Windy completed the Balance Method Acupuncture (module 1) in Melbourne on 27-29 June 2025. Dr Eileen Han is definitely a wealth of knowledge that Windy has been highly motivated to apply this advanced skill into her treatments.
The Balance Method Acupuncture is a distinctive approach developed by Dr Richard Teh-Fu Tan. It aims to create a balanced flow of energy (Qi) within the body by leveraging the interconnected meridian system to achieve optimal therapeutic results.
A wide range of health conditions including pain (acute and chronic), musculoskeletal issues, and even internal conditions like digestive problems, respiratory disorders, or emotional imbalances are treated distally. Treatment is highly customised based on the patient’s individual profile to not only treat the symptoms but to address the root causes.
- The Balance Principle
This approach emphases on correcting imbalance in the body and harmonising energy flow by choosing points from the interconnected meridians that are opposite or contrasting to the affected area. - System of Symmetry and “Mirror” Points
The Balance Method Acupuncture emphasizes symmetry and the concept that the body is inherently of symmetrical mirror images. When the body is out of balance, it manifests as illness or dysfunction. The acupuncture points chosen are based on the relationship to the problem area to correct these imbalances through symmetry. - Use of distal Points
The Balance Method Acupuncture often focuses on using points in specific regions of the body:
• Upper body points are used to address issues in the lower body, and vice versa.
• The use of distal points minimises the risk of further aggravation to local inflammation as well as the potential of accidental puncture to internal organs. - Emphasis on the Body’s Energy Field
The Balance Method Acupuncture also integrates the idea that the body’s energy field is affected by external forces, emotions, and other imbalances. Treatment is aimed at restoring harmony in this energy field. - Fast and Immediate Results
One of the hallmarks of the Balance Method Acupuncture is its ability to provide quick results, often within the first treatment. Many patients report noticeable improvement in symptoms after only a few minutes of acupuncture.
In essence, The Balance Method Acupuncture is a unique acupuncture approach that strives to bring the body into systematic harmony for optimal health outcomes.
