Rusel believes passionately in helping people to help themselves. Your consultation will take a holistic approach and look at diet, stress management, exercise, sleep and emotional wellbeing. You will leave the clinic with some form of homework, be it stretches, diet, stress management or just getting good sleep; so you can begin to help yourself heal. Rusel's approach gets results. A common story we hear is someone who might have been in pain for over 20 years as a result of an accident or injury and no other practitioner has helped. Rusel gets results where other people haven't. Colds and flu happen, but herbal medicine can lessen the duration and symptoms of them. Treat a cold when you feel that first tickle and you can turn things around quickly without the need for antibiotics and so help keep your gut microbiome healthy. Rusel is a massage therapist of forty years experience and recognises the importance of postural integration and the effect it has on general health. Would you like to grow a herb in your garden that you can use in a tea for health? Rusel will show you how. Learn stretches and meditation to help you deal with the stress of every day life. Lose weight with Rusel's own weight loss program. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are suitable for all ages and all problems. Gentle, effective, friendly.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is based on an ancient philosophy that describes the universe, and the body, in terms of two complementary opposite forces: yin and yang. When these forces are in balance, the body is healthy. Energy, called "qi" flows along specific pathways, called meridians, throughout the body. This constant flow of energy keeps the yin and yang forces balanced. However, if the qi gets blocked, like water in a blocked pipe, the disruption and imbalance can lead to pain, lack of function, or illness. Chinese healing therapies can release blocked qi in the body, stimulate function and evoke the body's natural healing responses. Modern research has demonstrated these techniques and therapies can help to resolve pain, improve sleep, digestive function, organ function, circulation and many chronic and acute ailments. At Spring of Life Therapy we recognise traditional Chinese medicine as a complementary healing modality that is continually discovering new applications of this ancient wisdom in a modern world.
