Highly effective<br />
treatment brings<br />
Special offer - one treatment for<br />
arthritis at half price for the first 10 people<br />
who make an appointment before april 6.<br />
‘amazing’ results<br />
for arthritis patient<br />
Anyone that suffers from arthritis will know the pain, discomfort<br />
and sheer inconvenience this can cause in day-to-day life.<br />
However, thanks to a highly effective treatment<br />
offered by Chinese health practitioner Dr Lan Xiao,<br />
they can get fast, and very often immediate relief.<br />
Lan developed the treatment, known as<br />
‘acupuncture without needles’, which she describes<br />
as being similar to reflexology in that the problem<br />
area on the body is determined through pressure,<br />
but is much more accurate.<br />
One client who was thrilled with the results of<br />
this treatment, is Corinna Cornelius. Corinna was<br />
having problems with her right hand after she overused<br />
it following an injury to her left hand and it<br />
became arthritic.<br />
“I couldn’t close my hand up and make a fist, and<br />
it was also very painful, especially if I knocked it.<br />
This also made it very difficult to do everyday things<br />
like picking up a cup of tea or cleaning my teeth,”<br />
Corinna said.<br />
After hearing about Lan’s treatment from a friend,<br />
Corinna decided to give it a try, and was thrilled<br />
with the results.<br />
“The difference after one treatment was amazing.<br />
My hand wasn’t painful and I could make a fist.”<br />
A further six treatments followed, and Corinna<br />
said while her hand was still slightly stiff, it was<br />
improving every day and things were back to<br />
normal. Following a holiday in Australia, she was<br />
due to go back to Lan for a check-up, but didn’t<br />
think she would need any further treatment.<br />
“I love her skills. What she did was just amazing –<br />
and there were no needles involved!”<br />
Lan uses acupuncture without needles to treat a<br />
wide range of injuries and medical conditions and is<br />
now ACC registered.<br />
Dr Lan is offering one treatment for arthritis<br />
at half price for the first 10 people who make an<br />
appointment before April 6. Her clinic is located<br />
at 108 Sawyers Arms Road, and her hours are<br />
