Acupuncture

Conducted by Dr Heli Ots, your treatment will start with a consultation to check your general state of health. Fine needles are then inserted in 12 to 15 points around the body to stimulate or suppress the flow of ‘Chi’. Acupuncture aims to restore the balance of Chi energy – a state of equilibrium when Yin and Yang are in harmony. Most people find acupuncture a pleasant and deeply relaxing experience. There should be no pain during the insertion of the needles. When the needles are inserted you may feel a slight tingling sensation, this indicates that the treatment is beginning to have some effect.

Acupuncture may relieve pain and suppress cravings and is widely used for stress relief. This is a 55 minute treatment.

Symptoms of illness are seen by homeopaths as signs that the body is using its natural powers of self-healing to fight back. Homeopathic treatment seeks to stimulate this self-healing process rather than to suppress symptoms.

Food Sensitivity Test and Nutritional Consultation

Millions of people suffer from food sensitivity/intolerance of' some type, leading to years of ill health. Many go from doctor to doctor in an effort to solve the problem without any success.

Food intolerances usually manifest themselves within 1-72 hours of eating. There is not a proven immune response in this type of reaction and it can be very difficult to pinpoint exactly when intolerance to a certain food began. For many people the problems start with a headache or poor digestion, bloating, gas and pain. Slowly over the years health problems become worse and new symptoms will follow. These symptoms can fluctuate from day to day but generally sufferers feel constantly tired, are prone to infections and may even suffer from depression.

This simple non-invasive painless Food Intolerance Test and Nutritional Consultation with Dr Heli Ots is a valuable tool in helping you detect the causes of your condition and so aim to improve your immune system. This test cannot replace proper medical check up or examination. This is a 50 minute treatment.

Naturopathic Consultation

Naturopathy is a method of curing disease by releasing inner vitality and allowing the body to heal itself. By asking detailed questions about the patient’s lifestyle and medical history, the naturopath aims to treat the causes of illness, not just the symptoms.

The patient’s health is assessed with a wide range of tailor-made tests to build up a complete picture of the condition of the mind and body.

This method involves the use of natural approaches, such as vitamin-mineral therapy, Bach flower therapy, diet advice, homeopathy and herbal medicine according to certain established principles. For example, herbs may be used to stimulate the body into action – elimination of toxins or aid in nutrition. Homeopathy may be used to stimulate the work of the specific organ or organ systems. Vitamins and minerals are prescribed to combat specific deficiencies.

We really are what we eat and drink what we feel and think, therefore, a good health can only be maintained by the clever co-ordination of our mind and body. This is a 50 minute treatment.
