Practice

Welcome to Essential Therapia a place for complementary health treatments at my private practice in East Dulwich, London. The key to bringing balance back into your life.

Acupuncture - Traditional Chinese Medicine is a holistic system of medicine which treats the person and not just the symptoms through acupuncture, herbs, nutrition, remedial exercise and massage. Originating in China more than 2000 years ago and continually updated in light of clinical practice and research, it is practiced in China’s hospitals alongside Western medicine. Beneficial for a wider variety of injuries, disorders and illnesses, including: sprains, strains, back pain, period pain, sciatica, depression, acne, eczema, irritable bowel syndrome, ME/CFS and more.

Cosmetic acupuncture – combines Western and Chinese approaches to rejuvenate and lift the face and also help reduce acne, and cellulite.

Aromatherapy - uses pure essential oils, derived from plants, with massage techniques. The essential oils have powerful healing properties and work by entering through the skin and lungs (through inhalation) into the bloodstream to be carried throughout the body. The essential oil aroma stimulates the brain centres linked with memories and emotions producing positive psychological effects. Aromatherapy can help both physical and psychological problems, but is particularly beneficial for stress related conditions. The effects of stress on the body are now recognised as contributing to many health problems, as it reduces the body's ability to prevent disease. Regular massage effectively reduces stress levels, and stimulates the body's own natural ability to heal. Aromatherapy can help many conditions including: Anxiety; Depression; Insomnia; Headaches; Muscular aches and pains; Coughs and colds; Irritable Bowel Syndrome; Period pains and PMT

Energetics Aromatherapy – integrates the powerful aroma of plants with acupuncture, to work synergistically. Especially beneficial for those apprehensive about acupuncture needles.

Therapeutic Massage - is a healing art and everyone can benefit, whether to maintain health, reduce stress, improve sports performance, to treat a specific condition or you may just feel like some 'me' time. Massage helps relax and tone the muscles and skin, stimulating the flow of blood and encouraging lymph drainage. This allows more oxygen and nutrients to reach body cells and gets rid of metabolic wastes, thereby helping all body systems to function more efficiently. Some of the benefits: Soothes aches and releases tension; Increases joint mobility; Improves circulation; Boosts the immune system and Eliminates toxins.
