23.01.2022 A form of heat therapy, moxa is mugwort, a dried and processed herb that can be applied indirectly or directly. Indirect ways include a bundle or a single stick of moxa burned near the surface of the skin, or the acupuncturist might use a small ball of moxa placed atop a needle. Direct forms use a much higher quality of moxa than that used for indirect applications and are applied with a range of techniques. Direct moxa techniques require further training and a clear ration...ale for its use. Moxibustion is used to promote the circulation of blood to the acupuncture points, muscle and nerve zones as well as areas of chronic pain or muscle tension. https://www.australianchinesemedicineunion.com.au/ . . . . . . . #TCM #acupunctureunion #australianchinesemedicine #Acupuncture #ACMU #chinesemedicine #alternativehealth #australianchinesemedicineunion #TCMpractitioners #acupunctureaustralia #moxa See more

13.01.2022 Choosing an acupuncture practitioner can be perplexing, especially if you have never received acupuncture treatment before. : :... Ensure you select a qualified, nationally accredited acupuncturist with formal qualifications. By law, all practising acupuncturists in Australia must be nationally accredited and carry malpractice insurance. : Check whether your acupuncture practitioner is well-versed in current research. Make sure your chosen acupuncture practitioner is up-to-date on the latest techniques and practices. Expertise relevant to your condition: While an acupuncturist will likely be able to treat most complaints, most acupuncturists have areas where they excel. Ideally, try to find an acupuncturist whose expertise aligns with your specific needs. : Ensure your acupuncturists’ treatment room is clean and healthy. Confirm that your acupuncturist uses sealed, single-use needles for their practice. This is a legal requirement in Australia. Once you’ve found a potential acupuncturist, it’s worthwhile to ask them the following questions to ensure they are credible and a good fit for you. Are you currently registered in Australia to practice acupuncture? What is your training? How long did you study for? How many times have you treated this particular condition? What is your area of expertise? Besides acupuncture, what other modalities or therapies do you use in cases such as mine? . . . . . . . . . #TCM #acupunctureaustralia #alternativehealth #wellness #chinesenedicineunion #australianchinesemedicineunion #acupuncturepractitioners #Acupuncture #ACMU #acupunctureunion

05.01.2022 Can I buy Chinese medicine at my local chemist? There maybe be formulations at your chemist labelled as "Chinese medicine", but a qualified Chinese Medicine practitioner will never use a one-size-fits-all for their patients. A fully qualified practitioner will prescribe a Chinese herbal formula uniquely formulated for your condition. The herbal formula is also adjusted and altered during the recovery phase until the desired health result is achieved. A lot of diseases or illn...esses present with a core set of recognisable indications and symptoms, the original presentation of a particular disease or illness may differ from person to person. For this reason, people with similar health conditions may be provided with considerably different Chinese herbal medicine prescriptions. https://www.australianchinesemedicineunion.com.au/ . . . #wellness #australianchinesemedicine #acupuncturepractitioners #acupunctureunion #chinesemedicineunion #Acupuncture #alternativehealth #chinesemedicine #ACMU #acupuncturehistory
