Effective treatment<br />
for many types of pain<br />
Complementary medicine is<br />
becoming increasingly sought<br />
after in New Zealand as people<br />
become aware of the many<br />
different methods of treating pain and ill<br />
health that are available here.<br />
Christchurch-based Chinese health<br />
practitioner Lan Xiao has developed a<br />
method of treatment, which she says has<br />
as an immediate affect on a wide variety of<br />
pains and health conditions. It is known<br />
as ‘acupuncture without needles’.<br />
Lan describes it as being similar to<br />
reflexology in that the problem area on<br />
the body is determined through pressure,<br />
but is much more accurate.<br />
Trained as a medical practitioner in<br />
China, Lan came to New Zealand in 1992<br />
and began practising acupuncture in<br />
1995. From that discipline she created her<br />
acupuncture without needles, and uses<br />
it to treat people of all ages with many<br />
different types of pain in all parts of the<br />
body. This can include arthritic pain, MS,<br />
and pain from injury.<br />
“For example, the treatment has been<br />
very successful for people who have<br />
painful joints caused by arthritis,” Lan<br />
says.<br />
Acupuncture without needles is also<br />
effective in restoring energy levels,<br />
she says.<br />
“As people age their energy is reduced,<br />
and this can lead to other health<br />
problems. The acupuncture without<br />
needles treatment is like the body’s<br />
battery being charged up again, so their<br />
energy levels are restored, which in turn<br />
helps overcome their health problems.”<br />
Lan also uses it to treat depression<br />
and anxiety, and says it can help with<br />
addiction problems as well.<br />
“After the treatment the person has no<br />
cravings – because it treats the cause of<br />
the addiction.”<br />
She says the results are immediate,<br />
though people may need several<br />
treatments, depending on the extent<br />
of their health problem, and while it<br />
is slightly painful for few moments,<br />
everyone can tolerate it.<br />
Lan Xiao’s website, www.<br />
drlansreflexologynetwork.co.nz, includes<br />
videos of people whose health problems<br />
have been overcome after receiving the<br />
treatment.<br />
Her clinic is located at 108 Sawyers<br />
Arms Road, and her hours are Monday,<br />
Wednesday and Friday from 12pm to<br />
5pm. To discuss your health issues or<br />
