Acupuncture has been practiced for over
5,000 thousand years and is one of the oldest forms of healing. The overall aim is to restore the body's own natural equilibrium
It is based on universal laws that reflect the flow of energy in nature as well as in the
body.
Acupuncture balances your energy by stimulating the flow of energy and removing blockages with the insertion
of fine, sterile needles into acupuncture points on your body.
By treating the root of your condition all symptoms will
be alleviated, your immune system will be strengthened and your natural vitality will be restored.

“I
came to Ele for acupuncture after recently giving birth to my first baby. I was overwhelmed with this new experience, feeling
emotionally and physically exhausted. I was hoping that acupuncture would help me regain some balance.
To my surprise
the treatment not only helped to balance my emotions, but it also released tightness and tension in my back muscles, and improved
my posture. The front of my body, which had felt heavy and collapsing due to breastfeeding, with weakening belly muscles,
somehow became lighter and more integrated with the back of my body. I felt it help to restore me to my original body shape,
before giving birth.
I was amazed to see that such tight and achy back muscles can soften and relax with Ele's
gentle treatment! What’s more, it balanced the whole body, emotions and mind. It made me feel like 'coming home
to my self'.”
