Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a complementary medical practice. It consists of the insertion of fine needles into the body at specific points shown to be effective in alleviating pain or to help treat various health conditions.
At Chadstone Acupuncture Centre, acupuncture is applied holistically — with Dr. Xiong drawing on both her Western medical training and her Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge to identify and address the underlying cause of your symptoms, not just the surface presentation.

Electroacupuncture
Electroacupuncture is a form of acupuncture where a small electric current is passed between pairs of acupuncture needles. According to some acupuncturists, this practice augments the use of regular acupuncture, can restore health and well-being, and is particularly good for treating pain.
The electrical stimulation extends and intensifies the therapeutic signal at each needle point, making it especially effective for musculoskeletal pain, nerve pain, and recovery support.

Moxibustion (Moxa)
Moxibustion or Moxa is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves burning an herb called Mugwort, to promote healing. Practitioners use moxa to warm body regions and acupuncture points along the meridians.
The purpose of moxa is to stimulate the flow of qi and blood, stimulate the internal systems (digestive, respiratory, gynaecological, and others), boost overall immune function, and maintain general health. It is often used in combination with acupuncture for conditions that respond well to warming.

Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine. A therapist places special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People seek cupping for many purposes, including help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being — and as a type of deep-tissue release.
The suction created by the cups gently lifts the tissue, promoting circulation in the area and encouraging the body's natural healing response.

Gua Sha (Scraping)
Gua sha is a natural, alternative therapy. Practitioners scrape your skin with a massage tool to stimulate microcirculation of the soft tissue, which increases blood flow and improves circulation. Gua sha is also thought to help break up stagnant energy, reduce inflammation, relieve chronic pain, and promote healing.
The technique is applied with deliberate, firm strokes using a smooth tool. A characteristic reddening of the skin often follows — this is a normal response and typically resolves within a few days.

Magnetic Therapy
Magnetic therapy is an alternative therapy that uses magnets of varying sizes and strengths placed on the body to relieve pain and treat disease. Magnetic fields are thought to stimulate metabolism, increase the amount of oxygen available to cells, and support the body's own healing processes.
It is most commonly used as a complementary approach for joint disorders, back problems, and conditions that benefit from improved local circulation. Dr. Xiong incorporates it as part of a broader treatment plan where appropriate.

Meridian Massage (Tui Na)
Meridian massage is derived from the ancient medicinal art of acupuncture. Rather than inserting needles, a meridian massage therapist applies pressure to the meridians of Qi — working the same network of pathways that acupuncture targets, but through manual pressure and bodywork.
Known in Chinese as Tui Na, this method is used to restore the free flow of Qi, ease tension, improve joint mobility, and address both physical and functional complaints. It can be used as a stand-alone treatment or in combination with other modalities.
