Classical five element acupuncture

Classical Five Element Acupuncture is known as the ‘Acupuncture of Princes’, developed thousands of years ago in China from where it spread far and wide. Throughout the centuries it has helped to maintain the health and well-being of millions of people around the world. A diagnosis at the Urban Retreat involves an exploration of your constitutional and emotional makeup, weaknesses and strengths. At the initial consultation, you will be asked to identify your main complaint and full health history. The resulting treatment is based consequently on your individual needs, taking into consideration, age, symptoms, general constitution and life circumstances. The treatment takes you from pathology to health, through to your full potential. A typical course of treatment would be four initial weekly treatments followed by fortnightly intervals, perhaps proceeding to a monthly appointment basis with an aim to treat occasionally thereafter. Some conditions may take longer to treat and this will be explained at diagnosis. An initial consultation will helps us get to know you, and devise a treatment plan with a realistic goal. An appropriate time scale and schedule will be drawn up with you to keep you in control of your own expectations and progress.
