Eden Herbs acupuncture clinic

Our holistic approach
The Chinese theory of health diagnosis is very different to a Western approach and is founded on the principles of balancing Yin and Yang and establishing a smooth flow of Qi and blood around the body and organs. Illness occurs when there is an imbalance of Yin and Yang and stagnation of Qi and/or blood.
Many factors can contribute to this imbalance, including stress and emotions. Eden Herbs aims to focus on the entire mind and body, seeking a combination of treatments to address these emotional and physical ailments.

Gentle Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine that has been practised in the Far East for thousands of years. This ancient Chinese medicine-based approach to treating a variety of conditions by triggering specific points on the skin with thin needles to stimulate the body’s own healing response and help restore its natural balance. Acupuncture is a fantastic option to treat everything from aching muscles to everyday stress and anxiety.
Traditional Chinese Medicine
TCM has been used to diagnose, treat, and prevent illnesses for more than 5,000 years. The key principles are the balance of Yin and Yang, and the flow of energy known as Chi. Any disharmony of Yin and Yang or Chi flow blockage will lead to illness or imbalances in the body. Our goal is to help you restore this imbalance so your body can again function as it should.
Hot Cupping
Cupping is an ancient therapy that uses cups placed on your back to create negative pressure, allowing blood and Qi energy to flow much more freely through your body than previously. This non-invasive treatment is great for improving the health of your vital organs and reducing inflammation. Consider it a one-stop anti-inflammatory treatment for all your aches and pains.
Deep Tissue Chinese Massage Therapy
If you’re suffering from tension and body aches, our deep tissue Chinese massage can help! Our therapists apply slow, forceful strokes that help release knots and strains in the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue. This helps ease tension, increase the range of motion, and relieve chronic pain.

“The body is to nature as a violin is to an orchestra. The strings are to a violin as the organs are to the body. For the orchestra to play in harmony, all the instruments must be tuned to each other. If a single instrument is out of tune, the whole sound is dissonancy rather than harmony.”
– Beinfield and Korngold
