September Special - Cupping Therapy at Paul's Acupuncture Clinic
Kia Ora, my name is Paul and I am an acupuncturist at Paul's Acupuncture Clinic on 21 Hollyford Drive, Clover Park.
We have a special 50% discount at our clinic for this September to make it more accessible for our community to invest in their health, especially during these tough times.
What is cupping therapy?
Cupping therapy involves the use of small glass cups and the use of a heat source that is then placed on the skin for a few minutes to create suction. The use of cupping is similar to a deep tissue massage but less force or pressure is used to create the same effects. We often use plastic cups depending on where the cups are placed on the body.
Cupping helps relax muscle tension, pulls out toxins that are embedded in your body, helps relieve pain, helps remove inflammation, and increases circulation by improving the flow of blood and Qi. This is great for back pain, tight traps or shoulder pain.
If you are after further information, please check my facebook (@PaulAcuClinic) or instagram (paul_acupuncture) or contact me on 021 496 524.
We also treat other conditions such as sports injury, all pain conditions, chronic fatigue, digestive disorders, hypo/hypertesion, insomnia, stress and weight loss.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
