Acupuncture

Evidence-based Acupuncture Research on Pain, Autism, Infertility, Insomnia, Weight-loss, Heart health, Digestive health.

In the decade since 2010, China has published nine of its most influential research articles on acupuncture, three of which uses Han TEAS (needle free acupuncture) device and treatment protocols on: chronic angina, migraine, and osteoarthritis.

HANS TEAS treatment protocols are suitable for patients under the guidance of acupuncturists who have understood evidence-based acupuncture and have been trained and understand neuroscience and the effects of acupuncture on the human body’s various tissues, systems and organs, especially the nervous system and the Central Nervous System mechanisms.

What is a HANS Machine? Is HANS a TENS?

HANS® is similar but more advanced compared to a TENS machine. HANS has been used as a standard TEAS (Transcutaneous Electro Acupuncture Stimulator) device for numerous research studies.

In general, health problems that respond to acupuncture treatment are likely to respond to HANS treatment with the benefit of convenience and cost effectiveness. 

From extensive scientific research and clinical practices, HANS is shown to be effective in alleviating pain and narcotic withdrawal symptoms.

As practitioners, we are bridging the gap between different cultures. Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine is based on the traditional wisdom of observing nature, respecting the cosmic rhythms, and pursuing the balance and harmony of the body.

We do not focus on specific diseases as each individual can present with signs & symptoms that differ significantly to other individuals who suffer from the same disease, therefore the focus is on the individual rather than the disease. Each individual is unique, therefore the healing methods we provide targets the individual’s health needs. 

We provide a means to connect oneself to one’s deep inner Self, achieving focus and peace of mind, through meditation and Qi-gong. We are endeavouring to help people in 21 century who are under tremendous stress and depressive lifestyles to restore balance within and improve their well being.

The purpose of the Advanced Telehealth system is to assist the individual in the process of self-healing. We are the coordinators and facilitators that will help the individual take control of their health and well being.

I can’t recommend Jason highly enough. Not only has he great knowledge and experience but he also demonstrates levels of care that I have rarely encountered in my healing journey.

I was taking HANS needle-free treatment for my sciatic pain at home for 3 weeks. Jason provided the device, showed us how to use it, which acupuncture points to apply to and what frequency. I had immediate relief for a couple of hours after each treatment (3 times a day) and a long-term effect as well. Highly recommend it.

Well very pleased we have finished our Isolations – 3 out of 4 of us got Omicron – we chose not to self isolate between our own family. As we could not imagine being without our kids close by.. Been a few days now, that we could leave home, but it still feels weird to be back out and about.. Our symptoms were high temps, head cold, dry cough, and exhaustion. BEST advise… is rest rest rest… Other than two panadol x 2 – I relied on Chinese herbs from Kapiti Acupuncture. Cannot rave highly enough.. boosted my immune and reversed the onslaught, when it started to go down to my chest. Other friends not so lucky – terrible aches and pain.. so don’t think – I wanna just get it over with and get Ok – there are some very very sick people that I know – take care peeps, remember rest rest rest. Lie down and watch tv, netflix, read, everytime I tried to work or do something my temp rocketed….
