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 />
