture is considered a safe therapy for cancer patients when practiced by qualified practitioners.

Celebrate te reo Māori Kūki 'Airani Cook Island Maori Language week! Here are a few phrases you can try out this week.

Te Reo Māori Kūki 'Airani does not have a word for Acupuncture, but you could say:

Pūnou ngā ngira ki ngā vā I roto I te tinana, Kia whāngai I te ōranga.

Which means in Te Reo Papa'a (english): Pe*****te needles into the body's places, to nourish the wellbeing 🇨🇰❤

Happy National Avocado Day!

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), avocado has a slightly cooling effect and is valued for its ability to nourish the blood and replenish yin. It is also known to moisten the lungs, hydrate the skin, and support healthy digestion by lubricating the intestines.

Avocado is believed to aid in the treatment of various conditions while enhancing energy levels and contributing to overall balance and wellbeing🥑
