Seasonal Acupuncture: 30€, 30min

  • Based on the 24 solar seasons (sub-seasons) derived from ancient Chinese agriculture and astrology, as well as the Wu Yun Liu Qi described in the Huang Di Nei Jing – Suwen (chapters 66-74). This practice is preventative, promotes general well-being, helps you stay attuned to the current season, and prepares you for the next one(s). 
  • Think of it like planting tulip bulbs in November: there are specific acupuncture points that need to be punctured at exact moments in time. The points chosen are based strictly on the precise moment of your consultation, independently of your medical history. Because these points are applicable to anyone, they vary every 2 hours—always taking into consideration the exact day, month, and year of your visit.

During your personalized consultation, I may suggest the best AVEA longevity supplements. You can also take their online test here (English only). I often also recommend the Muchin chinese Masterblends developed by flemish and chinese physicians. You can visit their website here: www.muchin.eu

Holistic Healing for a Healthier You

Based on your specific requests and needs, a session will usually combine several of the following healing methods;

Acupuncture

Inserting and manipulating hair-thin needles in the skin. None of the techniques described here are painful, but a pinch or slight temporary discomfort can be felt.

Moxibustion

Heating acupuncture points or greater areas of the body with mugwort (artemisia vulgaris).

Masseuse doing massage to client

Massage

When pain is the main symptom, a short massage rounds up the session harmoniously.

Massotherapist giving upper back hot compress massage to patient

Hot compresses

For back pain, hot compresses with medicinal herbs release the tension and harmonize the tissues.

Magnetic auriculotherapy ear jewelry for smoking cessation,

Auricular therapy

Small needles or seeds are applied to the ear for you to stimulate for several days after our session – especially used for “internal” diseases (hormonal, stress, fatigue, …)

Fire cupping cups on back of female patient in Acupuncture therapy

Cupping

Suction is applied to acupuncture point areas – especially along the spine (intervertebral foramen, where the nerves start diverging from the spinal canal) – to release blockages. Cupping can also be used for other indications, like breaking down fatty tissue.

Woman during Chinese traditional massage - Gua Sha

Gua Sha

Scraping the skin with a flat tool, to release an area, usually neck and upper back, and removing a recent condition like flu or torticollis (“external” diseases).

Sea salt with herbs

Herbs and minerals prescription

At an additional cost, take in herbs to increase the therapeutic effectiveness. Herbs are provided by Kaiser Herbs or Muchin, companies with the highest quality standards (also suitable for children). I also recommend AVEA supplements (based on modern science and understanding of physiology).

Exercices for at Home

Oftentimes, your symptoms are related to your posture. Opening up your chest, bending your knees, walking tall, or strengthening your muscles are important aspects of your healing journey.
