View(s):

Used for centuries in Asia to treat everything from migraines, muscle strains and sleeplessness to digestion issues, a chronic illness, or simply stress, acupuncture can create a state of relaxation and wellness. And to make it more affordable, Colombo South Acupuncture Clinic is offering the treatment at its new location at No. 35/1, 1/1, Jayasevana Mawatha, Kalubowila, Dehiwala. Acupuncture is an alternative medicine treatment involving placing thin needles just beneath the skin’s surface on various points all over the body to achieve therapeutic effects and stimulates well-being.

Former acupuncture physician, Medicine Alternativa at Colombo South Teaching Hospital, Kalubowila, Dr. Prabath Mudugama would be treating a range of illnesses at the clinic which was opened on Friday 29. “Acupuncture treatments are becoming more accepted by the public and by physicians. The acupuncture procedures have been effective in a variety of areas in the health care field. In further research, studies on acupuncture treatment will not be only major for the health and welfare of the patient but also important for the advancement of medical science” Dr. Mudugama said.

The ancient Chinese are credited with the real development of this healing art. However, the Japanese and Koreans also made significant contributions to both its ancient practice and modern scientific research. The Europeans, most notably the French, have also been involved in the development of acupuncture during the last 300 years. As acupuncture helps to unlock and balance the energy circuits of the body, the patient can enjoy several side effects which include better sleeping, more energy, better blood circulation, deeper breathing, longevity and a youthful appearance. The treatment method is popular in many countries across Europe, the US, UK, Canada and Australia.
