Conditions We Treat ?
General Pain Relief
Do you get recurrent signs of pain from your body? Pain is a signal in the nervous system that indicates that something might be wrong in your body. Pain can be characterised according to the level of pain, duration and tolerance of the pain.
Knee Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time. Although osteoarthritis can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine.
Osteoarthritis symptoms can usually be managed, although the damage to joints can’t be reversed. Staying active, maintaining a healthy weight and receiving certain treatments might slow progression of the disease and help improve pain and joint function.
Sciatica
Sciatica is nerve pain from an injury or irritation to the sciatic nerve, which originates in your buttock/gluteal area. The sciatic nerve is the longest and thickest (almost finger-width) nerve in the body.
If you have “sciatica,” you experience mild to severe pain anywhere along the path of the sciatic nerve – that is, anywhere from the lower back, through the hips, buttocks and/or down your legs. It can also cause muscle weakness in your leg and foot, numbness in your leg, and an unpleasant tingling pins-and-needles sensation in your leg, foot and toes.
Slipdisc
Slipped Disc better known as Herniated disc is becoming the most common cause of neck pain and back pain in Malaysia. A slipped disc is when a soft cushion of tissue between the bones in your spine pushes out. It’s painful if it presses on nerves. It usually gets better slowly with rest, gentle exercise and painkillers. Disc refer to the rubbery cushion that sit between the individual bones that stack to make our spines. A spinal disk has a soft, jellylike centre known as nucleus encased in a tougher, rubbery exterior known as annulus.

Why Us ?
- Acupuncture therapy has been known as a practice associated with Oriental Medicine and has potential therapeutic procedure for which there is good scientific evidence.
- It was originated in China and is often assumed to be a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Oriental Medicine is usually characterized as having a unique pathophysiological concept of disease, key components of which are the flow of qi, a kind of energy.
- The absence of a clear distinction between body and soul, known as “mind-soul unity (⼼⾝⼀如)” in Kampo Medicine, is also an important characteristic of Oriental Medicine. Based on this unique concept, psychogenic disorders are understood as conditions caused by the abnormal flow of chi; this understanding is sufficient even when Western medicine is unable, through examination of the body or brain using modern technology, to link the condition to a precise cause.
- The concept of qi and the mechanisms that regulate qi are not understood precisely. Nevertheless qi it is an important concept in understanding the human being as a self-regulatory organism. In a simpler way, acupuncture is designed to balance the flow of one’s life force energy, “Qi” by placing the very fine needles at strategic points which lying through specific pathways of body (meridians) to unblock and balance the flow of “Qi”.
How Can We Treat You ?
EMS Therapy
The procedure of electric muscle stimulation involves employing an external electric charge or pulse, often produced by an EMS equipment, to cause muscular contractions. It’s completely safe and proven to be effective. We have various programs that we can help with:
How Does EMS Works ?
The electrodes are applied to the skin just above the muscle you wish to work out. A muscle contraction results from the transmission of an electrical charge to the muscle, which charges the fibres of the muscle. Muscles undergo a similar response during motion and exercise. In other words, it is like strengthening your muscles by simulating your own contraction of the muscle.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. You might feel a little pressure/ sensation (call as “De Qi” sensation – the arrival of energy to the point, or the needling response) as the needle pierces the skin. The needles used are very thin compared to normal needles used for injection.

Acupuncture is extremely safe when practised by a qualified practitioner. Our therapists have an in-depth knowledge of Chinese Medicine and the meridian system as well as anatomy and physiology from a medical perspective. We use sterile single use needles and abide by the Clinical Guidelines of the organisation. Occasionally a small bruise may occur at the site of the needle insertion but this is not usually painful and will clear in a few days.
Before coming for acupuncture, patients are advised to have a light meal. Doing acupuncture on an empty stomach might cause dizziness to some
Once or twice a week for the first few weeks are recommended as the benefits of acupuncture will accumulate when treatments are done more frequently. For treatment purposes, the number of sessions depends on the patient and the condition. Patients with acute conditions (something severe and sudden in onset) may only require 3-6 treatments to heal, whereas chronic conditions (long developing symptoms) may take longer.
Almost everyone can benefit from acupuncture and it is rare for patients to experience side effects from the treatment. However, those with known allergies to metal such as stainless steel, silver, and/or gold might have an adverse reaction to acupuncture. Also, patients who have had transplants must inform our physician before commencing on acupuncture treatment.
Acupuncture is safe during pregnancy, but we wanted to avoid risk at any cost as we are afraid that it might induce early labor. Because there are some acupuncture points that are contraindicated during pregnancy so it is important to inform the practitioner if you are pregnant.
Generally, you will not bleed due to the fineness of the needle. A small spot of blood may appear if the needle punctures a small capillary.
It is very important to continue your medication. There can be serious consequences from suddenly stopping some pharmaceutical drugs. Whilst it is possible to use acupuncture to reduce the need for some medications, this should only be done in full consultation with your medical practitioner.
