Founded in 1992 McNamara’s Turnpike Clinic is one of the oldest and most
established acupuncture clinics in Clare. With over 50 years of combined experience in medical, health and scientific fields between us, we have observed that if you give yourself the right conditions: healthy and nutritious diet, appropriate exercise, relaxation, and non-invasive treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine,
nutritional therapies, and massage, you will give your body the opportunity for its own natural healing powers to start working to take you to a state of health and recovery.
Acupuncture is part of an ancient and sophisticated form of medical treatment which originated in China but has increasingly spread throughout the world.
It involves the insertion of extremely fine, pre-sterilized, stainless steel needles at predetermined points on the body surface to restore internal health.
In the hands of a fully qualified professional practitioner the use of acupuncture is entirely safe and free of any harmful side-effects. It has stood the test of time over several thousand years and has not been found wanting.
Acupuncture can be used alone or combined with other forms of Traditional Chinese Medicine, commonly referred to as TCM.
Acupuncture and TCM
Acupuncture
forms only one aspect of the whole range of TCM, which can include the following:
Massage
Exercise
Moxibustion: a form of heat
treatment
Dietary therapy:
which is very specialized in TCM terms and involves careful monitoring of food
and drink intake in order to eliminate contributory factors and speed recovery.
Herbal medicine:
this is a very extensive part of TCM and includes the dispensing of various Chinese herbal prescriptions in the forms of natural herbs, pills, tablets, powders and other medical preparations.
Medical advice: this forms a crucial part of TCM and concentrates on eliminating factors in the patient’s lifestyle or daily activities that contribute to the cause or
prolongation of a heath complaint.
Any branch of Chinese medicine can be used alone or in combination with another. For example, the we will frequently combine acupuncture treatment with massage, dietary therapy and medical advice.
One of the most outstanding features of TCM is that it can tailor the treatment to
fit the complaint. It is also very compatible and complementary to Western
medicine.
