25.01.2022 Did you know that ACUPUNCTURE AWARENESS DAY was last Monday? It was a day to celebrate acupuncture! If you had to pick only one thing you love about acupuncture, what would it be?

23.01.2022 Transformational Forgiveness is something that is explored in the book that I am currenlty reading called "Think like a Monk". Transformational Forgiveness is forgiveness in the mode of goodness, where we find the strength and calmness to forgive without expecting an apology or anything else in return.

23.01.2022 UGWA 2021 - IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU The Ultimate Girls Week Away Retreats are for women to just be, to rest, to laugh, to sleep, to play and everything in between - designed for women by women who understand. UGWA 2021 is for you if...... If you have forgotten who you are - who you were born to be, and what you are here to do. If you often put other people's priorities before your own. If you care too much, think too long and wonder what else is out there. If you yearn to feel deep connections to others. During this retreat there will be the sharing of Wisdom from the Stage, Workshops, Ultimate Sister Circles where you will come together with a small group of women to share your experience with, and wonderfully crafted cuisine, and so much more. You will have time in the Ultimate Healing Hub, to indulge in a massage in the Spa, and to have some Signature Perfume made just for you.

10.01.2022 A retreat is so much more than a holiday. A holiday tends to be an external experience - a time to relax, explore, experience new cultures, and have some downtime. By contrast, a retreat tends to be more of an internal experience. A retreat offers a safe space filled with like-minded people in which you can ask some serious questions about your life. It’s a time to get real with yourself, be honest about what may be holding you back, what your limitations and your fears are, ...and how you can do things differently to benefit you greater. When a group of women come together in this spirit of self-enquiry, a unique kind of magic starts to happen. The Ultimate Girls Week Away retreat is a trip for change, with a little bit of holiday thrown in, because we all need our downtime too. You can find out all the details about the Ultimate Girls Week Away here https://www.ultimategirlsweekaway.com/ #UGWA2021

09.01.2022 Each year I have the unprecedented pleasure of announcing who our Wisdom Keepers are at UGWA - earlier this year I was excited to announce that Gabrielle Bernst...ein and SARK would be joining us in Vietnam. With all the goings-on that 2020 has brought us we had to move the event to Lorne, Victoria, and with that came the challenge to find someone who is exactly the right fit for the magic of this event. She is a woman who knows how to dream big, share her wisdom and explore the possibilities of living life to the fullest, she is disruptive, lives a life full of purpose, and wants you to be living a life that you love. She was an obvious choice and are so thrilled that she said YES!!!!! We are proud to announce that LISA MESSENGER will be joining us from the main stage in Lorne and will entice you to look further and dream bigger, to live your life to the fullest in a room of amazing women who have taken the plunge just like you.

05.01.2022 Chinese massage, or tuina, is a style of massage used traditionally in China with defined massage techniques to promote the flow of Qi and Blood in the meridians. Traditionally, this was thought to be beneficial to overall health. Chinese massage techniques include massage of the meridians, acupressure, some deep tissue and relaxation techniques. This massage style has a nice flow to it and will generally leave you feeling like you’ve had a good work out but are also very relaxed.

02.01.2022 Electro-acupuncture is very similar to traditional acupuncture with the addition of a gentle current running through the needles a bit like that of a TENS machine. The sensation of electro-acupuncture is similar to the sensations of traditional acupuncture however a pulsing sensation will remain constant throughout your treatment. Most people find that once they adjust to the sensation it is quite a comforting sensation. Your acupuncturist will carefully select when electro-a...cupuncture is most likely to benefit you and which acupuncture points it will be most effective on. Electro-acupuncture has been the subject of many research studies with positive effects found for relieving symptoms of conditions such as functional constipation, knee osteoarthritis and primary dysmenorrhoea (period pain).

01.01.2022 At Safflower Clinic, we often get asked ‘How big are the needles?’ and ‘Will it hurt?’ As shown in the above image, acupuncture needles are very fine and are generally made from stainless steel. This makes them flexible and allows us to manipulate them when they are under the skin. Shorter needles are often used near the face, while longer needles are used on areas of the body that have thicker tissues. The needles are only used once and are disposed of after usage.... The acupuncture needles are inserted very carefully into meridians or acupoints. When they penetrate the skin, it is not a painful sensation but more of a small prick. Most often though with our skill, you may have little or no awareness of the needles being inserted. Once the needles are inserted and we begin to work with them, you may feel a little numbness, tingling, heat, or energy around the site of the insertion. You will be aware that the needles, but the sensation is more like slight discomfort than pain. If you would like to know more about the benefits of acupuncture, and to book an appointment, please visit our website here www.safflowerclinic.com.au
