INTEGRATIVE WOMEN’S HEALTH

For women who want to understand their body and are ready to listen.

Venus Rising is an integrative practice, specialised in women’s health and wellbeing.  Combining the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a modern understanding of female physiology to honour and support the unique female body. 

TRADTIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

Traditional Chinese Medicine is one of the most ancient healing modalities, still available to us today. It is a holistic mind-body medicine.

Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Working with the meridian system, it evolves around activating and balancing the life force energy, called Qi. With the insertion of small needles in specific acupuncture points, imbalances in the flow or Qi are corrected.

Acupuncture supports the body’s innate self-healing mechanism through the parasympathetic nervous system and its ability to self-regulate in order to balance, heal and revitalise.

In our healing sessions, we apply the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine to modern day life in order to return to a state of balance and wellbeing.

Whereas each body constitution is unique, we place much emphasis on making individual diagnoses and creating personalised treatment plans.
