Five Element Acupuncture is rooted in ancient Daoist philosophy, emphasising harmony with nature’s rhythms. By balancing the five elemental energies—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—it restores the flow of Qi, promoting health and harmony in body, mind, and spirit.
Charlotte Breadmore - Five Element Acupuncture
As individuals our symptoms may be similar to others, but the underlying cause is often unique to us. Five Element Theory, rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, recognises this by identifying each person’s Causative Factor (CF) — the primary elemental imbalance affecting their physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Through careful diagnosis, including pulse reading, observation, and discussion, we determine your CF and tailor acupuncture treatments to restore harmony. This personalised approach addresses not just symptoms but the root cause, restoring overall wellbeing that lasts.
Treatments
Initial consultations last up to 90 minutes and include a full diagnosis and initial clearing treatment. The number of treatments varies depending on the individual, and how their body responds. In general, an initial course of 4-6 weekly treatments is recommended to assess progress and establish balance.
