Tiredness

 

Are you well?

This is a good question you ask. What is well or wellness? Most people think they are well, healthy, and eating healthy. However, with a few question, we could find some odds in the health and well-being.  Then how can we be well? The best answer is that you eat well, sleep well, poop well. In modern society, we have too many things to take care, too busy with life. We cannot rest and worry a lot. All these make us tired and disturb our well-being. 

 

How can we improve our life and well-being

It is easy to say things then do things. To have a good life and well-being. you should eat well, sleep well, exercise well. Even though you do eat well, sleep well, and exercise well, you won't be 100% well because we are alive. Our health is not stay there forever. We are affected by outside natures as well as inside emotions.

 

How can Acupuncture help well-being and fatigue.

The main effect of Acupuncture is moving Energy (氣, 기, Chi, Qi) and blood. Energy(氣) goes first then blood follows, and blood nourishes Energy(氣) in human body.  In the Traditional Eastern Medicine, Energy(氣) and blood circulate well in your body, you are healthy and you do not have any pain in your body. 

Therefore, moving Energy(氣) and blood well in our body is well-being, and it helps our fatigue1

 

How often do we need get acupuncture?

Standard acupuncture session is once in 3 days depending on the conditions, written ancient acupuncture book (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic). In Australia, weekly bases treatment can be ideal. For general well-being and fatigue treatment, we recommend 12 weeks treatment which changes your Energy(氣) and blood.  You might have once a year for 12 weeks treatment for your general well-being. 

Acupuncture treatment is well-know for prevention. So your Energy(氣) and blood move freely, then you won't have serious diseases because we believe stasis of Energy(氣) and blood causes all the issues in our body.
