Stamford Brook Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a system of healing refined over 3,000 years of clinical experience as part of the traditional medicine of China, Japan and other Eastern countries.

In the West, acupuncture is often thought of as curing headaches and relieving pain but this is a very limited view of its true effect. Conditions which can be helped by acupuncture include:

. Many musculo skeletal problems including backache, sciatica, muscular
aches and strains, arthritis, neck problems, sports injuries, tendonitis,
bursitis
. Menstrual problems including PMT, painful, irregular or heavy periods

West London Chriopractic Clinics
Chiropractors specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions which are due to mechanical dysfunction of the joints, especially those of the spine, and their effects on the nervous system. Chiropractors use their hands to adjust the joints of your spine and other areas of the body where signs of restrictions in movement are found. This improves mobility and relieves pain. Poor, inadequate or incorrect function of the spine can cause irritation of the nerves that control your posture and movement. By adjusting joints, chiropractors stimulate the joint movement receptors affecting the way your nervous system works.

Herbal Medicine is the oldest system of medicine in the world, and is the use of plant remedies in the treatment of disease. Modern herbal medicine, known as Phytotherapy, combines an increasingly established scientific basis for treatment with an ancient art of healing several thousand years old.

Most plant medicines can be used safely alongside most other conventional medicines and therapies. They are usually dispensed in convenient liquid form (tinctures), according to individual patient needs. Dry herbs such as teas, Creams and lotions may also be prescribed when required.

West London Osteopathy
Osteopathy is a system of medicine based on the theory that disturbances in the musculoskeletal system affect other bodily parts and cause many disorders that can be corrected by various manipulative techniques. Correcting mechanical imbalances in the bodily structures is achieved by restoring, maintaining and improving the harmonious working of the nervous and musculo-skeletal systems.

An osteopath will take time to find out about your medical history as well as asking about your lifestyle and diet. Osteopaths have a trained sense of touch and will use their hands to find abnormalities in the structure of your body to decide what kind of osteopathy you will need. Sometimes they may also take an X-ray or blood test to fully diagnose a problem.

Lisa Martin Reflexology
Reflexology is a non-invasive holistic therapy. It endeavours to treat the body, mind and spirit as a cohesive system by getting to the cause of the disease, not just the symptoms. In our everyday lives, stress and tension can cause energy blockages and lower the body's resistance to illness. Stimulation of specific areas on the hands and the feet can help strengthen and balance the energy flow by releasing these blockages therefore encouraging the body to heal itself and promote relaxation.

Reflexology can help many conditions including stress, headaches, migraines, hormonal imbalances, back problems, infertility, PCOS, digestive problems, arthritis and circulatory problems.
