What is Japanese Acupuncture
Japanese Acupuncture is a traditional healing modality that has been practised for centuries. It is a refined and specialised form of Acupuncture that focuses on precise needling techniques and gentle treatment approaches. Japanese Acupuncture incorporates elements from both traditional Chinese medicine and unique Japanese philosophies, resulting in its distinctive style.
One of the defining characteristics of Japanese Acupuncture is its emphasis on palpation or the art of feeling the body’s energy and responding to its subtle changes. Practitioners trained in Japanese Acupuncture pay close attention to the pulse, abdomen and other areas to gather diagnostic information and tailor their treatments accordingly. This hands-on approach allows for a deeper understanding of the body’s condition and promotes personalised care.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Needles used in Japanese Acupuncture are generally thinner and more flexible compared to those used in other styles. They are often inserted superficially and gently, focusing on the precise location of the body’s meridians or energy channels. The intention is to stimulate the flow of Qi, the vital life force, and restore balance within the body.
Japanese Acupuncture also incorporates various techniques beyond needle insertion. Moxibustion is the burning of a dried herb called mugwort near specific acupuncture points to warm and invigorate the body’s energy. Other tools like non-insertive needle techniques, and specialised massage techniques and cupping can be used to achieve the required outcome for the health of the patient.
