Restoring balance
Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This ancient medicine is based on the insight that physical and mental complaints arise from disturbances in the energy system of the body. With acupuncture, these disturbances can be corrected and the energy flow in your body is brought back into balance. Acupuncture encourages the body and mind to heal itself.

It can happen that skin complaints go together with hay fever, for example. Then it is in your constitution, such as forms of eczema. This has to do with a hypersensitive reaction of your immune system. The treatment will be on this deeper level and not on the surface with creams. The intention is that prescribed suppressive creams or medication will be less or not at all necessary.
Skin conditions that fall under autoimmune diseases are also treated on the defense and immune system. Together we will also look at things that aggravate your symptoms. For example, stress and season of the year.
Acne has to do with heat in the body due to hormones.
What can acupuncture do?
In Chinese medicine, we almost never work only on the local complaint. We look for the cause and treat at the source of where the imbalance in the body is. This is no different with skin complaints. Through many questions and pulse and tongue diagnosis, I can discover where in the body the balance is lost.
Where necessary we can make dietary adjustments, supplements and possible referral to an herbalist.
How many treatments are needed depends on the nature and severity of your symptoms and how you respond to the treatments.
