⁣The moment right before the ‘magic’ happens. A snapshot of Dr Ling contemplating your unique diagnosis based on taking your pulse. ⠀
⠀
Feeling the pulse is part of our diagnostic tool as Acupuncturists and Chinese Medicine Practitioners. It allows us to feel any irregularities or disharmonies within your body. ⠀
⠀
Along with checking your tongue, palpating parts of your body and going through your health history. These all come together to form an individualised treatment. ⠀
⠀
What signals are your body giving off? ⠀

#nationalimpotenceday is coming up on the Valentine's Day weekend. ⠀
⠀
In light of National Impotence Day we will be raising awareness of the benefits of Acupuncture for erectile dysfunction. We will be offering a 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐮𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 for any new patient to Sustain Health with erectile dysfunction. ⠀
⠀
Acupuncture can tackle erectile dysfunction and its associated conditions such as: ⠀
⠀
► Reduced sex drive⠀
► Soft erections ⠀
► Trouble getting an erection⠀
► Premature ejaculation⠀
► Anxiety⠀
► Depression⠀
► Stress⠀
► Diabetes affecting sexual health⠀
► Medication induced impotence ⠀
⠀
It can be completely normal to fluctuate through impotence. The cause can be often attributed to lifestyle factors and emotions. And other times, it can be more difficult to pinpoint such as medication side effects or other health conditions you might be experiencing. ⠀

⁣𝐖𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐭! What are the different types of needles used for?⠀
⠀
Dr Scott Ling explains…⠀
⠀
For Scalp Acupuncture there are two different types of needles used. One is slightly thicker. Yet they are both still as thin as a strand of hair and can fit 10x into a normal syringe needle head.⠀
⠀
So yes… they are very thin!⠀
⠀
We use ONLY the highest quality needles and they are all SINGLE USE. This ensures the sterility of our treatments.⠀

⁣Join us at the end of the month for a discussion with Dr Iggy Soosay, an Integrative GP who specialises in gut health. ⠀
⠀

⠀
After coming out of medical school in the 1970’s and seeing patients for mostly repeat prescriptions, he started to question the norm and the impact that he was having. ⠀
⠀
𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. Which is when he dived into Nutritional Medicine. How changing the diet, taking some specific vitamin could help some conditions. ⠀
⠀
And he has not looked backed. Since then he has banded together with other doctors accumulating studies, clinical research, data and experience. From there they set up the Australasian College of Nutritional & Environmental Medicine and started educating doctors on the safe use of diet and nutritional supplements.⠀
⠀
And he shares this wealth of knowledge in our upcoming webinar. ⠀
⠀
Where we will talk about: ⠀
► What Integrative or Functional medicine is⠀
► The gut microbiome and the effect on health⠀
► Does the gut microbiome affect other areas of the body⠀
► What is IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and what his approach is⠀
► What is SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and what his approach is⠀

We get tired when we are recovering from any sort of illness. And suffering a stroke is no different. Recovering from a stroke takes a lot of physical, mental and emotional effort, which is why stroke sufferers are left without a lot of energy. Pair that with disrupted sleep due to pain or a newfound insomnia. ⠀
⠀
And it is often in that energy deficient state that stroke survivors are filling up their schedule with physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy and speech therapy. Retraining the brain and the body after a stroke is hard work and the outcomes are often better when we enter into a rehab session refreshed and rested. ⠀
⠀
Neuro-Acupuncture can enhance these other therapies in a variety of ways such as improving swallowing, balance, spasticity and paralysis. But also importantly Neuro-Acupuncture assists with associated symptoms of stroke such as depression, insomnia and energy levels in order to maximise your rehabilitation. ⠀

⠀
For people who have suffered an attack of Bell’s Palsy, they are told that the condition will resolve itself within a few weeks to months. However, it may also linger and be unresponsive to standard treatments. Leading to long term disfigurement. ⠀
⠀
It results from a dysfunctional cranial nerve that is responsible for the movement of the muscles on the face. Making facial expressions difficult such as smiling and controlling the eyes. It can also affect the tear glands and salivary glands. ⠀
⠀
𝐒𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐮𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐥’𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐲?⠀

⁣Imagine you are told you have a degenerative eye condition that has no Western Medicine cure or treatment. That you are slowly going blind.⠀
⠀
That is the reality for those with Retinitis Pigmentosa. It is extremely disheartening to find out that nothing can be done.⠀
⠀
Because of the lack of options from Western Medicine, many patients are seeking out alternative therapies such as Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.⠀
⠀
And a survey of those patients who have tried Acupuncture reported that 61% indicated a “𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧”.⠀
⠀
There is growing science research and clinical studies that support Acupuncture's beneficial effect on visual function in patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa.⠀
