Acupuncture
Dr Chen is a qualified GP. She uses predominantly laser acupuncture which is painless and safe for patients of all ages including children and pregnant women. Needle acupuncture is also available on request.
A course of acupuncture generally involves 10 treatments at weekly-fortnightly intervals depending on the response of the individual. Once the symptoms have been effectively alleviated, booster treatments at various intervals are beneficial for maintenance.
