Acupuncture, one of the oldest and most commonly used medical procedures in the world, has now been medically proven as an effective treatment for infertility. Although often described as a means of pain relief, acupuncture is in fact used to treat people with a wide range of illnesses. Traditionally, acupuncture is a holistic approach to the management of disease as well as the day-to-day maintenance of health.

By inserting fine needles into the channels of energy, an acupuncturist can stimulate the body’s own healing response and help restore its natural balance. Dr. Zhijin Tang as a Bachelor of Medicine had many years practice in hospitals in China before coming to the UK, he is now a registered acupuncturist with the NHS Directory and HSA Healthcare. Dr Tang specialises in treating various skin disorders and gynecological conditions, such as Eczema, Psoriasis, Allergies, PMT and Menopause.

“Depending on the way acupuncture is applied, the patient may immediately feel the benefit of the treatment. For pain relief, sometimes there can be dramatic improvement after just one session, whereas a series of acupuncture treatments are usually required to improve fatigue and insomnia”, said Dr Tang. With nearly 10 years practice in the UK, Dr Tang has also proven that acupuncture can effectively help with conditions such as: arthritis, backache, anxiety, stress, depression, IBS, alcohol and nicotine addictions, sciatica, sports injuries, impotence and low sperm count.
