INTEGRATED MEDICINE
Neurological Healing with Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
Living with a neurological condition can be challenging, and at Sustain Health, we understand that every individual’s journey is unique. From the beginning, our focus has been on supporting individuals in managing neurological health through a holistic approach that includes Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. Our goal is to help foster confidence in the body’s ability to restore itself, offering a sense of renewed strength and hope through gentle, natural care.
Acupuncture is a non-invasive, natural way to support the body’s circulatory, neurological and nervous systems, helping to promote your own healing abilities. Our approach addresses the connection between our psychological health and our capacity to heal, especially with neurological conditions. At Sustain Health, we combine Neuro-Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine to create individualised treatment plans that consider each aspect of your health. Treatments are tailored to your specific needs and are designed to support your body’s functions, nurturing the entire body system rather than isolating the neurological condition.
Our aim is to help improve quality of life, encouraging confidence in your body’s capacity to heal, so that each session builds towards an empowered sense of well-being and vitality. With each step of your journey, we work to support you in finding confidence in your own ability to heal, and to experience improvements that can help you regain independence and live life more fully.

Your Consultation
Start treatment as soon as possible
The phenomenon of neuroplasticity suggests the potential for nerves to regrow at a faster rate. Initial treatments may yield quicker results; beyond this period, nerve regrowth might occur at a slower pace.
Acupuncture, combined with specific movements, can influence neural pathways
During scalp acupuncture sessions, we guide patients through targeted exercises. The act of engaging muscles during acupuncture may foster stronger connections.
It takes consistency to achieve & keep results
We don’t do miracles, we help you achieve your goals. Don’t expect to be cured in one treatment.
Experience potential benefits from your first visit
Neuro-Acupuncture may offer some immediate effects for certain conditions.
