Helena Barker - Acupuncture & Naturopathy

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, perfect health is understood to be a perfect balance of Yin & Yang, necessary but opposing natural forces. The underlying principle behind TCM is that Qi or vital energy flows through our body in pathways or channels known as meridians. Pain or illness occurs when this Qi or vital energy is blocked and is unable to flow freely within these meridians, signifying that the body is out of balance.

Acupuncture & Naturopathy work to and maintain the body’s natural balance by stimulating its own healing response. The aim is to treat the whole person, so it can be effective for a wide range of problems — physical, mental and emotional.

I firmly believe in treating the ‘whole person’ by using a combination of natural healing techniques including nutrition, diet, lifestyle advice, flower remedies and tissue salts in conjunction with Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
