What is Five Element Acupuncture?
Five Element Acupuncture is an ancient system of medicine, originating in China, dating back thousands of years. It was bought to both Europe and the US by Professor JR Worsley in the 20th century after he became a Master in the East in the 1950s. For thousand of years, the Chinese have recognised that the Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water exist in everything, everyone, and are essential for life. These elements are linked to organs of the body, they rely on and support each other to ensure good quality of health. Each element has its own unique properties which are displayed by season, organ, colour, sound, smell and emotion. All five elements within us must be in harmony and balance to support the body’s natural healing system and bring optimum health and well-being.

“Aine introduced me to Five Element Acupuncture and I guess life has not been the same since. How it helps my mental and physical well-being is something I have never experienced before. For me it is the fact that nothing extra is used except the body’s own natural healing system which Aine shares with me how & why”
