When Illness Interrupts a busy Life

​When illness interrupts a busy life, a common response is ‘I haven’t got time for this’; we just want the pain or discomfort to go away and quickly so we can get everything done.  It’s tempting to reach for medications to suppress whatever symptoms are being experienced.  But commonly, when the medication is stopped, the symptoms return, which means the underlying cause was not addressed.
 
During the consultation with a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the quality of the pulse, the appearance of the tongue and a series of questions assist the practitioner to take a holistic approach, by identifying the underlying cause. 

For example, if you experience indigestion and bloating after the eating, the consultation may reveal a stressful job or life situation.   The theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine is that stress affects the liver, which in turn affects the stomach and spleen, creating the resulting indigestion and bloating.  Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs are used, with the aim of bringing the liver (the underlying cause) into balance.  It would then be usual to see the symptoms of indigestion and bloating resolve, making eating a pleasant experience again.

Sometimes we Feel Like the Gnarly Tree

8/8/2017

You may have noticed some new photographic art on our practice walls.  These beautiful photographs have been taken by a talented photographer, (Mayu Kataoka), and capture the natural beauty and colour of some of the world’s plants and trees. 

Take a closer look at the photograph in the reception area and you’ll see two trees standing side by side.  One shows a gnarly and twisted trunk and the other stands smooth and straight.  All of us sometimes feel like the gnarly tree, muscles knotted and tight, binding our bodies in an uncomfortable way, creating back pain, neck pain and muscular tension..  At Well-Balanced Healthcare's Mosman clinic, we use osteopathy, acupuncture and remedial massage to relieve those knots, enabling relief from tightness, freedom of movement and greater peace of mind.
