Chronic pain often points to an imbalance in your body's energy flow, not just a physical injury.

When energy (qi) is blocked or depleted, your body struggles to heal, and pain can persist or worsen. Restoring this balance is key to managing ongoing discomfort.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we use targeted acupuncture techniques—working both locally and at distant points—to encourage smooth energy circulation. This approach helps reduce inflammation, ease muscle tension, and support your body's natural recovery.

If chronic pain is holding you back, consider a treatment plan that addresses energy balance alongside physical symptoms. It's a different way to support your wellbeing.

Your lifestyle choices have a powerful impact on your overall well-being.

Small adjustments — like improving sleep habits, managing stress, and balancing activity with rest — can improve the benefits you get from acupuncture and Chinese Medicine treatments.

This approach supports your body's natural rhythm and encourages better energy flow, helping you feel more balanced and resilient.

Take control of your health by making mindful lifestyle changes alongside your treatment plan. Contact us to learn how we can support you.

Chronic pain often isn't just about the spot that hurts—it's about what's happening beneath the surface.

Traditional Chinese Medicine looks beyond symptoms to find the root causes of pain, focusing on energy flow and imbalances that affect the whole body. For example, knee pain linked to repetitive strain might relate to disruptions in the Liver channel, which we treat by targeting related areas like the elbow or Large Intestine channel to restore balance.

This approach allows us to use acupuncture points away from the painful site, reducing inflammation and improving circulation without aggravating the area. It's a method grounded in careful diagnosis and personalised treatment.

If you're living with persistent pain and want a treatment that addresses more than just the symptoms, contact us to discuss how Traditional Chinese Medicine could support your recovery and wellbeing.

Balancing your body's energy plays an important role in recovering from sports injuries.

When energy, or qi, flows smoothly, it supports circulation and reduces muscle tension. This creates the right environment for the body to repair itself naturally.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we use acupuncture and cupping to encourage this balance. Treatments target the areas affected by injury, helping to improve range of motion and speed up recovery.

If you're recovering from a sports injury, consider how restoring your body's energy flow might support your healing process. Contact us to discuss a tailored approach that complements your recovery.

Stress is a common challenge today, but its roots go back thousands of years. Traditional Chinese Medicine offers practical ways to help manage stress by restoring balance to your body's energy.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we combine acupuncture, cupping, and herbal remedies to support your body's natural ability to relax and recover. These treatments can ease muscle tightness, calm the nervous system, and improve sleep.

Clients often see good results when these therapies are paired with practical lifestyle changes. If stress is impacting your wellbeing, consider a personalised approach that addresses the whole person, not just the symptoms.

Emotional wellbeing and physical pain are more connected than most people realise.

Stress, anxiety and unresolved emotions can tighten muscles, reduce blood flow and increase pain sensitivity.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we address these hidden emotional factors alongside physical symptoms. This combined approach helps many clients find relief and restore balance.

If you're dealing with ongoing pain, consider how your emotional health might be affecting your body's response. Caring for both can support better recovery and wellbeing.

Feeling stressed often means your body's energy, or qi, is out of balance. When qi flows unevenly, tension builds up, making it harder to relax and recover.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we use acupuncture and related therapies to help regulate this energy flow. This supports your nervous system and encourages your body to settle into a calmer state.

Balancing qi is not about immediate results. It's about steady support that helps your body manage stress more effectively over time.

If stress feels overwhelming, consider a treatment plan tailored to your needs. Balancing your body's energy can be a key step towards feeling more grounded and resilient.

Making lifestyle changes is an important part of your healing process—not just the treatments you receive.

At JG Alternative Healthcare, we see clients make more consistent progress when they combine acupuncture and Chinese Medicine with practical habits like better sleep, balanced nutrition, and managing stress.

Why does this matter?
- Treatments address symptoms and improve circulation.
- Lifestyle changes support the body’s natural recovery and energy balance.
- Together, they build a stronger foundation for lasting wellbeing.

For example, athletes recovering from injuries often see faster results when they adjust their training routines and rest patterns alongside treatment.

To support your healing effectively, consider small but meaningful changes in your daily habits that complement your care.

Your health process is more than just appointments—it’s about what you do every day to care for your body.
