Acupressure/Tuina
Acupressure, called Tui Na in Chinese, balances the body's energy by applying pressure to specific points along energy channels. A practitioner uses her hands to give a serial of manipulations to achieve ralaxation and theraputic effects. the location of the contact is important.
​
Some people like firm, strong pressure, especially in areas where muscles are tight. A practitioner can adjust the amount of pressure to suit a client's personal preference, but the effectiveness of the work does not depend on the amount of pressure.
Acupressure and acupuncture use the same theory to select the points used in a session. While some acupuncturists include hands-on massage and hands-on assessment as part of their treatment, most do not. This initial massage prepares the body to receive the work with specific points, increasing the effectiveness of the work. It allows us to reduce stress and strengthen the body's natural healing ability.

WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE?​
Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and to improve functioning. This is done by inserting needles and applying heat or electrical stimulation at very precise acupuncture points.
​
HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE WORK?
The classical Chinese explanation is that channels of energy run in regular patterns through the body and over its surface. These energy channels, called meridians, are like rivers flowing through the body to irrigate and nourish the tissues. An obstruction in the movement of these energy rivers is like a dam that backs up in others.
The meridians can be influenced by needling the acupuncture points; the acupuncture needles unblock the obstructions at the dams, and reestablish the regular flow through the meridians. Acupuncture treatments can therefore help the body's internal organs to correct imbalances in their digestion, absorption, and energy production activities, and in the circulation of their energy through the meridians.
The modern scientific explanation is that needling the acupuncture points stimulates the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will either change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body's own internal regulating system.
The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture results in stimulating the body's natural healing abilities, and in promoting physical and emotional well-being.
​​
WHAT IS THE SCOPE OF ACUPUNCTURE?
Acupuncture is a system which can influence three areas of health care:
1 promotion of health and well-being,
2 prevention of illness,
3 treatment of various medical conditions.
If you have questions about a specific illness or disorder , you can usually have your questions answered by acupuncturists at herbland.

Not all of the herb drinks taste nice, anyway the result worth it. You can add some honey or sugar to adjust the taste (not apply to diabetic). To get the best results, please follow these simple steps:
1. Empty all the contents of one bag into a saucepan (don’t use an aluminium which is not good for health).
2. Add about 1.5 - 2 pints of cold water to cover the herbs completely and soak it for half an hour.
3. Bring to the boil, then simmer for about 20 minutes (About two teacups of liquid remained).
4. Drain the herbal liquid equally into two cups and dispose the boiled herbs.
5. Drink one cup warmly in the evening; put the other cup in the fridge, covered. Warm it in the following morning before drink it.
6. Repeat the above process every day.
